While Chicago isn’t necessarily spiraling out of control, they haven’t really put together multiple good games in a row. When they won four straight, they also lost four straight almost immediately after.
The Bucks, on the other hand, are red hot, beating great teams like the Clippers and Raptors.
Those points aside, the Bucks are just a better team than the Bulls, as hard as that may be to realize. It’s been a long time since Milwaukee’s had an advantage over Chicago, but with their young core and able veterans, the Bucks have a solid squad that fits and plays pretty well together.
The Bulls’ roster, thanks to the front office, isn’t built correctly, but that’s a story for a different time.
Especially with the injuries to Felicio and Wade, the Bulls are simply short on talented players playing meaningful minutes. Add that to the fact that Fred Hoiberg is most likely a bad NBA coach and fails to create consistent rotations and you end up with the losses to the Sixers.
The Bulls just aren’t good, and the sooner we accept that, the sooner we can move forward.

But for now, we’ll lose to the Bucks, probably tumble our way into the eighth seed and lose to LeBron and the Cavs in five games. It’s the Bulls’ way.
