4 Key Stats Prove Why the Chicago Bulls Are SHOCKING the NBA | Josh Giddey’s All-Star Rise?
The Chicago Bulls keep proving the doubters wrong — and their dominant win over the New York Knicks was the latest example.
In this episode of Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down 4 key stats that show exactly why the Bulls’ hot start is no fluke:
🧠 31 assists on 45 made shots — Chicago’s unselfish play is elite.
💪 54 points in the paint — the Bulls are bullying teams inside.
🎯 35 free throws attempted — aggressive offense paying off.
🔥 Josh Giddey’s All-Star-level performance continues (22/8/8 through 5 games).
Haize also reacts to listener voicemails about the Bulls’ playoff chances, Coby White’s role, Kevin Huerter’s future, and why this defensive culture feels different.

This is the most fun Bulls basketball we’ve seen in years — movement, energy, and real team chemistry. ❤🔥
How far do you think this group can go if they keep playing like this?
Playoffs? Second round? Dark horse contender? 👀
Sound off below — and shout out to everyone who dropped voicemails on today’s show. 🎙 #BullsNation
I sent a vm before the season started predicting the bulls to be top 10 in offense and defense. Idk if you remember but damn I’m happy I was right so far
If they can keep finding ways to win, and tighten the defense up, I say Dark Horse. SeeRED.
Hopefully the Bulls can keep this winning streak alive. The Bulls I feel have a good chance this season to make the playoffs
Big game at the garden tonight let’s take advantage
Billy went from looking like an overpaid has been to a genius in one off-season 😂
I saw this coming last April. Although, I've had my share of misses when it comes to who'll step up and take their games to the next level for the Bulls (I apologize for doubting Patrick Williams) , I disagreed with most NBA Heads when they predicted a 7th to 11th place finish in the East this season. The Bulls finished 15-5 in their final 20 games last season. If they got off to a better start of the season they would've easily been a top 6 seed in the East. But like most of the Zach LaVine years the Bulls would often find themselves digging out of a sub .500 hole and by mid Dec they are all but playing for next summer's draft lottery.
I noticed the immediate impact Tre Jones brought to the team prior to him injuring his foot. And if Tre and Ayo had not been injured the Bulls would've been in the playoffs instead of The Heat.
This roster just fits together and when Coby, Dalen, Noa, and Zach work their way into the rotation this Bulls squad is going to be up there with that team in OKC as long as injuries don't happen to key players.
Tonight is gonna exciting. People still talking about they got lucky. And still not getting it. And still not giving the credit they deserve. They are working that floor like nobody's business.
Just had a dream, bulls lost to Atlanta 203-75😭😂
Bulls of the 90’s were great because of defense.
Yes I want to see what will Chicago bulls do as well when they lose I hope it does not happen tonight it will say a lot about this team if we can beat new York again at they house
Just thinking about this after the first caller. I think Coby will fit in perfectly with what we’re doing. What I hope for though is that he sees what Tre is doing and he can mimic that times 10.
What I mean is focusing more on getting to the bucket and letting that open up spots he can kick out to when the defense collapses. The other part of that too is the defense. Feels like Coby took a sought step back on defense last year but we need him to at least be scrappy like Tre. I see no good reason why Coby can’t keep that intensity up while bringing in his scoring but really need him to lean into those two things when he comes back
This is the most confident I've ever seen Patrick Williams. He's playing much more free.
No ball stopping iso scorers for the opposition to game plan for. Okoro a career 47/35% shooter, so he should trend toward those numbers. Giddey has to start hitting his free throws. I think he will given his career %. He was the best rebounding guard in the NBA last year, too. Today's game: NY has a talented, highly-paid starting 5. They could beat the Bulls on talent, but the CAN'T outhustle the Bulls ever.
Contender? Maybe not yet, but Noa/Collins/Coby could make them that
I think this second Knicks game is going to be our true test, we've been largely punching teams in the mouth so far and they don't know what hit them, but listening to Mike Brown's comments, he's probably going to implement schemes to limit what we do best next game. If we can overcome that, there's nothing stopping me from believing that this team is legit
I gotta admit it's crazy going to check out the NBA standings and seeing the Bulls not only lead their Division but the entire Eastern Conference!
Go Bulls! 🏀💪🏾
3 things concern me for tonight's game at New York:
1. Being that the Bulls will be on the road….I fear that the turnovers will rear its ugly head.
2. The refs.
3. Injuries to the Bulls.
The more I think about it, the more seems like a blessing in disguise that Coby isn’t playing right now. It’s allowed the team to gel in a way that I don’t think would’ve been possible if he was. It reminds me of how the grizzlies were playing well without Ja Morant. When he does come back though, I think he’s gonna fit it well. He will draw double teams as one commenter here stated and it’ll be up to Coby to make the right decision when that happens. As long as the ball keeps moving and they continue to get the best available shot out of each possession, they should be more than all right.
Where did you get your lid at?
STRAIGHT, STRAIGHT FIRE!
I have to get myself one – A.S.A.P.
