SGA "gets up" for Clipper games.
"You shouldn't have traded me" type stuff.
Finally some good press about my Bulls! Love to see it
Technically a blowout is 20 points or more. The clips lost by 19.
Josh's 3's are a proven commodity. Full year last season he went for %38. League average is %36.
Man Joel's voice is messing w/ my head. Him and Jordan Poole sound the exact same 😂.
Thanks for giving the Bulls some love guys!
No. It’s “TOO LATE” for perspectives to matter! The league will bend the Knee regardless! They really 7-0🚨
I’m a big believer that the Bulls can be a top ten team! Giddy up Bulls…
Bulls are 6-1 best starting record since Jordan, Pippen and Rodman was there – yeah take them seriously 😂
teams can beat the bucks when Refs let you play Defense on Giannis. Watch at home vs Bulls on Firady they will shoot 40 FT's WHile Giannis does his 1 dribble +4 step drives from 1/2 court. Just watch the game you will see it. Bulls fans see it every year.
Didn't know Lorenzi was so young because his writing is so mature. He's going to grow with this young Bulls team!
Nah
Giddey really makes this team go. MVP candidate early this season
The thunder schedule has been completely trash let’s be honest man, the only playoff team they’ve played is Houston.
Coby White is such big part of our gaurd rotation. Tre Jones coming off the bench is gonna be major he'll be able to have better production
Regarding the question in the title for this video, in my honest and unbiased opinion. Yes, it's time to take the Bulls seriously 😎
Great content
Bulls are gonna win 47 games
And the Bulls haven't even played their best shooter, Coby, and their #2 center, Zach Collins, who was monster in the preseason.
After such abysmal election results in No York City, its great to see the Bulls persevere. Americas team.
The Bulls didn't even lead that game until they won it. Crazy! As a Chicago Bulls fan, it's been a really tough 30 years. But, I believe that the Bulls will win 50 games or more. If they can stay healthy and keep the style going, they're going to be competitive in the east.
National media starting to realize that Josh Giddey is him
43 wins this season? Nigga must be out of his mind. Bulls projected 50-plus wins this season. Billy will be Coach of the Year, Giddey will be the MIP or All-NBA first Team, and Ayo will be the 6MOTY.
you guys got a new subscriber, wish I knew about you guys earlier.
They are 21 and 5 plus the last 20 games of last season…. they're real
And elsewhere… Not good, fam.
I've been having a great time watching Bulls games but the issue with starting strong is it's nowhere near as important as finishing strong in sports. My Cavs started 15-0 last season and looked amazing. But they ended the season kind of poorly and looked underwhelming by the second round.
They both did this without three of their top eight players.
How are the Lakers though?
Don't underestimate the impact of Ayo Dusunmo when he returns.
0:30 in and you admit you didn’t know LA was on a B2B. How do these guys get paid to do this. Sounds small but it’s crazy to me. I’d kill for this job
Giddey is a monster. Pass of the year, so far…Giddey's 3pt % has improved EVERY year of his career. I KNEW Vuc was playing possum in preseason. His body looks great for his age. Chicago has already beaten most of the "better" teams in the East.
Wait till Coby White come back the league really in trouble
Just to think, we would've been 7-0 if it wasn't for the Refs in that last NY Knicks game.
