Bulls Gold

The Bulls fell short to a comeback from the Knicks to lose 133-127. We get into Caleb Wilson's flashes in this game, and what's excited us the most about him. Then we shift into bounce back games from Buzelis and Giddey, and whether they're starting to get more comfortable in the team's offense. We give props to Jalen Smith, and wonder whether he's a potential extension candidate. We also get into the Bulls brutal upcoming schedule and a look around the rest of the league to see who will be in the mix for relegation. 

The Bulls got ambushed quickly in their season opener against the Raptors. Swish Theory's Larro Golden joins us to make sense out of a game that offered very little optimism for the Bulls hopeful player development this season. We start with Tiago Splitter and Larro expresses disappointment in his preparation, structure and overall readiness as a coach. We get into Caleb Wilson's play style and wonder how the team can get him higher percentage scoring opportunities. Is Matas Buzelis ready to take a leap this season, or do we need to be more realistic with our expectations? And how can the Bulls bounce back against the Milwaukee Bucks Friday?

What did we make of the Bulls dress rehearsal against Milwaukee and the expected rotations the Bulls will have? We get into Caleb Wilson's playstyle during preseason, and where we see room for the team to make his NBA transition easier. We also talk Dailyn Swain and Noa Essengue's roles on the team to start the year. We're also complimentary of two of the team's bench players in Tre Jones and Leonard Miller, and wonder what their future looks like going forward with the Bulls.
