On Monday, the NBA and Chicago Bulls released the 2019-20 schedule. Let’s take a look at some of the highlights. It’s August, two months from the start of the NBA regular season and the NBA offseason keeps ticking along. If you’re a Chicago Bulls fan, you’ve traveled from the NBA Lottery (where we all discovered that tanking does not in fact work very well) to the NBA Draft to free…
“The Shrug” – Michael Jordan buries the Portland Trail Blazers with an insane shooting display – #mjmondays Michael Jordan scoring a lot of points in an NBA game wasn’t the story. It’s what he did. A lot. Remember though, this was 1992, before Stephen Curry, before the pull-up 3-point shot became as normal as coffee with breakfast. While MJ was the greatest ever, he wasn’t known as an outside shooter,…

The Shot that elevated Michael Jordan toward greatness while burying the Cleveland Cavaliers There’s just something about this sequence – Michael Jordan fighting to receive the inbound pass from Brad Sellers, the desperation facing both teams, the fans hanging on the edge of their seats – it’s simply just one of those moments in sports history. We’ll never forget Jordan’s exuberant celebration as Cleveland Cavaliers guard Craig Ehlo crumples to the…
Team USA opens training camp Monday for this summer’s World Cup in Asia, should Zach LaVine be on the roster? It turns out that NBA players really have little interest in playing for Team USA this summer. Julius Randle, Landry Shamet and Montrezl Harrell are just the latest to drop out. We’re still waiting for Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine‘s to get his invite. It’s not so much that we…
Zach LaVine and newly-extended shooting guard CJ McCollum of the Portland Trail Blazers might actually be on the same level, here’s how. It’s safe to say, the NBA is essentially printing money these days. The Chicago Bulls might not pull in major free agents, but they are paying Otto Porter Jr. $27.25 million for 2019-20 and are on the hook for Zach LaVine for $19.5 million for the upcoming season…

What’s better than starting off your week with Michael Jordan highlights? Actually, nothing. So here’s to #mjmondays on BullsHype! Embed from Getty Images In honor of the greatest to ever do it, Monday’s will be Michael Jordan Mondays or – #mjmondays. It seems only right, considering MJ was the reason I ever became a Chicago Bulls fan, back in the early ’90s. Back then the Bulls were on WGN almost…
Kris Dunn has been the subject of rumors throughout the offseason. What if the Chicago Bulls hold on to him, for now at least? It was never a secret that the Chicago Bulls front office wanted to upgrade the point guard position this offseason. After all, Bulls executive vice president of basketball operations John Paxson came out firing at the onset of the summer. He kicked off the offseason by…
The Chicago Bulls have made some key additions this summer, but will they lead to a playoff berth in 2020? For devoted fans, there is usually a disconnect between hopes, dreams and reality in the NBA offseason. They cling to hope (sometimes delusion), pleading for their teams to make the big free agency splash or the blockbuster trade. For the Chicago Bulls, there is no escaping this plight. The fans…
