CHGO Bulls Podcast: Trading Zach LaVine - Which NBA teams are real options for the Bulls?
25/04/2024 Duration: 01h03minThe CHGO Bulls crew review potential trading partners as the Chicago Bulls will again shop Zach LaVine this offseason. NBC Sports Chicago’s KC Johnson affirmed that trading LaVine will be a “focal point” for Arturas Karnisovas this summer. Given the cold market for Zach at the deadline, his existing contract and injury issues, and the Bulls’ cap situation, which NBA teams could feasibly make a deal for LaVine? Matt, Big Dave and Will discuss possible destinations for the restless two-time All Star. If the Magic flame out in the first round, will they want Zach’s scoring prowess? What about the Kings, who got bounced from the Play-In Tournament after a promising 2022-23 campaign? What kind of return - if any - should AK be seeking for LaVine? Or will he be willing to attach an asset to Zach just to move off his contract?SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/CHGOSportsWEBSITE: http://allCHGO.com/BUY MERCH: http://CHGOLocker.com FOLLOW ON SOCIAL: Twitter: @CHGO_Bulls / @Bulls_Peck / @BawlSports / @will_gottliebIn

CHGO Bulls Podcast: Bulls' playoff dreams shattered in embarrassing loss to Heat
20/04/2024 Duration: 01h14minThe CHGO Bulls crew break down the Bulls 112-91 loss to the Miami Heat in the NBA Play-In Tournament on Friday night. After hopes were raised with their dominant win over the Hawks, the Bulls proved once again just how consistently inconsistent they are.

Plus, the guys have a wide-ranging conversation about the state of the franchise entering this offseason. Is Billy Donovan the problem? Is Arturas Karnisovas on a cold seat that should be hot? And will anything ever change as long as the Reinsdorfs own this team and take advantage of this loyal fanbase while embracing mediocrity?SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/CHGOSportsWEBSITE: http://allCHGO.com/BUY MERCH: http://CHGOLocker.comFOLLOW ON SOCIAL:Twitter: @CHGO_Bulls / @Bulls_Peck / @BawlSports / @will_gottliebInstagram: @CHGO_SportsGET OUR FREE NEWSLETTER: http://www.allchgo.com/n

CHGO Bulls Podcast: PLAY-IN TOURNAMENT PREVIEW! What are the keys to Bulls taking down Hawks?
16/04/2024 Duration: 01h02minThe CHGO Bulls crew dive deep into the matchup between the Chicago Bulls and Atlanta Hawks for the win-or-go-home Play-In Tournament game on Wednesday night! The Bulls took 2 of 3 games in their season series vs Atlanta, with DeMar DeRozan leading the way. Trae Young is back in action for the Hawks, but both teams are still missing several of their key players. The availability of Ayo Dosunmu and Andre Drummond is still undetermined. Their presence, or lack thereof, will play a huge role in determining which team has the upper hand. Dosunmu has played well against the Hawks, and Drummond can dominate their now smaller lineup with his offensive rebounding. Matt, Big Dave and Will break down all the angles of what should be a tightly contested game. Plus, could a big game from Nikola Vucevic be the Bulls’ best shot at victory? The guys also preview the other Play-In Tournament games in the East and West.SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/CHGOSportsWEBSITE: http://allCHGO.com/BUY MERCH: http://CHGOLocker.comFO

CHGO Bulls Podcast: Do the Bulls have a preferred Play-In matchup to advance to playoffs?
10/04/2024 Duration: 01h22sThe CHGO Bulls crew discuss the latest movement in the Eastern Conference standings as we near the conclusion of the NBA’s regular season. As it stands, the Bulls would play the loser between Philadelphia and Miami in the #7 vs #8 Play-In Tournament game, if they beat Atlanta first. The Bulls were eliminated by the Heat in last season’s second Play-In game. The Bulls had some success against both teams this season, splitting 2-2 with the Heat and taking 2 of 3 games from the 76ers. Also, should teams in the Bulls’ and Hawks’ position - trailing the 8th seed by a mile and under .500 - even be granted a chance to make the playoffs? Matt, Big Dave and Will also analyze Billy Donovan’s limited rotation options if Andre Drummond is unavailable after his ankle injury in their loss to the Knicks.SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/CHGOSportsWEBSITE: http://allCHGO.com/BUY MERCH: http://CHGOLocker.comFOLLOW ON SOCIAL:Twitter: @CHGO_Bulls / @Bulls_Peck / @BawlSports / @will_gottliebInstagram: @CHGO_SportsGET OUR FREE

CHGO Bulls Podcast: The Bulls three-point defense numbers are staggeringly bad
05/04/2024 Duration: 01h04minThe CHGO Bulls crew discuss one the Bulls’ biggest issues this season: the compounded problem of inconsistent three-point shooting while giving up way too many good looks beyond the arc to their opponents. The Bulls allowed a lot of open threes to their opponents last season too, but still managed to have a top-five defense. So what has changed, exactly? The numbers are alarming, and the trend is too strong to ignore. Matt, Big Dave and Will analyze the numbers, react to some of Billy Donovan’s latest thoughts on the problem, and talk about whether it’s possible to fix the problem moving forward.SUBSCRIBE: https://www.youtube.com/c/CHGOSportsWEBSITE: http://allCHGO.com/BUY MERCH: http://CHGOLocker.comFOLLOW ON SOCIAL:Twitter: @CHGO_Bulls / @Bulls_Peck / @BawlSports / @will_gottliebInstagram: @CHGO_SportsGET OUR FREE NEWSLETTER: http://www.allchgo.com/newsletterSupport us by supporting our sponsors! | Offers from our sponsors:Circa Sportsbook: Download the Circa Sports Illinois App at circasports.com/illinois-

04/04/2024 Duration: 01h03minThe CHGO Bulls crew react to Thursday’s news that the Bulls signed Javonte Green to a contract for the remainder of the 2023-24 season. After completing his 10-day contract, in which he played well in three games off the bench, Javonte earned a spot on the 15-man roster for the final six games of the regular season, and a potential playoff run. The Bulls waived Terry Taylor to free the roster spot for Green. Matt, Big Dave and Will discuss the implications of the move. Plus, the guys compare the remaining schedules of the Bulls and Hawks as they fight for the 9th seed and homecourt in the Play In Tournament.
