Do the Chicago Bulls have more pressure than any team in the NBA?
When the Chicago Bulls ended their rebuild two years ago, they added some solid win-now pieces. They traded for Nikola Vucevic at the 2021 deadline, then followed that up by signing DeMar DeRozan, Lonzo Ball, and Alex Caruso in free agency. And while the choices looked promising, things quickly fell apart.
After getting off to a hot start in 2021, an injury to Ball derailed their plans. The point guard has yet to get back on the court, and in the two years Chicago has had their current core, they have won just a single playoff game. Needless to say, the Bulls haven’t lived up to their own expectations.
Now, heading into next season. Chicago may have more pressure to perform than any other team in the league. Chicago Bulls Central on YouTube recently discussed this topic.
What would be an ideal ending to next season for the Bulls?
