Whenever you shoot 34% from the field, and 15% from behind the arc in the NBA, (as Chicago did in game 2 of the Eastern Conference Finals) you're not very likely to win. And for the Chicago Bulls, it's even harder to win when you're taking on a team that's more athletic and less reliant on jump shooting in the Miami Heat. Maybe the Bulls have gotten their "bad shooting game" … [Read more...] about Chicago Bulls Need More Scoring from Wings, Higher Shooting Percentage

Kyle Korver Lights Up Bobcats; Stephen Jackson Still Trashes his Game
Last season the Chicago Bulls finished dead last in the NBA in three point field goal percentage. In the summer they went out and got Kyle Korver from Utah. All he did was lead the league in three point shooting percentage. Actually he broke the NBA season record for three point percentage, with a .536 eclipsing that of former Bull Steve Kerr and his .524 in … [Read more...] about Kyle Korver Lights Up Bobcats; Stephen Jackson Still Trashes his Game
What’s up with the Bulls Shooting Guard Options?
I never thought the Chicago Bulls would miss Kirk Hinrich this much. But four games into the NBA season, (that means we're 1/20th of the way through the season already) you can see how he mattered more than we thought he did last summer. Keith Bogans, the second oldest guy on the Bulls behind Kurt Thomas, is the starter at the shooting guard position. Two new wings imported … [Read more...] about What’s up with the Bulls Shooting Guard Options?
Maybe the Bulls Will Start Making some 3s Now?

Problem … [Read more...] about Maybe the Bulls Will Start Making some 3s Now?
Is Derrick Rose the Next Deron Williams?
With the signing of three former members of the Utah Jazz, the Chicago Bulls earned the nickname "Utah Midwest" this summer. Bulls fans hope they don't become "Utah Jazz East," as in the Jazz of the Eastern Conference postseason because Utah's recent playoff experience is not worth emulating. You've heard the expression "NBA Hell?" Well, that's exactly where Utah is- a place … [Read more...] about Is Derrick Rose the Next Deron Williams?
Chicago Bulls add Kyle Korver, Omer Asik to the Roster
“We are pleased to welcome Kyle to the Bulls. He will be a great addition to our team and he will provide another dimension to our offense,” said Chicago Bulls General Manager Gar Forman today. Korver (6-7, 212), a seven-year veteran of the NBA, spent the last two-plus seasons with the Utah Jazz.

Chicago Bulls sign Kyle Korver, Offer Sheet to J.J. Redick
On the same exact day (well night actually) that the Chicago Bulls formally introduced Carlos Boozer to the Chicago community, (and a day after officially losing out on the Lebron sweepstakes) the front office made a couple more moves. And they were the perfect supplemental moves towards addressing their team needs. Boozer filled their glaring need for a back-to-the-basket … [Read more...] about Chicago Bulls sign Kyle Korver, Offer Sheet to J.J. Redick
