Can the Pistons’ Full-Power Charge Silence the Bulls’ Opening Night Roar?
The Bulls are a team that no one should pay attention to. As a Chicago resident and a lifelong fan, what Jerry Reinsdorf is doing to this team is despicable. If the man never lucked into Derrick Rose, I have to imagine this team wouldn’t have a playoff series win since Michael Jordan. In any case, the team is going to fight for a Play-In spot once again, and that will be enough to put butts in the seats, which seems to be all that the Bulls franchise cares about. This is going to be an ugly start for them. They have Josh Giddey, who did look great to end the season, starting at point, but will be without his backcourt mate, Coby White, who is injured. Isaac Okoro is not a scorer, and Matas Buzelis, in my opinion, didn’t get enough exposure in his rookie season. I do think the athletic forward could be a great piece for a team, but we will see. Nikola Vucevic is a stretch-5, but he doesn’t really do anything well enough to be truly elite. If Alpren Sengun is a Wish version of Nikola Jokic, then Vucevic is a Temu version of Sengun. There is a bit of depth on the team, and I’d expect them, like most teams, to be three-point dependent. If they are falling, the team will be competitive. If they aren’t, they are going to lose a lot of games by 20.Â
