Why the Lakers and Bulls Are Defying Expectations with Their Surprising Pace This Season

The Bulls are somehow back above .500. While that’s a good sign for now, do we really expect this team to be above .500 by the end of the year? 42 wins seems like it would be the ceiling for this team, especially considering most of the talk is that the team will likely trade anyone not named Josh Giddey and Matas Buzelis. Still, there have been some very impressive stretches from this club this year. They are currently on a four game winning streak, but trending toward a loss. They barely escaped with a win over the Timberwolves on the 22nd, and then on Saturday on Derrick Rose’s jersey retirement night, they won by three. That was a game I wish I would’ve played more because most teams tend to win in games like that. A quick note – Rose was electric while playing, but I don’t know that he deserves to have his jersey retired. He was the only hope the Bulls really had since Jordan retired, but he never won anything for the team. Most of his lore now is about what would’ve been instead of what he actually did. I’m happy for him, but not really sure that it was necessary. In any case, the Bulls won the game over the Celtics, hitting a three with about 0.2 seconds remaining and giving them the victory.
