Crabby Warriors Vs. Bulls Take Contains Zero Evidence, Is Probably Right Anyway
The Golden State Warriors are one hell of a formidable basketball crew, insanely fun to watch, versatile, and with three games left on their schedule, they’re likely to tie or set the league record for wins in a season. The team they’re threatening is arguably the greatest the league ever saw: the B...

Mirotic, Mirotic, Put Your Hands All Over My Body

The Bulls Made A Kirk Hinrich Tribute Video And Set It To U2, Again
Kirk Hinrich is, if not quite a Bulls legend, than certainly a Bulls stalwart. He was drafted by Chicago back in 2003, and across two stints with the team racked up the third most games played in franchise history, only behind two guys named Michael and Scottie. ...

Drake Trash-Talks Bulls Player From Courtside Seat
Drake’s presence at Raptors game continues to bring us moments to laugh at. During a tense moment in last night’s game against the Bulls, Drake found himself standing right behind Justin Holiday, who was set to inbound the ball with the Bulls up 106-103 and under 30 seconds to play. So Drake got to ...

Timberwolves Fans Sue Team Over Bullshit Ticket Policy
It’s not just the Yankees that are trying to shake down their own fans via oppressive ticketing policies. The Minnesota Timberwolves are doing their part to speed us toward a future in which all games are played in front of crowds consisting only of rich people and paid-for empty seats....

Yankees Will No Longer Accept Print-At-Home Tickets, Thus Screwing Their Fans
Here’s some bullshit that the Yankees just added to their ticketing policies:...

Detroit Contractor Who Negotiated $285 Million In Public Money For The Red Wings Now Works With Red Wings Owner
Stadium financing is a scam no matter where it happens, but it’s particularly appalling when a bankrupt city like Detroit is conned into gifting $285 million to Red Wings owner Mike Ilitch so that he can build a new hockey arena. It gets worse: One of the men who negotiated with Ilitch on behalf of ...

Young American Stud Matt Miazga Set To Join Chelsea And Become New King Of English Soccer
Hell yeah, now this is more like it! While it was understandable if disappointing (and disappointing exactly because it was understandable) that Jordan Morris skipped out on the chance to take his talents to the Bundesliga and instead decided to start his pro career in MLS, we are not without hope t...

Here's Michael Jordan Gossip That We Desperately Want To Believe
This week, a day after former Chicago Bulls assistant coach Johnny Bach died at 91, we got an email. A friend of a friend had sent the tipster a summary of a 2011 dinner with Bach. It was filled with all sorts of fun anecdotes about Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen, Jerry Krause, and more characters o...

Bulls Need Every Single One Of Jimmy Butler's 53 Points To Beat The Sixers
Missing Pau Gasol and Derrick Rose, the Bulls spent most of Thursday night’s game against the 76ers looking like they’d never played basketball with each other before. They were down by as many as 24 points in the second quarter, and had 23 turnovers for the game. Here is Joakim Noah giving a visual...

Jimmy Butler Loses His Mind, Scores 40 Points In One Half
The Bulls went up to Toronto without Derrick Rose today in need of some momentum. Chicago appears to have fairly structural problems with their chemistry and offense, but they still have the talent to mount a decent challenge in the East. There’s a glut of kinda-sorta good teams in the East and, as ...

Bulls Beat Pacers On Fantastic Tipped Lob
Maybe this was the play design all along, or maybe Pau Gasol just saw an opening and lofted the ball up. Either way this play should’ve been dead in the water, with Jimmy Butler blanketed by Paul George and unable to grab the ball and dunk it home. Instead, Butler deftly tapped the ball into the hoo...

Joakim Noah Leaves Bulls Loss With Shoulder Sprain
Joakim Noah left the Bulls’ 105-102 loss to the Nets late in the third quarter, after an attempted steal resulted in his shoulder being yanked awkwardly....

Doug McDermott Is Probably Still Looking For Reggie Jackson
The Bulls and the Pistons played a Kevin Costner movie of a basketball game last night in Chicago. Detroit finally beat the Bulls in 4OT, 147-144, and Jimmy Butler even had a clear shot to take it to five, but he clanked it. Reggie Jackson had 13 in the final overtime, but he also sent Doug McDermot...

Mirza Teletovic Hits Absurd Game-Winner While Falling Away From The Basket
Mirza Teletovic helped the Suns top the Bulls 103-101 with this quite unlikely game-winner with just 0.3 seconds left. Check out the angle of Teletovic’s body right before he takes the shot: it’s not ideal form but it worked....

Jimmy Butler Wants His Fine Paid By "Mister Dukie" Mason Plumlee
Mason Plumlee put a shoulder into Jimmy Butler, and Butler stuck out his legs to trip Plumlee, but it was only Butler who got a technical. Now Butler wants Plumlee to pay his fine, and he knows exactly where to send the invoice....
