Warning: What you’re about to read is not an overreaction.
The Chicago Bulls must blow it up. And sure, there isn’t much left to blow up, but whatever remains needs to be demolished. The Bulls are 9–12 and have dropped five straight. The worst part? Their last five opponents are a combined 31–78. Yes, it’s that bad.
Chicago’s path forward: a full rebuild
Sure, 9–12 isn’t a disaster—not when one of your best players has only played five games. But this is different. The Bulls haven’t been terrible these last few years, but they haven’t been particularly good either.
