The Bulls just finished their four-game foray out on the West Coast on a three-game losing streak after their thrilling win over the Blazers started the trip, but it’s hard not to feel good how they competed throughout despite being shorthanded. While they couldn’t close any of the last three games, the fact that they were in them down to the wire — especially the Los Angeles games — was encouraging.
The Bulls wrapped up the trip with a Sunday matinee against the Clippers, and the road team didn’t have Otto Porter Jr. in this game because of lingering back issues.
