When the Chicago Bulls hit the halfway mark of the 2019-20 regular season, they sat more than four games out of a playoff spot in the Eastern Conference. The Bulls are starting to fall further and further behind the Orlando Magic and Brooklyn Nets for the eight seed in the East at the halfway mark.
What makes matters worse is that the Nets got superstar point guard Kyrie Irving back from injury at the perfect time for them to make a back half playoff push this season. Kyrie missed more than two-dozen games with that lingering shoulder injury, but he’s hoping to get the Nets rolling down the stretch.
