NBA mediocrity isn’t all bad.
After all, Christmases off. And then there’s the idea of avoiding the pressure of nationally televised games week after week or being scrutinized by all the talking heads on ESPN’s “NBA Today.”
No, not bad at all.
Just a lot of Adam and Stacey, Chuck and Big Bill Wennington, doing the best they can to push a stagnant product, while the seats at the United Center stay filled and the Jordan statue remains a must-have photo op.
Ah yes, and just like that, with the release of the 2025-26 NBA regular-season schedule on Thursday, Bulls basketball is returning in all its underwhelming glory.
