The Bulls’ sails catch wind at seemingly meaningless times. Their entire ship may be built poorly.
And Arturas Karnisovas, their executive vice president of basketball operations, might be steering them into the rocks, failing to understand what has worked for past NBA championship teams and what’s working for the current contenders in the first round of the playoffs this spring.
In fairness, Karnisovas and the front office have gotten some things right, such as changing the Bulls’ shot profile from last season, shifting from a mid-range-heavy offense to one that shoots more three-pointers, including from the corners.
