Lethargic.
Pathetic.
Embarrassing.
Pick an adjective with a negative connotation to try and describe the 124-104 season-opening loss to Atlanta on Wednesday night. And if that adjective had a say, it likely wouldn’t even want to be associated with the Bulls after that performance.
There was Trae Young running down his own rebound in the second quarter with almost no resistance from the home team, and then nailing a corner three. There was one possession in the third in which Young went the length of the floor, while three Bulls never even bothered making it across half-court.
