Chicago Bulls News: Are The Chicago Bulls Stuck In NBA Purgatory?
The Chicago Bulls are stuck in the NBA purgatory and that is the worst place to be in all of sports my name is Patrick seatman and welcome into the Bulls report I wanted to get a video uh to you guys just kind of explaining that the
Bulls are actually in maybe a worse spot than you may think following this report that we got from Darnell Mayberry uh yesterday saying the Bulls plan to stand Pat at the NBA trade deadline saying this with a week remaining before the NBA’s trade deadline few within or around the Chicago Bulls organization
Anticipate the franchise making a major move and I’ll tell you what guys it would be shambles here on the channel if next Thursday comes and goes and the Bulls made no moves no additions no subtractions to their roster I would be absolutely Furious but explain my
Thoughts further here in a second but if you guys want the Bulls to make a move at this NBA trade deadline all all you got to do send a message like today’s video free easy way to support the show and also send a message to the Bulls
Front office that maybe you are sick of kind of being stuck in this NBA Purgatory to like Today’s Show and I kind of want to start off with this point the Bulls F or the Bulls front office their favorite buzzword this off season we heard it over and over again
When they were making moves in free agency the draft they kept getting back to this continuity and I think it’s so funny now looking back on that because if you look at the Bulls and the way they’re playing this year it is the furthest thing from a team that has
Continuity up and down their roster it’s just funny looking back on it that they kept on saying oh the reason we’re going to take that next step is continuity I just I it just frustrates me now looking back on it but I want to ask this question to you know our tourists and
Honestly the Bulls whole front office what is the goal for this basketball team because as it stands right now you are a middle of the pack team and we’ll dive in some more stats here in a second but what is the goal do you want to be a
First round exit do you want to be a second round exit you know do you want to go compete for NBA championships and sometimes a goal heading into the season could be hey we’re not trying to win a ton of games we’re just trying to develop our own young players and then
Maybe get a higher draft pick and kind of build with you know what we already have but with the bull situation what is the goal heading into this year like I want to know when they were sitting down like what are we trying to do are we trying to compete for NBA championships
Are we trying to develop our young Talent are we trying to get a higher draft pick it just seems like they have no directions hence why they are NBA hence why they are in the NBA purgatory and right now they’re 23 and 26 sitting at the ninth seed in the Eastern
Conference and what bothers me so much is I promise you members of the Bulls front office are looking at the standings right now and being like oh wow the Bulls are in the playing tournament we don’t we don’t need to be sellers we’re right there trying to make
The playoffs listen guys your your max potential is you somehow get that a seed and you lose to the Celtics I was actually originally saying in five games is the best case scenario no the Celtics would beat you in four the Bucks would beat you in four the Knicks would beat
You in four that is your max potential with this basketball team and I do want to get to some of these stats uh offensively for the Bulls because last season they actually did finish top five in defensive rating following the Patrick Beverly um signing Midway through last season but the thing that
Bothers me so much another word that they kept saying or phrase that they kept saying during the offseason is oh hey we are going to shoot more threes we’re going to be a more analytically driven basketball team that has been farther from the truth look at this still in three-point attempts per game
The Bulls are 22nd points per game 26 field goal percentage 22nd three-point percentage 23rd assist per game 28th right there and I know I I hate saying like oh don’t be a box score Watcher like actually go watch the games but if you just look at these stats right now
What do you saying to yourself oh they’re 26 in points per game they’re 28th in assists per game and they’re 22nd in three-point attempt per game you’re sitting there saying Bulls play a lot of isolation basketball and that’s what they do it’s either they give it to
Demard Rosen they give it to V in the low block or they have LaVine run an ISO set and it just doesn’t work out consistent consistently that’s why you’re one of the worst offenses in the NBA gets me to this the biggest concern with the Bulls and the like when I’m
Evaluating what is truly wrong is do members of the Bulls front office when they’re discussing their plans heading into this trade deadline do they think they are a good basketball team like are they really sitting there and being like Oh if we just make one more move if we
Just get this extra you know one guy on the margin you know re could really go make a run in the playoffs that’s what’s so concerning is that for the last two trade deadlines you have stayed put at where you are and the what’s what’s the definition of insanity is doing the same
Thing over and over again expecting a different result that’s where the blls are right now I do want to get to this very interesting quote from Casey Johnson so somebody asked him during his mailbag session and if you guys don’t know KC does work for NBC Sports Chicago
Somebody asked him why do the Bulls keep on standing pad at the NBA trade deadline what changed from this year in comparison to last and this is what KC had to say he said how about I provide some statistics instead to support your stance the Bulls are 23 and 26 the same
Record as last season after 49 games in that time their offensive rating of 113 this season ranks 23rd and the rating of 112. 7 ranked 22nd after 49 games last season defensively the rating of 1147 this season is 14th well last season after 49 games it stood at
112.8 13th in the NBA the defense ultimately finished uh top five fueling their play in run like this is just comical to me like you are the same exact basketball team that you were last year and now reports coming out that you aren’t making any major moves and you’re
Just kind of cool with where you are you know what that is that is the biggest Fu to your fan base and the people that buy season tickets and the people that support you know your basketball team bu the jerseys and all it’s a joke like
That is comical that that is where the bll stand right now now somebody also asked KC Johnson well why do they keep making moves on the margins by adding veterans where does it really get them he says but yes adding Goran dragic and Drummond in 2022 and Tory Craig and
Javon Carter in 2023 hasn’t changed the core ceiling again I suppli the preseason thinking above the new offensive philosophy coupled with young players development would make an impact in the parody field Eastern Conference and the Bulls are firmly in the playin race listen I understand like guys like
Tory Craig Andre Drummond like Javon Carter they are great guys that you know help you make moves on the margins teams that are contending for championships make moves on the margin not a team that is sitting in the ninth seed or the 10th seed in their in their conference that’s what’s so frustrating
And confusing about this basketball team you make moves like you are the contenders if you’re the Celtics if you’re the bucks if you’re the Knicks yes go out and get a Tory Craig get a Javon Carter but if you’re the Bulls what’s the freaking Point that’s why
It’s so frustrating KC carried on to say this as well he says but yeah I’m as curious as anyone as to where they go next from here friendly that the 2024 NBA draft isn’t supposed to be very good and of course the Bulls have conveyed
Picks to Orlando in 2021 and 2023 and OA top 10 protected to the San Antonio Spurs in 2025 this is fully why you aren’t stuck in the NBA Purgatory right now is because you know let’s just say the Bulls front office and they’re saying well the draft’s not too good
Next season oh we’re just going to you know double down on this year because we don’t really think a draft pick is too valuable because it’s not that good I just think that’s a joke and I still think they’re holding on to the 2021 season like listen it was fun you know
For the first 35 games of that year BS were the number one seed in the Eastern Conference Lonzo ball was balling you know he was him and demard Rosen and LaVine on The Fast Break looked Oho very special but you got to give it up you
Got to admit you were wrong here you got to you know just rip that Band-Aid off I’ve used the comparison of when the Cardinals they drafted Josh Rosen uh the year before and the next year they took Kyler Murray same position because they knew they were wrong and they could
Upgrade at that spot that’s what the Bulls need to do and I’m completely frustrated with this front office I don’t know why I even had to scale this 1 through 10 I’m probably typing 100 Down Below in the comment section but you guys let me know how frustrated are
You with the bulls front office scale up for me 1 to 10 down in the comment section cuz I’m just fed up and I’m sure you guys can probably tell by this video but coming up next I’m going to give you guys my final thoughts on the NBA trade
Deadline just going over you know the five main trade candidates and obviously you know showing some love to actually the Young Guns specifically Kobe white who had a big time win uh game in the win against the Hornets last night but first I want to give a huge shout out to
Priz pick today’s sponsor of today’s edition of the Bulls report if you guys said the prize.com clns and use promo code clns you’re going to get a first deposit match all the way up to $100 what is prize picks it’s daily fantasy sports Made Easy how do you play you’re
Going to pick two or more players then you going to choose more or less onto projected stat types you guys can start seeing the cash rolling today Super Bowl’s coming up this is a lineup I’m rolling with they got a deal going on right now where you only need one
Passing yard for Patrick Mahomes so I’m taking the more on that I think peo is going to find the end zone so taking more on half a rushing and receiving uh TouchDown for him then mcaffrey he always F he always fills up the stat
Sheet so I’m going to go more on 33 and or 35 and a half receiving yards for him but whether you fade my picks or ride with my picks make sure you guys do do it at priz picks prize.com ands and use that promo code cln ask for
A first deposit match all the way up to $100 link for that in the comments and description of today’s show so I just want to kind of give my final thoughts on the big five that the Bulls could be training and just go over like what I
Think the trade value could be so with Zack oen honestly at this point I would give Zack oen up for a second round pick if you just have the com or the combination of his contract and overall play I’m I’m ready to move off him like I think the biggest addition the Bulls
Can make at the NBA trade deadline would just be getting him off your basketball team I just don’t like his effort don’t like him as a leader you know just kind of has a smug look every single time he’s on the sideline and you know I just
Think it’s fully fully time to move on give me a second for LaVine and I’m all in this guy would hurt the most though um Alex Caruso I absolutely love Alex cruso he is one of my favorite basketball players to watch in the NBA but he is your most valuable trade asset
I think you could actually get two second or two first round picks for them whether it’s a team like the Thunder or the Mavs who maybe you know aren’t desperate but maybe they need that needle mover to get them over the top I would hate the move off Caruso but also
For his sake I want him to go play for a way better B basketball team and just playing more meaningful games cuz obviously you won’t get that here in Chicago uh Nicole vuich I’d trade him for nothing like literally I would cut Nicole vuich today um he has been awful
He has just a terrible attitude anytime he’s on the basketball court I feel like he complains to refs more than anybody I’ve ever seen in an NBA game and also he is the worst defensive Center in the league I’ve said that multiple times he gets cooked in pick and rolls he can’t
Switch on the guards he can’t protect the rim and it’s not like he is this huge posi on the offensive side of the floor where it makes up for his lack of defensive ability I’d move off him for absolutely nothing number four for me demaro R Roan I think de Roan’s got a
Big chance to get traded if the Bulls decide to do so I just think a contender will be calling for him so I got D rozan at four listen I I I don’t know if he’ll get dealt but the Bulls got to decide either extend or you know obviously
Trade him number five for me is if the Bulls don’t make any moves I do still think Andre Drummond’s getting dealt um I think a team make Maybe even like Boston you know we talked about the Mavericks with him even the Lakers have reported uh showing interest in Andre
Drummond so I do think Drummond even if the Bulls are standing pack and running it back I do think Drummond will get dealt but just wanted to go over the last kind of five or go over five trade candidat for the Bulls and kind of give
My thoughts on uh you know why I you know what I would do because I think the Bulls sometimes just need to rip this freaking bandaid off and start over and another big reason why I would rip this bandaid off is because you would let the kid shine these three players obvious
See Patrick Williams out for the next two weeks but Kobe white last night absolutely balled out he was fantastic you guys go look at what IO dumo has done over the last two weeks we talked to him or we talked about him on a video early on this week he’s been absolutely
Hooping as well and the reason being is because guys like Zack oen are out and I couldn’t imagine you know what their output would be if you got rid of D rozan you got rid of Vu and more shots went to these three guys right here that’s how you develop your own players
And that’s how you really see what a guy like Patrick Williams can you know turn into instead of having him necessarily just be a role player catch and shoot guy you know that just stands in the corner will LaVine and D rozan go ISO ball and hero ball so that’s another big
Reason why you know obviously I would be a seller at the deadline but I do want to end the show doing this show Cobe white some freaking love man the dude’s been balling this year he should win most improved player um in the NBA and you know obviously it’s tough for him to
Be an All-Star with the you know the uh the loaded Eastern Conference in terms of guards but show him some love drop a like on today’s video and also guys make sure you guys are subscribed we are going to be going live here on the channel for the NBA trade deadline even
If the Bulls don’t make any moves we will still have you guys covered no matter what so lock Us in hit that sub button see yall Soon

Too many injuries setbacks now the office is confused about what they want to move forward, or
They're paralyzed by the fact they won't get equal value when they trade their players away, but noone ever does. The longer they wait the worse it gets.
Zach Lavine to the Golden State Warriors Mitchell Wiggins Jonathan Kuminga letâs do it
change the coach
The Bulls biggest issue is the front office. We have been a middle of the pack team since before the 2010âs. Only reason we had a couple good years in the past 15 years was because we got lucky in the D Rose draft
If the Bulls don't make major moves by the end of the summer I'm done!
Oh they have continuity being in NBA HELL!
Very frustrated, even small movements forward will be satisfying, it isn't just big failed contracts it is also failing to develop players.
