These guys play good team basketball together. Better than just signing a bunch of superstars to max contracts and then they all just hog the ball to stat chase and cause drama on the bench. The bulls are sick, I dig these guys a lot. I’m not from Chicago but the bulls highlights are the only ones I follow this year honestly haha
Very un stingy team!!Just looking to be good as a team!!Even the help defense looks good! Dont have to play shut down D if you have guys that pick up for each other!! For me thats been very impressive!
What I love about this Bulls team is the teamwork and comradery. Zach used to be the star of the team always scoring the most points. Now Derozan has taken up that mantle but Zach doesnt mind. Zach has turned into such an all-round and great team leader imo.
Also Caruso willing to run the second unit despite being a solid player. Caruso could absolutely be a starter for any small market team. Dude never complains ever.
it also helps that both lonzo and caruso are really hard to beat 1v1, this season i have yet to see somebody blowing by Zo on their own without the help of a screen and even then Zo is able to contest the shot most of the time
@@riroballs ye but even in New Orleans he was a good defender but it didnt look like he bothered fighting through them becasue he kind of knew that the opponents would still score because most of the other pels players were scrubs defensively and it really didnt help his energy levels that he was always one the opposing teams biggest threat and even then he always had to get screened just so that they can pass him, tho i dont know if that was what van gundy told them to do or if lonzo just didnt want to fight through the screens. heck he even gave zach, doncic, dame and others a really hard time when he was guarding them but they´d get hot just as soon as lonzo was either on the bench or had other players guarding them
@@iamalphaspoken106 well JT is a great player so him being able to beat Zo is not suprising but Zo still made life hard for him depsite getting beat a couple of times
This defense reminds me almost of 90's bull defence that turned into offense. No wasting steal by going for 3 pointers and just getting those high percentage layups and dunks.
They completely disregarded that we were ranked 12th statistically defensively and ridded and is coached by a fella that always has quality defensive teams...
I just worried about their inside defense, but zo, caruso, derozan and lavine switch answer that But I think it would be great if they had a good offense great defense center like bam adebayo
Everyone on this team is an all-star caliber player but with 0 of the big name downsides(ego, ballhog, "legacy", unrealistic expectations, huge contracts, etc). I feel like this team is "basketball". No drama. No frills. Just good old basketball and I love it.
as soon as i saw their offseason moves, i was like shit they are serious. with this team, and Billy Donovan's coaching they will be a deep playoff team. BET!
I am so used to the Bulls have 7 or 8 good players, and then a serious drop off. The Bulls would have 3 or 4 players that should not even be in the NBA. Like Arcidiacano, or Christiano Felicio, for example. NOW... very different story. It seems every single player would play for other teams, if not here. Caruso, and Coby would start for many teams. A key advantage the Bulls have, IMO, is that the Bulls don't give opponents any chance to rest. Our subs often out-perform our starters. So, there is always pressure. If you notice the games, you will see that. Game being tight, and then they relax, Bulls score quick ten points, and that's it. They can't catch up.
Wonder how this would work in the long run, especially in the playoffs against teams like heat and Philly who have versatile bigs leading the teams. Gonna be interesting
Bulls fans need to be patient this roster is solid but not deep and losing P Will hurts. Losses are coming now that the schedule is getting tighter but definitely a solid team with playoff level expectations
I'm working in Normal IL, Ws fan, but Bulls are on TV more here (duh). Bulls are looking good, I think Lonzo has become what the Lakers hoped amd is a really good fit 👌 fun team to watch glad I came here THIS season 😀 gotta shout out # 1 defense in league is GSW with Looney at the 5.
AK and the Bulls don't get much credit for the depth of the team. Sure, ZL, Vooch, DD, and Ball are the top guys. BUT...the Bulls would have lost games without Ayo, Green, Alize, and Caruso contributing. When ten guys play in a game's rotation, there are quality players left sitting. Like DJJ and Tony Bradley. When Coby comes back, who sits? AK has stacked this team. Donovan's biggest problem, IMO, is who does he play, and who does he bench?? I don't think that is an easy answer.
This is so accurate actually! Bulls are stacked with tough pieces who can really compete. Not the kind of team you wanna face in the first round for sure
I think when Coby returns he'll fit right in. No one will have to sit but minutes could get shaved down some for certain players. Which could be a good thing. I know Caruso would be fine with it as he averaged 18min a game and never complained on the Lakers. With the Bulls he's been getting 25+ mins a game. But he and Coby can also share the floor. The team is definitely rich in talented guards. As long as they all play to win and support each other I think the rotation mins should work out.
@@jdh9676 Only 5 players on the court at a time. Only 48 minutes to a game. If someone plays - someone else is sitting. That is the reality of the game. Oddly, our guards are so good, that it will likely be a forward that sits. Already, we see Lonzo, Caruso, and Zach playing together, Right?? They are 3 guards. How about a lineup of Lonzo, Zach, Caruso, Coby, and DD playing Center??? DD is a basketball God, and can do anything.
Bradley and DJJ have showed their value. We get no credit, but we are very deep. Coby will be a big boost when he gets back. Bench needs his scoring, and he would be an easy fill-in to start when need be, and a real threat.
Not saying that they're as good, but this 1-2-3 combo of Lavine-De Rozan-Lonzo reminds me of the Bulls original 1-2-3 combo that won 3 consecutive titles, Jordan-Pippen-Harper. By 1-2-3, I mean the actual playing positions.
Bulls are great but now without Patrick Williams we don't really have a power forward and we only have 2 centers and only one power forward that was pat but he wasn't really helping in the offense end of the court devonte green did better but I'm glad bulls are good again
@@riroballs yeah you seen last game our other big guy he came off bench and actually did good defending Rudy 👀 we might can put Nikola Vucevic on the poweforward spot and put Tony Bradly on the center then we would be like best starting 5 in my opinion
I love Lonzo, but he needs to make getting to the paint more of a priority. Sure, they can bring in Caruso when they want more paint threat, but I want Lonzo to be competent in it as well if he's going to start over him.
Can't fathom why the Lakers let Caruso go for Rondo. Rondo helped two years ago but he's two years older and not a great shooter. This is the win now with Lebron thinking but Caruso is showing what he truly can do. Nice mix of young and experienced guys on the Bulls. DD can still drop 30+ points on any given night and Zack's in his prime. They are playing great D and so they are easily in the mix for the payoffs.
This ain't my 90s bulls... But this is as close as your going to get. Always said since day 1 that ball could play. Hes refined his talent Levene was never going to carry them alone.
They scare the NBA because they have the NBAs best defensive duo in Lanzo and Caruso, and they have the best Offensive duo in Derozen and Lavine. Bulls are the only team that has TWO players in the top 5 scoring(PPG) Derozen at #4 and Lavine at #5, at one point they were #3 and #4. Then you got Caruso #1 in the league in steals, and Caruso and Lanzo absolutely shut down every all-star, who ever one has trouble guarding, the other can take over. Its hilarious watching All-stars get so pissed and frustrated when Lazno and Caruso D them up.
Great video... The Chicago Bulls are the team that LA WANTS to be. They are the perfect fitted team at all positions. In my opinion they gell together better than the Lakers because they were so geniusly picked to. Look at how Chicago added to Zach Lavines talent PERFECTLY, to make sure he has HELP and not just some superstar to learn to work with. Players that were put together "under the radar" from the media as these players arent super hyped names right now. Demar Derozen has been looked at as "not enough" by the media, and Caruso a bench peice. Ball has been deemded the same way. Watch the media NOW jump on the badwoagon lol
They already are starting to jump on the ban wagon!Its going to important for the top guys to stay healthy!Alot change if someones hurt,because one less star to cover on D!
Everyone was hating on DeRozan saying he's a massive defensive liability. Who would have known that DeRozan would actually be a pretty solid all around player within a pretty defensive focused team!? (Cue every 2014-2018 REGULAR SEASON Raptors game ever) ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
People do not know how good a HC Billy Donovan really is!! This squad is like the 1989 Illinois Flyin Illini NBA version. Long, skilled, Defense leads to offense. They're going to be a PROBLEM to the whole league. Brooklyn better stop the BS and put Kyrie on the court.
I'm not buying it for only 7 games and they face Pistons back2back, Pelicans, and the struggling Boston. ( 4 bonus wins in the NBA). We'll see if they can keep up with their record against good teams. I see their sched the next 9 games would be against Sixers, Nets, Warriors,, Portland Clippers, Lakers, Denver, Knicks. After 40 games half of the season we can see who are the legit teams.
lol guys like you who keep bringing up the loss to Golden State are obviously casuals. The Bulls didn't have Vuc in that game, the warriors also have the best record in the league so it's not that shocking. The Bulls still beat Brooklyn Utah and Boston lol
Bulls are limiting oponents to 99.5 points per 100 possessions (thanks to two games against the detroit pistons ;) ) Also, I think they played 1 team that is above average in regards to offense... so pulling that out as proof of great defense.... meeeh Using the number of deflections per game... honoustly, it's the first time i've seen someone use that stat... i didn't know it existed.... What I do know, is that only Caruso is currently, this season, above the average of the NBA as a defender. The rest is below... I'm not saying they are a fluke...i'm not saying they are the real deal... too soon to tell imo. What I do know, is pretending they are a super good defensive team is bullsh... They had a good game against the Jazz... They were lucky Brown and Tatum chocked their entire team out and played pistons twice... I don't think they'll be at the top of the standings tbh at the end of the season. Playoffs, yes, but i don't see them winning a playoff series against Bucks, Nets, Heat, Hawks and honoustly maybe not even knicks or celtics... but all that, is too early to tell. What I find disturbing, for a team with all this offensive prowers, they have had some really low scoring games... like half of them already... Curious too see more about this team though....
Its not even a fraction of the whole season but this team has "almost" gelled knowing only lavine and vooch was the only players who are comfortable playing each other (dont include Pat will and coby since they were not playing much at this point) the rest were almost newly acquired during off season. There are sloppy games and their loss from knicks was almost a win for them if vooch didn't miss those 3 free throws.
Lol they’ve beat most of their opponents with defense including the Nets Jazz Clippers Celtics. The Warriors game was one loss and casuals making it seem like it defines the whole Bulls system. And btw the Bulls didnt have their starting 4 and 5 in that Warriors game just so you know
I don’t think you gotta scare anybody in your first year with a roster overhaul my guy. They’re just getting started with chemistry building and they’re fun as hell to watch.
@@Vickypabz I agree the Bulls are a 5/6 seed and Philly will be in that mix as well. Bulls have had mostly an easy schedule so far it gets rough this month

they gonna have trouble against big teams. 76ers just wooped them
Yeah man they made it close at the end though. But definitely had trouble guarding Embiid plus Seth Curry made his shots as well
@@riroballs and without 3 starters...
2 words Golden State.
lol guys like you who keep bringing up the loss to Golden State are obviously casuals. The Bulls didn't have Vuc in that game, the warriors also have the best record in the league so it's not that shocking. The Bulls still beat Brooklyn Utah and Boston lol
I like the Bulls, but their still too young and inexperienced. Ain't no beating the Warrior's in 7 games in San Francisco!!
Yeah that’s true
Bulls are limiting oponents to 99.5 points per 100 possessions (thanks to two games against the detroit pistons ;) ) Also, I think they played 1 team that is above average in regards to offense... so pulling that out as proof of great defense.... meeeh
Using the number of deflections per game... honoustly, it's the first time i've seen someone use that stat... i didn't know it existed.... What I do know, is that only Caruso is currently, this season, above the average of the NBA as a defender. The rest is below...
I'm not saying they are a fluke...i'm not saying they are the real deal... too soon to tell imo. What I do know, is pretending they are a super good defensive team is bullsh... They had a good game against the Jazz... They were lucky Brown and Tatum chocked their entire team out and played pistons twice... I don't think they'll be at the top of the standings tbh at the end of the season. Playoffs, yes, but i don't see them winning a playoff series against Bucks, Nets, Heat, Hawks and honoustly maybe not even knicks or celtics... but all that, is too early to tell.
What I find disturbing, for a team with all this offensive prowers, they have had some really low scoring games... like half of them already... Curious too see more about this team though....
Its not even a fraction of the whole season but this team has "almost" gelled knowing only lavine and vooch was the only players who are comfortable playing each other (dont include Pat will and coby since they were not playing much at this point) the rest were almost newly acquired during off season. There are sloppy games and their loss from knicks was almost a win for them if vooch didn't miss those 3 free throws.
they actually shut down a Nets team with KD and Harden plus a healthy Celtics team so idk about that
They ain't scaring the sixers! We whooped their a$$ twice in one week..
DeMar and Kyle left us. 😫☹️🇨🇦
Toronto’s gonna be fine!
Yeah they sure suffocated golden states offense, didn’t they? 🤨🙄
Lol they’ve beat most of their opponents with defense including the Nets Jazz Clippers Celtics. The Warriors game was one loss and casuals making it seem like it defines the whole Bulls system. And btw the Bulls didnt have their starting 4 and 5 in that Warriors game just so you know
Didn't seem to scare the 76'ers.
Didn’t scare the sixers last night 🤔
chicago need zion now
Defense defense defense
The bulls don't scare anybody. Come playoff time nobody will be scared and zack lavine will let chi know he's splitting it wasn't enough.
I don’t think you gotta scare anybody in your first year with a roster overhaul my guy. They’re just getting started with chemistry building and they’re fun as hell to watch.
Top 6 seed at the end of regular season
I think they’ll go much higher 😁
@@riroballs 1. Brooklyn
2. Miami
3. Milwaukee
4. Atlanta
5. New York
6. Chicago
7. Charlotte
8. Indiana
Quite realistic but idk
@@Vickypabz I agree the Bulls are a 5/6 seed and Philly will be in that mix as well. Bulls have had mostly an easy schedule so far it gets rough this month
@@I.am_Groot true. Bulls beat the Jazz without Conley
Wait so you mean to tell me they got a better D then Miami. Come on!!!!!
No but Chicago will outscore and outrun the Heat all day. Cmon the Heat just scored 78 points against the Celtics
@@chuckcheesy6325 come on we 6 and 1 we allowed to lose that game. Blame it on the uniforms.
