What happened to Joakim Noah’s scoring this year? This game alone accounts for nearly 20 percent of his output! Did he finally inherit his father’s love of tennis, playing basketball only to pay the bills? Is he secretly lusting after some fair maiden, a maiden unattainable, causing his heart to ache and his play to…

Bobby Portis 20 Points Full Highlights (12/19/2015)
It shouldn’t take the entire rest of the Bulls being tired from a quadruple-overtime game for Bobby Portis to receive playing time. I mean, you’d think at some point during four extra periods of basketball that you could find some time for him, especially when Pau Gasol could barely make it down the court without…
Read MoreDoug McDermott 17 Points Full Highlights (12/16/2015)
After watching a bunch of young talents have okay games tonight, I’m thinking something needs to be done about the way the NBA is set up. I am not content with Doug McDermott coming off the bench and not getting to shoot the whole time he is in the game. Same with a whole bunch…
Read MoreNikola Mirotic 17 Points Full Highlights (12/14/2015)
Is there something wrong with Nikola Mirotic this year? Or is there something wrong with Fred Hoiberg? Because it has to be one of the two. One of the two has to be to blame for Nikola’s semi-struggles this year. Blame must be allocated. To one or both of them. It’s easy to say Fred…
Read MoreDoug McDermott 13 Points Full Highlights (12/5/2015)
We need to find some way to get Fred Hoiberg to give Doug McDermott more minutes. Micky Buckets has earned the minutes, and the minutes are not being given. This is out of his hands now. He has done everything he can. We must intervene. Would telling Hoiberg that he doesn’t need to pretend to…
Read MoreNikola Mirotic 25 Points Full Highlights (11/27/2015)
I’m pretty sure Stacey King just spent the entire broadcast talking about Nikola Mirotic “punishing” C.J. Miles. Like, the whole damn thing, whenever Nikola was in the game. I get that the Bulls should have maybe exploited the matchup advantage more heavily, but was it as simple as just passing the ball to Nikola every…

I relax in my office, content for a moment to simply watch the snow fall outside my window and to pet my cat, Japurri Purrker. Nothing can disturb the deep serenity of the winter morning. Nothing but… My phone rings. Japurri, startled by the noise, hops off my lap and trots to his kitty condo….
Read MoreDoug McDermott 18 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (11/9/2015)
Am I the only one who thinks that, after he retires, Doug McDermott should open up a fast-casual burger joint called McBuckets? Offering customers high-quality burgers with fancy toppings, made to order, in a bucket with fresh-cut fries thrown in alongside. Instead of normal cups filled with soda, provide mini-buckets for beverage consumption. This is…
Read MoreBobby Portis 10 Points Full Highlights (11/3/2015)
That was quick! I didn’t think we’d get to see any Bobby Portis at least until midway through the season. The Thibs era has truly come to an end, I guess. Granted, the minutes he received tonight were the garbagiest of garbage time, but we can’t complain. Real minutes against real NBA players are always…
Read MoreDoug McDermott Career High 17 Points/5 Threes Full Highlights (11/3/2015)
Good news for Bulls fans: Doug McDermott is officially out-Korvering Kyle Korver. Bad news for Bulls fans: Derrick Rose is officially garbage. We’ll leave that second point for later. Does it even matter if your MVP-winner sucks when you’ve got Jimmy Butler and freshly-minted beast Dougie McBuckets? No. All that hype I had for Doug…
