Cam Smith and K.C. Johnson open the episode by reflecting on an emotional night at the United Center as the Derrick Rose jersey retirement takes center stage. They break down what the moment meant for Rose, the franchise, and the city, before diving into the on-court action that followed as the Chicago Bulls edged the Boston Celtics on Kevin Huerter's game-winning shot. From there, the guys recap a tough loss to the Los Angeles Lakers, sparked by a big first half from LeBron James and a double-double from Luka Dončić. They also highlight Coby White who is playing some of his best basketball of the season, Josh Giddey finding his rhythm since returning from injury, and Matas Buzelis earning another Rising Stars nod while opting out of the dunk contest. The episode wraps with a look ahead to a packed stretch of games, including multiple matchups with the Miami Heat and a visit from the Indiana Pacers, plus a debate on whether the Bulls should keep leaning into their effective double-big lineup.

The Chicago Bulls just hit a turning point — and it came fast
The Chicago Bulls enter one of the most pivotal stretches in franchise history, and tonight we're breaking down every angle. With seven players on expiring contracts, a seven-game losing streak, a collapsing defense, and Billy Donovan publicly challenging his locker room, the Bulls face tough decisions that will shape the next five years of this franchise.Haize dives deep into:
The Chicago Bulls have officially cooled off — and the bench that once carried this team has slid into the danger zone. After a 5-0 start, Chicago now sits at 9-10, losing 7 of their last 10 games and watching both the defense and offense take a major step backward.
The Chicago Bulls find themselves with some major rotation questions — and some huge bright spots — as they head into tonight's matchup with the Portland Trail Blazers. Billy Donovan has praised this team's adaptability, but the way certain pieces are playing is forcing tough decisions as the season moves on.Isaac Okoro has been a mixed bag: strong defense, some solid shooting nights, but he's struggled guarding bigger wings. With Ayo thriving off the bench, it raises the real question: Will Donovan eventually need to move Patrick Williams or Kevin Huerter into the starting lineup once Coby White returns to full minutes?Meanwhile… Nikola Vucevic continues to be a concern. Vooch isn't getting benched, but the Bulls HAVE to consider reducing his minutes on nights where he's hurting more than helping. The inconsistency is becoming too big to ignore.On the flip side — the Bulls bench is ELITE. Ayo Dosunmu and Jalen Smith are becoming one of the best bench duos in the NBA, combining for 25 points per game while shooting: • 55% FG • 46% from 3 • 90% FT • Jalen Smith at 40% from 3Chicago's second unit ranks:
Chicago Bulls vs. Portland Trailblazers NBA Pick Prediction by Tony T. Collins is out with Jones questionable for Chicago. Smith is probable. Henderson, Thybulle and Wesley are out for Portland with Holiday questionable. Grant is probable. Bulls at Trailblazers 10PM ET—Chicago improved to 7-6 with their 130-127 road win at Denver. The Bulls shot 47% with 36% from three. Josh Giddey produced 21 points with 14 rebounds. Kevin Huerter contributed 20 points and two rebounds. Chicago allowed 47% shooting with 39% from three. Portland is on a back-to-back after hosting Phoenix on Tuesday and losing 127-110.
The Chicago Bulls snap their brutal five-game losing streak with a thrilling 130-127 victory over the championship-contending Denver Nuggets in Denver. This wasn't about the starters—it was a complete bench takeover that saved Chicago's season momentum. Haize breaks down how the Bulls' second unit exploded for 66 points with a staggering +24 plus-minus, led by Javon Carter's 15 points, Jalen Smith's 16 points and 8 rebounds, and Ayo Dosunmu's efficient 21-point performance. Josh Giddey contributed 21 points and 14 rebounds while Kevin Huerter added 20, but the real story was the bench mob's relentless energy on a back-to-back in high elevation. Despite Nikola Vucevic's concerning on-off numbers and a shaky fourth quarter where Chicago went 1-for-13 from three, the Bulls showed championship-level grit against a legitimate contender.Tune in for an honest breakdown of what this quality win means as Chicago enters an easier schedule stretch, plus analysis of lineup decisions and trade possibilities.Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:@BullsCentralPodPhone: (773) 270-2799Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/chicago-bulls-central/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Chicago Bulls vs. Utah Jazz NBA Pick Prediction by Tony T. Bulls at Jazz Injuries Collins is out for Chicago with Giddey, Jones and White are questionable. Hendricks and Niang are out for Utah with Anderson questionable. Recent Box Score Key Stats Bulls at Jazz 8PM ET—Chicago drops to 6-5 following their 124-113 road defeat to Detroit. The Bulls shot 48% with 36% from three and 21 turnovers. Matas Buzelis scored 21 points with fourteen rebounds. Kevin Huerter chipped in with 20 points with two assists. Chicago allowed 56% shooting with 43% from three. Utah fell to 4-8 after their 132-122 home defeat to Atlanta. The Jazz hit 49% with 43% from three and 24 turnovers. Lauri Markkanen posted 40 points with seven rebounds. Ace Bailey produced 21 points and five boards. Utah allowed 51% shooting with 51% from three.
The Chicago Bulls just hit their lowest point of the season — a 124–113 loss to a depleted Detroit Pistons team missing Cade Cunningham, Jaden Ivey, Jalen Duren, Tobias Harris, and Isaiah Stewart. Despite the short-handed Pistons, Detroit outworked and outplayed the Bulls in every way.Head coach Billy Donovan didn't hold back postgame: “We're not talented enough not to play desperate.” And he's right. Chicago has dropped four straight, and the lack of urgency, effort, and focus has been glaring. Meanwhile, Nikola Vucevic is mired in a brutal stretch — averaging just 10.5 points and 6.5 rebounds on 37.5% shooting over his last four games.But it's not all bad. Kevin Huerter has quietly evolved into one of the Bulls' most reliable and versatile offensive weapons. His increased usage, attacking mentality, and ability to create off the dribble have made him a crucial piece in Donovan's offense.Haize breaks down why this loss could be the wake-up call the Bulls needed — and what has to change for the team to reclaim its early-season identity.
The Chicago Bulls drop their third straight game, falling 121-117 to the San Antonio Spurs despite holding a 10-point lead late in the third quarter. Without Josh Giddey and Coby White, the Bulls competed hard but collapsed in the fourth quarter, getting outscored 32-19 as Victor Wembanyama torched them for 38 points down the stretch.Haize breaks down critical coaching decisions by Billy Donovan, particularly keeping Nikola Vučević on the floor despite defensive struggles while Jalen Smith dominated on both ends. Tre Jones and Kevin Huerter stepped up with 20+ point performances, and Matas Buzelis bounced back with 15 points. The analysis covers the Bulls' concerning inability to score in crunch time, defensive breakdowns against Wembanyama and Luke kornet, and what needs to change as they prepare for Detroit.Tune in for an honest assessment of where this young Bulls team stands at 6-4, including optimism about their competitiveness once fully healthy.Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:@BullsCentralPodPhone: (773) 270-2799Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/chicago-bulls-central/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
The Chicago Bulls squandered a 19-point lead in a crushing 128-122 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, exposing critical execution flaws and questionable coaching decisions. Host Haize breaks down Billy Donovan's puzzling choice to bench red-hot Jalen Smith (18 points, 11 rebounds, plus-17) in favor of struggling Nikola Vucevic during crunch time, despite Smith's perfect 6-for-6 shooting performance. The Bulls' bench exploded for 58 points—led by Jaylen Johnson's flawless outing and strong contributions from Patrick Williams, Kevin Huerter, and Ayo Dosunmu—yet late-game mismanagement and Josh Giddey's ankle injury derailed Chicago's momentum. Matas Buzelis struggled significantly, while the absence of Coby White became glaringly apparent in critical fourth-quarter possessions. With the Bulls now 6-3 and facing their first losing streak of the season, this analysis reveals what went wrong and what must change as they prepare for upcoming matchups against San Antonio, Detroit, and Utah. Tune in for an unfiltered breakdown of this winnable game that slipped away.Podcast Links: https://linktr.ee/BullsCentralPodGet at us:Email: BullsCentralPod@gmail.comTwitter:@BullsCentralPodPhone: (773) 270-2799Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/chicago-bulls-central/exclusive-contentAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
Big Red Bus Podcast Episode Title: AKME Redemption: The Rise of the Red Leviathan Hosts: See Red Fred & The Podfather, Doug Thonus Summary:See Red Fred and the Podfather Doug Thonus break down one of the most thrilling weeks in recent Bulls history — a miraculous comeback win that cements the Bulls as the #1 seed in the Eastern Conference. The guys argue that we're witnessing the greatest front office turnaround in Chicago sports history, thanks to four franchise-changing moves that have completely reshaped the team's identity. Topics Covered: The Buzelis Draft Pick (June 2024, #11 Overall)Fred and Doug revisit the bold selection of Matas Buzelis — calling it an A+ pick that set the tone for everything that followed. The LaVine TradeThe front office struck gold by trading Zach LaVine for Tre Jones, Kevin Huerter, and John Collins — plus their pick back. Fred praises each as rock-solid contributors, emphasizing that the Bulls gained three quality pieces and financial flexibility. The Okoro TradeDubbed “the most underrated great move,” Isaac Okoro's addition transformed the Bulls' defense. Shooting 50-40-80 over his last five games, Okoro locked down Tyrese Maxey in crunch time — solidifying himself as the team's best defender and a critical late-game stopper. Fred contrasts his production with Lonzo Ball's multi-year absence and inefficiency, calling out the overreaction from fans who doubted the deal. The Giddey Trade and ExtensionA true win-win. Alex Caruso helped OKC capture a championship, while Josh Giddey — a misfit in OKC — has flourished in Chicago. At just 23 years old, Giddey is emerging as a bona fide All-Star and, according to Fred, even belongs in the early MVP conversation. Closing Thoughts:The Big Red Bus celebrates a Bulls team reborn — deeper, smarter, tougher, and finally built to contend. From a fanbase in despair to the top of the East, AKME Redemption is real, and the ride has only just begun. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Chicago Bulls stormed back from 24 down to stun the 76ers 113–111 in a signature win. Josh Giddey authored another triple-double masterclass and Nikola Vučević nailed the go-ahead dagger as Chicago outworked Philly in every hustle category and held them to 16 points in the 4th. From clamping Tyrese Maxey late, to big bench minutes from Kevin Huerter and Jalen Smith, this was about fight, poise, and team basketball.We break down:How Chicago flipped the game with defense and reboundingGiddey's star turn and why his fit elevates everyoneVooch's late-game answers vs. EmbiidWhy this depth/ball-movement identity travelsWhat it means when Coby White and Ayo Dosunmu are backIf you doubted this team, put some respect on their name.
The Chicago Bulls keep proving the doubters wrong — and their dominant win over the New York Knicks was the latest example.In this episode of Chicago Bulls Central, Haize breaks down 4 key stats that show exactly why the Bulls' hot start is no fluke:
The Toronto Blue Jays are on the brink of winning their first World Series title since 1993, while denying the Dodgers back to back championships. Will L.A. force a game 7? Plus, the Bills and Chiefs meet again. Buffalo has controlled this rivalry in the regular season. Can they do it again while also turning it into postseason success against Patrick Mahomes and company? Kevin Huerter goes on a mini revenge tour, playing well against his former teams, the Hawks and Kings. And, our Week 9 NFL picks.
The Chicago Bulls have started the season 2-0 for the first time in four years, and Bulls Nation… it feels GOOD. In this episode of The Horns Over Hoops Podcast, Sal-Bass, Scott Berman, and Dan Gracie break down exactly why this Bulls team looks different — and why the energy around Chicago basketball feels alive again. We discuss how this Bulls team has embraced tough defense, high effort possessions, and smarter shot selection, instead of the stagnant isolation basketball that killed us in previous seasons. The emergence of Tre Jones as a true floor general, Vooch playing like a confident veteran leader, and key scoring contributions from the bench (Kevin Huerter, Patrick Williams, Ayo Dosunmu, Jalen Smith) have completely changed the rhythm of this roster. And that defense? Number one in the league right now. We also dive into Matas Buzelis' early development, the identity of this roster, and how Billy Donovan is finally playing the hot hand instead of defaulting to “contract-favored” lineups. The Bulls are showing depth, chemistry, discipline, and effort — things fans have been begging for over the past few seasons. Finally, we preview the upcoming matchup vs the Atlanta Hawks and give our predictions. Are the Bulls for real? Or is this just early-season hype? Either way… it feels good to be optimistic again.

We go over them and talk about which players are being mocked to the Bulls...including Khaman Maluach, Derik Queen, Noa Essengue, and Jase Richardson.

Also, we talk about Jon Hollinger and Bobby Marks articles detailing what they think Josh Giddey's contract should be this offseason. Is the number they each gave too high or too low?
On this episode, Big Dave and Will Gottlieb talk about the huge NBA trade that sends Desmond Bane from the Memphis Grizzlies to the Orlando Magic for two players and four first round picks plus a first round swap. Did the Magic give up too much to acquire Bane? Plus, with Bane now in the Eastern Conference, how does this shift the Chicago Bulls offseason plans? How is Coby White's potential trade market impacted? Also, Marc Stein joins the show to discuss his report that the Bulls are in negotiations to extend head coach Billy Donovan's contract.
