The Bulls just defeated the Pistons 97-82. As of right now, the Chicago Bulls have the best record in the NBA .. sitting alone on the mountain top at 3-0. So far, DEBALLZACH has proven to be a formidable trio. Add Nikola Vucevic and Alex Caruso into the mix, and the Bulls look like they’re ready to make some noise this season.
The Bucks handle the Bulls 116-100 and send them home to Chicago for the off-season..
Grayson Allen exorcizes Milwaukee’s Mike Dunleavy Jr. demons.
FADED.
After getting burned by Heat Culture, the Bulls now can maybe choose a direction for the franchise.

![r/nba - [Wojnarowski] BREAKING: The Chicago Bulls are trading two-time All-Defensive guard Alex Caruso to the Oklahoma City Thunder for guard Josh Giddey, sources tell ESPN.](http://web.archive.org./web/20240828115159im_/https://b.thumbs.redditmedia.com/AH2Exfv1vqasu37ohUi4_hXJOK7Puj_jHdgffe7j99Y.jpg)
With loss against the Miami Heat, the Chicago Bulls have been eliminated from playoffs contention for the 2023 NBA season.
Fade 'em
What remains to be seen, however, is what direction do the Bulls go? Do they prepare for DeMar DeRozan possibly leaving in free agency or if he does return — the more likely scenario — draft his heir apparent at the small forward position? Do they grab a big to replace the expected vacancy with Andre Drummond looking for a new team, as well as some youth to push starter Nikola Vucevic?
