The Bulls secured a nice win as they headed into the break, beating a somehow-worse-than-them-though-having-a-lot-of-talent Pelicans group. They sit at 16-18 and tied in the 9th/10th ‘seed’ in the East with the Pacers. As we’re all well aware, the Bulls are part of a giant turd blockage in this toilet of a conference where eight teams between slots 4-12 are separated by four games.
A couple of those teams are behind even them though, the Pistons and Cavaliers, and both were identified today by Shams Charania of the Athletic as clear sellers heading into this month’s trade deadline.
