After botching two close road defeats earlier this week, our Chicago Bulls head back to the United Center to host the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 19-23 Bulls, currently the 10th seed in the East, are looking to end their losing streak at two.
It’s hard to know what to expect of these Bulls even when DeMar DeRozan is available thanks to the team’s miserable long-range shooting and erratic defense, but without him nailing clutch jumpers and drawing free throws in the fourth quarter, things have looked rough so far.
On Wednesday, Chicago somehow lost to a Washington Wizards team missing Bradley Beal and Kristaps Porzingis, thanks in part to Zach LaVine doing, uh, this with Chicago trailing by three and 5.
