With the Chicago Bulls suffering their 21st loss of the season, a 123-102 drubbing at the hands of the Milwaukee Bucks, it is understandable that some fans have become numb to the disappointment. It hasn’t always been this way. The Bulls had the league on lock in the mid-to-late ‘90s. It’s common to hear hyperbole of eight-straight titles had Michael Jordan not retired.
The time since has been filled with some hope, sure. But for the most part, it has been one letdown after another. Some have been beyond team control, while others, some might argue, they had a direct hand in.
