Media days were taking place all across the NBA yesterday and it was no different for the Chicago Bulls. The big takeaway has been the goal, repeated by nearly everyone, to make the playoffs this season. However you may feel about that, there were other important quotes that show the Bulls have a plan to make their postseason hopes a reality.
“We want to be known as a defensive team. Bringing that toughness, that grit, protecting home court – it starts on defense and in training camp we’re going to emphasis this.” – Otto Porter Jr
This is huge because the Bulls were atrocious on defense last year, finishing 25th in defensive rating.
