So we’ve finally arrived. The final third. The last dance. The real ‘‘no bull’’ tour. In ninth place. Only 10 slots matter. Four games below .500, 4½ games out of being out of the play-in. We are here, though. Here for the so-called ‘‘playoff push.’’ All rise for our new Bulls.
Feels the same though, right? No different than before the All-Star break, when they were supposed to use that escape to come back as a different team with a Boa Constrictor Mentality putting a chokehold on the rest of the regular season.
