With the Bulls' season set to tip off on Thursday against the Toronto Raptors, Bulls beat writer Darnell Mayberry and analyst Stephen Noh chatted about the state of the team, the effects of Bobby Portis' suspension, and what they're looking forward to this year.
Darnell Mayberry: So I walked into some season, huh?
Stephen Noh: Heck of a first week for you.
Mayberry: Everyone keeps telling me this is exactly what I should expect from the franchise. But I have this strange feeling of optimism.
