The Bulls’ win percentages since their rebuild began–329, .268, .338, .431–aren’t pretty.
So, yes, a .570 clip and playoff berth marks progress. Even if the gap between the Bulls and elite status remains.

East standings remain tightly packed with three games to play. Brooklyn moving up to eighth, which means they’d be the seventh seed if they won that first play-in game, is a massive wild card.

Don’t think they will, but it would make sense for #Bulls to rest everyone tonight vs. Milwaukee. Help push the Bucks toward that 2 seed where Bulls wouldn’t have to play them in first round, come back rested for Boston tomorrow. – 11:02 AM
