Bulls vs. Sixers final score: Bulls blown out real good
David Banks-USA TODAY Sports first humble pie eaten in the PatBev era Just when I was ready to believe...wait, no: I was never going to believe the Bulls were suddenly good. Just that they were average like their talent suggested. Tonight at home the Sixers made them look far worse than that. Philadelphia quickly enacted revenge on the Bulls after losing to them a couple nights prior. They started the game quickly jumping out to a 17-0 lead, led by 28 at half, and coasted the rest of the way for what was ultimately a 116-91 final score. Sixers star Joel Embiid...

Bulls vs. Sixers game preview and thread: is a second straight upset win in the cards?
Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports can Chicago beat a Sixers team with a healthy Joel Embiid twice in a row? On Monday night, the Play-In PatBev Bulls did the borderline-unthinkable, winning a low-scoring double-overtime rock fight, 109-105, against a Philadelphia 76ers club featuring a healthy Joel Embiid, the likely 2023 MVP, for the first time in 13 meetings. Chicago was abetted by the fact that James Harden looked severely hungover in stumbling to a meager five points (plus 12 assists and seven rebounds) on 2-of-14 shooting in 46:37. Embiid was hardly stifled, scoring...

How I learned to (mostly) stop worrying and (sorta) love the Play-in PatBev Bulls
Bill Streicher-USA TODAY Sports who knew, adding players helps! Even at this season’s many depths, there was no real point where you could give up on the dream of the Bulls making the top TEN seeds in the conference. It wasn’t so much what they were doing on the floor, as the knowledge that: They weren’t going to tank by holding out, say, DeRozan and Caruso They had too much talent to be truly as bad as their record, and could look more like an average-to-below-average team that got some unlucky clutch bounces (just some unlucky, others were earned) They just...

Bulls vs. Sixers final score: the Embiid streak is over as Bulls win in double overtime again
Photo by Tim Nwachukwu/ A solid road win for the Bulls After their marathon win in double overtime at the United Center on Friday night, the Chicago Bulls found themselves in a similar situation in Philadelphia two days later. The Bulls had the upper hand late as they led by two thanks to a couple of free throws from Zach LaVine. It also aided Chicago that Joel Embiid, who was playing on 5 fouls since the middle of the 4th quarter, had finally fouled out a couple of minutes earlier. Now just one defensive stop separated them from victory. James Harden, who struggled...

Bulls vs. Sixers game preview and thread: the PatBev era’s biggest test
David Banks-USA TODAY Sports can the Bulls finally beat Embiid? I don’t know why I am getting upset that people paid to come up with storylines for this season (some directly by the team itself) are doing just that. Viscerally, reading about how the Bulls are a different team with Patrick Beverley (7-4, with 2 very close losses nevermind those close wins) and have great net ratings since his arrival (blowing out the Nets by 60 points helps the differential), makes me twitchy, as if somehow Arturas Karnisovas will have it printed out for him and he’ll sigh through...
