So the Bulls decided to change coaches following a 9-16 start. Scott Skiles coached them to a winning record over five years, an outstanding achievement by the standard of the five previous years.
The question's being asked if the Bulls have what it takes to make a strong playoff run this year.
Absolutely!
This is a team virtually unchanged from last year's campaign. The team is still young enough that the extra year makes them wiser rather than older. The fact is that their shooting percentage current ranks at the bottom of the league. There is still plenty of season left for the offensive funk to end, and this is a team that has starred on defense in recent years. As a former player, I'd say that few things disrupt a team more than a stingy opponent's defense.
You might want to lay off Chicago sports radio station 670 AM until those wins start rolling, though.
