Things might not end well for the Bulls this season.
The vibes inside the Chicago Bulls’ locker may be well and good, as the team has won four straight games to improve to 9-14. However, an expert believes this season will not end well for the Bulls and predicts they’ll finish with a subpar 28-54 record.
The teardown may finally happen
The Bulls’ faithful may frown at this prognosis, but the silver lining to this — if it does come to fruition — is that the long-awaited teardown of this underachieving roster may finally come to fruition. However, the operative term here is “may,” as history shows the team’s chief basketball executive, Arturas Karnisovas, to be patient in his decision-making, which means a shake-up may not come at all.

“Chicago Bulls fans should take solace in a sub-30-win projection. It suggests that executive vice president Arturas Karnisovas will finally burn down what should have been set aflame years ago,” Dan Favale wrote for Bleacher Report.
“On the other hand, perhaps I’m giving The Windy City’s front office too much credit. We have years of evidence proving Chicago will do everything in its power to remain aggressively sub-mediocre,” Favale continued.

Should the Bulls hold on to this roster?
Hope springs eternal for this Bulls team. They have won straight games after a brutal stretch that saw them lose eight of nine games. However, Favale argues that this promising stretch shouldn’t distract the front office from what needs to be done – overhaul the roster and start anew.
“Could LaVine’s absence wind up galvanizing the Bulls in a way that convinces them to move him for additional depth while holding onto DeRozan, Jevon Carter, Alex Caruso, Torrey Craig, Patrick Williams, et al.? It shouldn’t. But these are the Bulls. So it might,” Favale added.
