Two years ago, the Chicago Bulls pushed their chips on the table, trading for Nikola Vucevic. With the deal, they committed to a new-look squad that had one goal – to make the playoffs. They were done rebuilding, and since then, they broke their four-year postseason drought but took a step back this past season, getting bounced in the Play-In Tournament.
Now, Arturas Karnisovas is intent on keeping the same core together, but if that’s his plan, he needs to add pieces to the team. Zach LaVine is the head of the snake in Chicago, and while DeMar DeRozan and Nikola Vucevic are important pieces, Karnisovas should make moves to help LaVine.
