The Chicago Bulls decided to change the structure of their team two years ago. They traded for Nikola Vucevic and signed DeMar DeRozan the following summer, creating a Big 3 of those two and Zach LaVine. Unfortunately, the Bulls have only won a single playoff game since then.
All three players are multi-time All-Stars capable of helping the Bulls put together a relatively competitive season. And while some begged them to blow up the roster this summer, Chicago decided to double down on their win-now plans, adding depth pieces and bringing back their core players. But none of that matters unless one player picks up the pace – Patrick Williams.
