Bulls Heading in the Wrong Direction

Just when I thought it was safe to get excited about the Bulls, they play like amateurs. I watched a little bit of the Bulls game against the 76ers last night, and I was not impressed. They played inspired basketball in the four previous games and I was beginning to think they could finish strong heading into the postseason. They had a chance to gain another game on the 76ers in the playoff run for the eighth spot, and possibly move up to the seventh position, but they disappointed me again. The 76ers came to play, and simply outplayed the Bulls in every aspect of the game.

I have to keep reminding myself that this is still a very young team, prone to a lot of mistakes and inconsistent play. I never know what kind of Bulls team will take the floor from night to night. At this point, they will be lucky to make the playoffs and probably won't go very far if they did.
