The Chicago Bulls have had a number of good players on their roster during their 50 seasons in the NBA. We will take a look at the best starting five to take the court during that time.

The Chicago Bulls just completed their 50th season in the NBA. Unfortunately, they finished with a less than impressive 42-40 mark and missed the playoffs for the first time in eight years.

On the positive side, the Bulls have been to the playoffs 34 times over the past five decades. Even more important, they have won six titles, which is the third-highest total of any team in the association.

The two teams ahead of them are the Boston Celtics — who lead the league with 17 championships — and the Los Angeles Lakers — who have won 16 titles, with their most recent one coming in 2010.

As you can imagine, a number of great players have suited up for the Bulls during the past five decades. To commemorate the completion of their 50th season, we will take a look at the team’s top-five starters at each position.
