Although the Chicago Bulls 2017-18 season is off to a rough start, there are a few positives that are worth discussing.
The new-look Chicago Bulls have already encountered their fair share of struggles this season. For instance, they have the worst record in the NBA, dropping to 3-20 following a 98-96 road loss to the Indiana Pacers.
Secondly, in spite of the up-tempo offense the team has been trying to implement, the Bulls aren’t exactly striking fear into the heart of their opponents. Case in point, they are averaging just 95.7 points per contest, which is the league’s lowest scoring average.
Additionally, their offensive rating of 98.8 points per 100 possessions is the worst mark in NBA. Those stats, along with the fact the Bulls are ranked 18th in points allowed and 26th in defensive rating, make it reasonable to presume there’s little for this fanbase to be excited about, right?
Well, that isn’t entirely true.
While the Bulls will continue to lose a ton of games and will more than likely finish with the worst record in the league, there are a few noteworthy positives that warrant discussion.
Today, we will take a quick look at them.
