The Chicago Bulls certainly endured their fair share of losing during Year 1 of their rebuild. Here’s a look at the five biggest losses from the 2017-18 season.

On the heels of an offseason that signaled the end of an era, the Chicago Bulls entered the 2017-18 campaign with little expectations and they lived up to them for the most part. They dropped 20 of their first 23 games en route to a 3-20 start.

The Bulls also finished near the bottom of the league in both points allowed (110 points per game) and defensive efficiency (110.8 points per 100 possessions) and as you can imagine, having won just 32.9 percent of their games, there was definitely a lot heartache and frustration to contend with.

In fact, there were six separate occasions in which the Bulls lost four straight games on their way to losing 55 games. To put the 55 losses in perspective, you would have to go all the way back to the 2003-04 campaign for the last time the Bulls recorded more than 50 losses in a season.

By now, I’m sure you what the theme is here. So without further ado, here’s a look back at Bulls’ five worst losses from the 2017-18 season.
