The New Jazzy Look of the Chicago Bulls
Like the 28 other teams in the NBA that didn’t win the LeBron James-Dwyane Wade-Chris Bosh sweepstakes, the Chicago Bulls can’t truly call the 2010 off season a home run. The Bulls, however, have done a great job improving their roster from a year ago with a number of key signings. Carlos Boozer was the first name to sign on the dotted line in Chicago, providing explosiving young point guard Derrick Rose a top low post scorer to partner with. The Bulls then when on to sign Boozer’s Utah Jazz teammates Kyle Korver and Ronnie Brewer. Kover’s accurate outside shooting could prove highly effective when Rose attacks the basket on the offensive end of the court. The 6-7 small forward will be a nice option for Tom Thibodeau’s team either as a starter or coming off the bench. Korver’s teammate Ronnie Brewer can, like Rose, score off the dribble. Boozer’s chemistry with former teammates Korver and Brewer will allow the Bulls to hit the ground running next season. Former Golden State Warriors guard C.J. Watson also inked with the Bulls last week, giving the team another shooter to come off the bench. The Bulls will need a complete team effort to compete with the Heat, Celtics, and Magic, but the city of Chicago can expect their team to be contenders in the Eastern Conference this season.
