Welcome fellow Bulls fan!
As you know, finding great Bulls Tickets is probably the hardest part of being a Bulls supporter, but here you will find information on how to obtain 'hard to get' and 'sold out' tickets.
2007-08 Chicago Bulls
Chicago is doing well to enjoy these elements whilst they have them under contract next season. On the downside, the Bulls ended up paying a bit too much for Big Ben’s contract – and might make it harder for the bulls to hang on to their talented young players. Chicago continues to be one of the best teams in the Eastern Conference, with chemistry and youth in their starting five – and a great coach in Scott Skiles. The Bulls can score as well as they can play defense, and the only problem in the horizon for the upcoming season are the high salaries of their players. Chicago will have to do some money magic if they want to keep all the elements in a winning team. With a little more inside scoring, the Bulls will definitely be the team to contend with next season
Previous Seasons
Chicago Bulls tickets used to be the hottest tickets in the windy city. Every night there would be a sellout, as Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen would lead a collection of stars to the top of the NBA each year. Having Chicago Bulls tickets meant having tickets to the NBA Playoffs, and the NBA Finals. Then the dynamic duo departed, and it all came to a stop immediately.
Seven years later, it looks like the ship has finally been righted. A collection of high-profile college All-Americans has restored order at the United Center. Kirk Hinrich, Ben Gordon, Luol Deng, and Christ Duhon have forged a team based on stifling perimeter defense. The Bulls are quicker than most teams in the league, and all their guards are ball-hawks. The offense seems to come from a different place each night, as they are able to score points in bunches off of their turnovers. The “Win” is back in “Windy City,” and hopes are high for Chicago Bulls.
The Bulls successes in the 90’s were well documented. Six NBA Championships and the greatness of Michael Jordan speak for themselves. The Jordan and Pippen were able to reach the top with two sets of entirely different teams. Coach Phil Jackson had the ability to make the most difficult personalities gel, and the team was one of the first to start looking abroad when they brought on Toni Kukoc in 1993.
The thing that went unnoticed during the good years was that both Jordan and Pippen made significant strides through the course of playing together. They both improved immensely as all-around players, turning weaknesses into strengths over time.
Jordan came into the league as a slasher. He was able to get by on his athletic skills and score 30 points a game. But year after year he worked on his shooting. By the early 90’s Jordan was already well known for his high-flying game, but was completely unappreciated as a mid-range shooter. From inside of 18 feet there was no better shooter in the NBA. It got to a point where his outside shot was more feared than his ability to penetrate.
Meanwhile Pippen’s floor skills developed over time as well. He came into the league with a ton of talent, and nothing else. By the time he left the Bulls he was an unrivaled jack-of-all-trades. If he needed to shut down the top players in the league, he could. If he needed to score, he would net 20 points a game. If he needed to be a floor general, that was not a problem either. It was this development as players that made the Bulls the juggernaut of their era. They were never satisfied with where they were at as individuals, or as a team.
Chicago hopes that they have a new group of players who grow and improve each year. There are no Jordans on this team (Deng could be a Pippen one day), but there are several players that compete every night. They have the making of a Detroit Pistons-type squad, who gets after teams on the defensive end, and does it with difficult match-ups on the offensive side. If things continue to develop, Chicago Bulls ticket holders may be getting another joy ride to the NBA Finals in the near future. |
