What do I expect the Bulls to accomplish in 2021-22?
Not many teams have the talent that the Chicago Bulls do entering the season. A starting lineup of Ball, LaVine, DeRozan, Williams, and Vucevic has the potential to be one of the best groups in the NBA.
Not to mention, Chicago has Caruso, Coby White, and Derrick Jones Jr. coming off of the bench. It remains to be seen if Billy Donovan is the right coach for this new-look Bulls team.
It’s justified to have high expectations for the Bulls, even with the organization giving no reason to have confidence in them in recent years. There’s just too much talent on Chicago’s roster for them to not be a playoff team in the Eastern Conference.
While some may believe they can fight for a spot in the NBA Finals, I think we need to pump the brakes on those expectations.

Given the moves the Bulls made in the offseason, I predict them securing a four or five seed in the East, and then they make a run to the second round of the playoffs before being eliminated.
