Blackhawks Stealing All The Buzz From Bulls

There are two teams that call the United Center home.

Both are at the start of a long 82-game season. Both have lost their leading scorer from last year (Ben Gordon and Martin Havlat) to a rival (the Pistons and the Wild). Both have stars who recently earned a Rookie of the Year win or nomination (Derrick Rose, Jonathan Toews, Patrick Kane and Kris Versteeg).

Both teams were ousted from last year's playoffs by their league's defending champion and both are widely considered just a few steps away from being their league's next champion. The two teams that share the United Center have a remarkable amount in common.

So why is one team getting all the buzz?....

Because the Bulls kinda suck...?

I mean one team is on the up swing, and other is falling flat… the Hawks are also run by quite possibly the best management team in professional sports… give a few years, I’m sure the guys will get bored and go run the Bulls and turn them around too.

agreed

there are so many things wrong with this Bulls team its not even funny. They could trade away the whole team besides Rose and i would be happy. If I have to hear someone say that Tyrus could be a 20-10 player one more time i will go on a killing spree. Oh and they have a coach that is completely clueless. But wait they might be able to get an 8th seed in the crappy East conference! That means a season is a success right?
