The Chicago Bulls faced another disappointing end to their season, losing 109-90 to the Miami Heat. This defeat marks the third consecutive elimination for the Bulls in the play-in tournament, emphasizing their struggle with mediocrity for nearly a decade. Despite having players like Josh Giddey and Coby White who could play supporting roles on a championship team, none are franchise cornerstones. The Bulls missed a crucial opportunity to pursue generational talent Cooper Flagg, opting instead for a tepid competitiveness that secured a play-in berth but limited their draft prospects. General Manager Artūras Karnišovas' insistence on patience for a rebuild falls on deaf ears in a fanbase longing for a return to glory. With financial flexibility projected by 2026, the Bulls must seriously consider a reset or risk perpetuating their cycle of disappointment and frustration.
