The Chicago Bulls are a very young team. Just a couple of seasons ago, they were one of the top teams in the Eastern Conference.
Led by the skill of Ben Gordon and Luol Deng, this team was a force to be reckoned with. Ultimately, things collapsed in Chicago, which led to the firing of head coach Scott Skiles.
If the Bulls want to challenge for the East title any time soon they will need to more consistent and beat the teams they should. It's great to step up for the big games, but consistency is crucial.
Much of the Bulls' success hinges upon the youth of this team. It seems as if each season, the Chicago Bulls are acquiring more promising young talent, and one season, everything will gel. This may be the year. Let's take a look at some of the players in the mix.
John Salmons has his best season to date scoring' points per game for the Bulls last season, the Bulls will need all the points they can get from him.
It's been over 10 years since the Bulls last won a championship - but the Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and Phil Jackson era is still fresh in many of the Bulls fans minds.
And then there's Luol Deng, still only 24 years of age. He's had some bad luck with injuries, but if Deng can stay healthy, he will add a great value to this team.
There's plenty of talent to go around in Chicago. As the season continues, they will only get better with time. Here's to hoping that head coach Vinny Del Negro does the right things with it. - 29967
