Bulls Get Ready For Preseason

The Chicago Bulls wrapped up their first practice sessions on Saturday. Their first practice session began at 10:00 A.M., and their second came at 4:30 P.M. The two-a-day practice sessions will continue through Wednesday, September 30. Chicago will tip-off their eight-game preseason schedule on Friday, October 2, when they visit the Indiana Pacers. The Bulls will then travel across the pond to take on the Utah Jazz in England as part of NBA Europe Live presented by EA Sports on Oct. 6. Other preseason contests include: at Milwaukee Bucks (Oct. 10 in Green Bay, Wis.), vs. Milwaukee Bucks (Oct. 13), at Minnesota Timberwolves (Oct. 14), vs. Minnesota Timberwolves (Oct. 16), vs. Orlando Magic (Oct. 19) and vs. Washington Wizards (Oct. 23). The team will then tip-off the regular season on Oct. 29 at the United Center against the San Antonio Spurs. Many Bulls’ fans are wondering how good Chicago will be this season since Ben Gordon has left. How much will the loss of Gordon affect the Bulls? If you ask the Bulls, they will tell you the loss of Gordon will not effect them much, but NBA commentators think the exact opposite. John Salmons will have some big shoes to fill as he slides into Gordon’s vacated shooting guard slot.
