Key Acquisitions: – Mike Dunleavy

The Chicago Bulls are a tough set of players who despite having a injury-riddled season made into the second round of the Playoffs. Of course for them to compete for a championship they have will have to be fully healthy but their unbeaten pre-season run would give them confidence heading into the season opener in 3 days.

Derrick Rose was a major factor why the Bulls have been successful in the past as well in this year’s pre-season. He is back from injury, after a long rehab, faster, more explosive and more determined.

The signing of Mike Dunleavy from the Milwaukee Bucks is a key to helping address the Bulls so called weak perimeter shooting.
