Competitive dynamics in the NBA are often unexpected, as evidenced by what is happening with the Chicago Bulls. In just a few weeks, they have gone from being a team lacking goals and direction to believing in their chances of already building something significant, defeating top teams and challenging the favorites in the Eastern Conference playoffs.
Winning nine out of the last eleven games cannot be a coincidence. The level of confidence that the Chicago Bulls are accumulating could be truly worrisome for their postseason opponents. While it is true that no one gave much credit to the idea that a team from the play-in in the Eastern Conference could surprise the Cavs or the Celtics, seeing the Illinois team in this streak, defeating prestigious rivals, more and more people believe they could be a formidable rival.
They are just 1.5 games behind the eighth spot currently held by the Orlando Magic, and it will be interesting to see if they push to have two chances to secure a playoff spot or risk it all by aiming for the ninth or tenth position, with Miami Heat as their rival in this showdown. It may seem unfair, but Boston Celtics appear to offer more assurances than Cleveland Cavaliers in an initial playoff series, leading many to fantasize about the possibility of seeing the Chicago Bulls facing off against the Ohio team. Right now, it feels like they could compete against them.
