Bonding and Building on the Road
When the Bulls go on any kind of extended road trip, like this recent Circus Trip, it is a definitely bonding experience. The Bulls have not had a lot of success in recent years on the West Coast, but what I saw on this last trip was that the players have begun to rely on each other and are starting to come together as a team.
The Bulls finished with a 3-4 record, but could have been 5-2 with a couple of stronger finishes in Denver and San Antonio.
Now that they are back home, the Bulls face a favorable schedule with 8 sub-.500 teams coming up. The Bulls could go 8-0, 6-2 or 5-3 and that would be a real confidence-booster as they will face the Boston Celtics later this month.
