On this episode, Matt, Big Dave & Will break down the Bulls 126-98 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday night. After a 20-20 back and forth battle to begin the game, the Bulls offense went cold and it affected their focus and effort on defense. Sadly, that's been a common story this season. The defending champs wasted no time running them off the floor. Any time the Bulls tried to make a run fro...

On this episode, Matt, Big Dave & Will break down the Bulls 113-99 win over the Toronto Raptors on Monday night.
