After early season hype around the Chicago Bulls, the franchise and their fans have been brought back down to earth. That's because results have taken a nosedive since the turn of the year for a multitude of reasons. The roster has been constantly plagued by injuries to the likes of Lonzo Ball and Zach LaVine.

However, there is no better time to hit top form than right now. The Bulls will depend on the likes of LaVine, DeMar DeRozan and Nikola Vucevic to help make some serious noise in the postseason and go as deep as possible.
