“The only way you can fight through it is to come together,” Markkanen said.

It's evident that this is what the Chicago Bulls have been trying to do. The last time they faced the Celtics was one week into the Boylen era and they have come a long way from there.

With new tactics, schemes, and an improved team spirit on show Saturday night, this team might slowly be evolving into a force to be reckoned with. The Bulls now have the league's no.2 offence over their last nine games and seem to be hitting their stride.

They were unstoppable at times against the Celtics, with contributions coming from all around. While LaVine and Markkanen rained in the buckets, Robin Lopez too contributed with 17 points while the likes of Ryan Arcidiacono and Wayne Selden Jr. also got in on the act.
