Welp.
It’s been a brutal period for the Chicago Bulls. Over a decade since they won their division, the Bulls are never bad enough to secure a top draft pick and land a superstar, and never good enough to truly contend for anything other than an early playoff exit.
On Wednesday night the local broadcast of the Bulls game encapsulated it perfectly.

Spot the lie. Look, the Bulls are fine, but that’s the issue. They’re constantly “fine.” For years they’ve hovered around .500, made the playoffs a couple of times, but never moving forward or backwards — the endless Sisyphean Torment of the NBA.
Still though, I don’t know if you need to say so matter of factly like this. It just feels cruel.
Anyway, the Bulls managed to beat the Orlando Magic 102-99 on Wednesday night, taking their season record to 3-2 on the year. A record which is … fine.
