Derrick Rose memories & Michael Jordan stories with Ray Scarpelli | CHGO Bulls Podcast

The CHGO Bulls Podcast crew welcomes Ray Scarpelli of Ray Auto to the studio! Matt and Big Dave chat with Ray about Derrick Rose retiring, some of his favorite Bulls fan memories and what he thinks of the team’s new direction this season. Plus, Ray shares a great story about Michael Jordan, a Chevy Blazer, and pulling a prank on the Goat. The guys also talk about the Bears’ early season struggles and match Chicago athletes with certain types of cars.

The CHGO Bulls crew react to the breaking news that Derrick Rose, Chicago’s native son, Bulls legend and youngest MVP in NBA history, has retired from basketball. Matt, Big Dave and Will Perdue discuss the highlights of Rose’s career and his lasting impact on Bulls fans and the city of Chicago. Will his #1 jersey be retired by the Bulls? Will he make the Hall of Fame? Plus, Perdue shares some of his thoughts from the Billy Donovan and Arturas Karnisovas interview on 670 The Score.  

The CHGO Bulls crew react to the interview Bulls coach Billy Donovan and VP Arturas Karnisovas did with 670 The Score on Wednesday morning. They praised Zach LaVine, stating confidently that he’s ready for the season and a great fit with their up-tempo offensive goals. They tempered expectations for Lonzo Ball. And they said very clearly that the younger players on the roster will not just be given minutes in the name of the “youth movement”, but will have to earn them. Matt, Big Dave and Will give their biggest takeaways from the interview. Plus, the guys give Joey a proper sendoff on his last day with the company and as lead producer of CHGO Bulls.

The CHGO Bulls crew dissect a new column from The Athletic’s Darnell Mayberry, with news on Zach LaVine’s buy-in during minicamp and Patrick Williams experiencing a setback with his foot surgery rehab. LaVine, who was noticeably absent from earlier offseason activities, did join the team for the player-organized minicamp in Miami. He also attended the recent unofficial minicamp at the Advocate Center. Is there a chance of LaVine peacefully coexisting with the Bulls’ youth movement? And how much of a red flag is the update on Williams? Matt, Big Dave and Will also review Darnell’s notes on Coby White, Lonzo Ball and Matas Buzelis.  An ALLCITY Network Production   SUBSCRIBE TO THE EIGHTY FIVE WITH COLE KMET:    / @the85withcolekmet   BECOME A DIEHARD! https://www.allchgo.com/diehard PARTY WITH US: https://bit.ly/3SRS03z SUBSCRIBE:    / chgosports   ALL THINGS CHGO: https://linktr.ee/chgosports WEBSITE: http://allCHGO.com/ BUY MERCH: https://store.allcitynetwork.com/coll... FOLLOW ON SOCIAL: Twitter: @CHGO_Sports Instagram: @CHGO_Sports GET OUR FREE NEWSLETTER: http://www.allchgo.com/newsletter WATCH YOUR FAVORITE TEAMS: https://www.fubotv.com/chgo Empire Today: Schedule a free in-home estimate today!

The CHGO Bulls crew react to a damning report from The Athletic’s Brittany Ghiroli & Ken Rosenthal on Jerry Reinsdorf’s outdated and failing practices as the White Sox chairman. The Sox are nearing the conclusion of an historically awful season, and many current and former employees aired their grievances - some anonymously - about how Reinsdorf runs the team. Ghiroli and Rosenthal’s main thesis is how Reinsdorf stays stubbornly resistant to change and new information, especially modern analytics, while remaining loyal to unqualified people. Matt, Big Dave and Will break down all the connections and correlations applicable to how Reinsdorf operates as chairman of the Bulls.

The CHGO Bulls Podcast crew continue their annual “Prove It” profiles for each Chicago Bulls player’s upcoming season with Josh Giddey. What can Bulls fans expect from the former Oklahoma City Thunder guard? Matt, Big Dave and Will also continue Eastern Conference team previews with a look at the 2024-25 Orlando Magic.

The CHGO Bulls crew welcome notorious diehard Bulls fan and podcast host See Red Fred to the studio!

The CHGO Bulls crew continue their annual “Prove It” profiles for each Chicago Bulls player’s upcoming season with Patrick Williams. The former 4th overall pick is coming off season-ending surgery on his left foot after playing just 43 games last season. That didn’t stop Bulls management from re-signing Williams to a 5 year, $90 million contract. What does Patrick have to do this season to prove he’s worth that deal? And will he finally get a larger slice of the offensive pie with DeMar DeRozan’s departure? Matt, Big Dave and Will also continue Eastern Conference team previews with a look at the 2024-25 Cleveland Cavaliers, and discuss Goat’s tryout with the Windy City Bulls.

The CHGO Bulls crew continue their annual “Prove It” profiles for each Chicago Bulls player’s upcoming season with Ayo Dosunmu. Ayo had an incredible bounce-back season after a bit of a sophomore slump. He scored a career-high 12.2 points per game, while shooting 50% from the field and 40% on threes. His role changed from starter to reserve throughout the season, playing 76 total games with 37 starts. So what kind of role will Ayo have this year? Can he maintain his strong shooting numbers, and maybe get to the free throw line more? Matt, Big Dave and Will also continue Eastern Conference team previews with a look at the 2024-25 Milwaukee Bucks.
