    The Chicago Bulls are ranked 27th in post-free agency NBA power rankings, and Bulls fans have every reason to ask one question: is that fair, or is Chicago being overlooked again? 👀🐂   On today’s episode of Locked On Bulls, Haize and Pat The Designer react to the Bulls being placed near the bottom of the league after an offseason that brought in Caleb Wilson, Dailyn Swain, Nic Claxton, Norman Powell, and Zach Collins. Did the national view of Chicago ignore the actual roster improvements, or does the ranking expose the reality that the Bulls still have major questions?   The guys break down where the Bulls stand after free agency and whether Bryson Graham’s first offseason should be viewed as patient, calculated, and development-focused — or too conservative for a team that still needed more shooting, playmaking, and lineup balance.   Haize and Pat also debate the biggest missed opportunity of the Bulls’ offseason. Was it failing to add another proven three-point shooter? Not using the final roster spot aggressively? Not making a bigger trade? Or was the real missed opportunity not creating a clearer path toward either winning now or fully rebuilding?   Plus, the guys discuss Tiago Splitter being hyped for Dailyn Swain and why the rookie may be one of the most underrated storylines entering Summer League and training camp. Swain may not be getting the same attention as Caleb Wilson, but his defensive tools, size, athleticism, and developmental upside could make him a major piece in Chicago’s future.   The Bulls have a new front office direction, a new head coach, and a more interesting roster — but being ranked 27th shows that respect still has to be earned. Now the question is whether Chicago can prove the league wrong, or whether the concerns about this offseason are valid.   🎙️ Tune in to Locked On Bulls as Haize and Pat break down the Bulls’ low power ranking, the biggest missed opportunity of the offseason, and why Tiago Splitter’s belief in Dailyn Swain could matter more than fans realize.   Follow Locked On Bulls on Twitter Locked On Bulls: https://twitter.com/LockedOnBulls Haize: https://twitter.com/CEOHaize Pat: https://twitter.com/PatTheDesigner   Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

The Tiago Splitter era is officially underway, and his first Summer League practice may have already given Chicago Bulls fans a glimpse into the tone, identity, and expectations he wants to establish. 👀🐂   On today’s episode of Locked On Bulls, Haize and Pat The Designer react to Tiago Splitter setting the tone at the Bulls’ first Summer League practice and what that could mean for a team trying to build a new culture under a new front office and coaching staff.   The guys discuss whether the Bulls are forming a real team with a clear identity — or if this roster is still just a fun collection of young talent, veteran scoring, and intriguing upside. With Matas Buzelis, Caleb Wilson, Dailyn Swain, Josh Giddey, Nic Claxton, Norman Powell, and Zach Collins all part of the new-look roster, Chicago has more interesting pieces than before. But do those pieces actually fit together?   Haize and Pat also ask whether Bulls fans are sleeping on Dailyn Swain. The rookie may not be getting the same level of attention as Caleb Wilson, but his size, defensive tools, athleticism, and long-term upside could make him one of the more important development stories of the season.   Topics Include: Tiago Splitter’s first Summer League practice tone What Splitter’s early message says about Bulls culture Are the Bulls building a real team identity? Is Chicago more than just a fun collection of talent? Dailyn Swain’s upside and possible role Why Bulls fans should pay attention to Swain in Summer League Caleb Wilson and the young core development track How the new roster fits around Josh Giddey and Matas Buzelis What expectations should be for Splitter in year one   The Bulls have new talent, a new coach, and a new direction — but now comes the real question: can Tiago Splitter turn interesting pieces into a team that actually makes sense?   🎙️ Tune in to Locked On Bulls as Haize and Pat break down Tiago Splitter’s first Summer League practice, the Bulls’ roster identity, and why Dailyn Swain may be one of the most underrated storylines in Chicago.   Follow Locked On Bulls on Twitter Locked On Bulls: https://twitter.com/LockedOnBulls Haize: https://twitter.com/CEOHaize Pat: https://twitter.com/PatTheDesigner   Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

The Chicago Bulls’ offseason is not done yet, and the next wave of storylines starts with Summer League, one open roster spot, and Matas Buzelis getting more international reps. 👀🐂   On today’s episode of Locked On Bulls, Haize and Pat The Designer break down the Bulls Summer League schedule and the biggest things fans should be watching once Chicago’s young players hit the floor. With rookies like Caleb Wilson and Dailyn Swain entering the spotlight, Summer League could give Bulls fans an early look at how the next phase of the roster is coming together.   The guys also debate whether Gary Trent Jr. should be a serious option for the Bulls’ final roster spot. Chicago still needs more three-point shooting, spacing, and reliable perimeter offense around Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis, Caleb Wilson, Nic Claxton, and Norman Powell. Could Trent be the veteran shooter who makes the roster more balanced? Or should Bryson Graham keep that final spot open for flexibility?   Plus, Haize and Pat discuss Matas Buzelis playing with Lithuania in FIBA competition and why that experience could matter for his development. More reps, more responsibility, and a different style of basketball could help Matas continue building toward the Year 3 leap Bulls fans are hoping for.   Topics Include: Bulls Summer League schedule preview Biggest Summer League players to watch Caleb Wilson and Dailyn Swain development storylines Gary Trent Jr. as a final roster spot option Why the Bulls still need more shooting Should Chicago prioritize spacing or flexibility? Matas Buzelis playing with Lithuania How FIBA reps could help Matas’ development Bryson Graham’s next roster decision   The Bulls have made major changes, but the margins still matter. Summer League could show what the young core is building, while the final roster spot could decide whether Chicago has enough shooting to make the offense work.   🎙️ Tune in to Locked On Bulls as Haize and Pat break down the Bulls Summer League schedule, Gary Trent Jr.’s possible fit, and what Matas Buzelis’ FIBA run could mean for his next step.   Follow Locked On Bulls on Twitter Locked On Bulls: https://twitter.com/LockedOnBulls Haize: https://twitter.com/CEOHaize Pat: https://twitter.com/PatTheDesigner   Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

The Chicago Bulls have rebuilt the roster, but one major question still hangs over everything: do they have enough three-point shooting to make this offense work? 👀🐂   On today’s episode of Locked On Bulls, Haize and Pat The Designer break down just how big the Bulls’ shooting issue could be heading into the 2026-27 NBA season. Chicago has added talent, athleticism, defense, and scoring upside, but spacing remains one of the biggest concerns around a roster featuring Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis, Caleb Wilson, Dailyn Swain, Nic Claxton, Norman Powell, and Zach Collins.   The guys discuss whether the Bulls have enough reliable shooters to create driving lanes, keep defenses honest, and help Tiago Splitter build a functional offense in year one. Is this simply a roster flaw that can be managed, or is the lack of shooting serious enough to limit Chicago’s ceiling?   Haize and Pat also dive into the bench rotation battle. With a deeper roster and several young players fighting for minutes, not everyone can play. Who gets left out of the rotation? Which young players need consistent development minutes? And how should the Bulls balance winning games with building for the future?   Plus, the guys set expectations for Tiago Splitter’s first season as Bulls head coach. With a rebuilt roster, a new identity, and pressure to show progress, what should fans realistically expect from Splitter in year one?   Topics Include: How big is the Bulls’ three-point shooting problem? Can Chicago build a functional offense without elite spacing? Who should make the Bulls bench rotation? Which players could be left out of regular minutes? Tiago Splitter’s year one expectations How Splitter can maximize the rebuilt roster Bulls’ offensive identity entering 2026-27 Development vs. winning for Chicago’s young core   The Bulls have more talent than they did before, but talent alone does not guarantee balance. If Chicago wants to take a real step forward, shooting, rotation decisions, and coaching identity will decide how far this rebuilt roster can go.   🎙️ Tune in to Locked On Bulls as Haize and Pat break down the Bulls’ shooting concerns, bench rotation battles, and Tiago Splitter’s expectations in year one with Chicago.   Follow Locked On Bulls on Twitter Locked On Bulls: https://twitter.com/LockedOnBulls Haize: https://twitter.com/CEOHaize Pat: https://twitter.com/PatTheDesigner   Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

The Chicago Bulls’ 2026-27 roster looks very different — and now the expectations have to change with it. 👀🐂   On today’s episode of Locked On Bulls, Haize and Pat The Designer break down what Bulls fans should realistically expect from Chicago after an offseason that added Caleb Wilson, Dailyn Swain, Nic Claxton, and Norman Powell to the roster.   The Bulls now have more athleticism, more defensive versatility, more veteran scoring, and a clearer identity around the young core. But does that mean Chicago should be viewed as a serious Play-In team? A playoff threat? Or is this still a development year where progress matters more than wins?   Haize and Pat discuss how Caleb Wilson and Dailyn Swain fit into the future, what Nic Claxton gives Chicago defensively, and why Norman Powell could be one of the most important additions if the Bulls want to fix their scoring and spacing issues.   The guys also look at the Bulls’ final open roster spot and debate what Bryson Graham should do with it. Should Chicago add more shooting? Another ball-handler? A veteran big? Or should the Bulls leave flexibility open for a future trade?   Plus, Haize and Pat give their honest thoughts on Bryson Graham’s first offseason running the Bulls. Did Graham move with patience and purpose? Did he address the right needs? And has this new front office already started to reshape the direction of Bulls basketball?   Topics Include: Bulls 2026-27 season expectations Caleb Wilson’s role as a rookie Dailyn Swain’s long-term upside Nic Claxton’s defensive impact Norman Powell’s scoring and shooting fit What the Bulls should do with their final roster spot Bryson Graham’s first offseason review Did Chicago build a more balanced roster? Bulls Play-In and playoff outlook   The Bulls may not be a finished product yet, but this offseason has created a clearer path forward. Now the question is whether this new-look roster can turn potential into real progress.   🎙️ Tune in to Locked On Bulls as Haize and Pat break down expectations for the 2026-27 Chicago Bulls, the final roster decisions ahead, and Bryson Graham’s first offseason leading the franchise.     Follow Locked On Bulls on Twitter Locked On Bulls: https://twitter.com/LockedOnBulls Haize: https://twitter.com/CEOHaize Pat: https://twitter.com/PatTheDesigner   Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

The Chicago Bulls made their first move of NBA free agency by re-signing Zach Collins to a two-year, $17 million deal — but was that the right opening move for Bryson Graham and this new front office? 👀🐂   On today’s episode of Locked On Bulls, Haize and Pat The Designer break down what Zach Collins returning means for the Bulls’ frontcourt, rotation, and offseason flexibility. Collins gives Chicago another experienced big man, but the bigger question remains: does this move actually solve enough for a roster that still needs shooting, scoring, and reliable depth?   The guys also react to a surprisingly quiet Day One of free agency, not just for the Bulls, but around the NBA as a whole. With fewer major moves than expected, did Chicago benefit from staying patient? Or should Bulls fans be concerned that the front office has not been more aggressive early?   Haize and Pat then look at the best remaining free agent targets who could still make sense for the Bulls. Chicago still needs more perimeter shooting, wing scoring, and lineup balance around Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis, Caleb Wilson, Dailyn Swain, and the rest of the young core. The Bulls may have brought Collins back, but the offseason work is far from finished.   Topics Include: Bulls re-sign Zach Collins to a two-year, $17 million deal What Collins brings back to Chicago’s frontcourt Was this a smart value move or too safe? Quiet Day One of NBA free agency Why the Bulls may still be waiting for the market to settle Best free agents still available for Chicago How Bryson Graham can still fix the roster Bulls’ biggest remaining needs after Day One   The Bulls have made their first move, but now the pressure shifts to what comes next. Can Bryson Graham add enough shooting and scoring to make this roster more functional, or is Chicago heading toward another offseason full of patience and unanswered questions?   🎙️ Tune in to Locked On Bulls as Haize and Pat break down Zach Collins’ new deal, the quiet start to NBA free agency, and the best remaining targets for the Chicago Bulls.   Follow Locked On Bulls on Twitter Locked On Bulls: https://twitter.com/LockedOnBulls Haize: https://twitter.com/CEOHaize Pat: https://twitter.com/PatTheDesigner   Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.

Chicago Bulls free agency rumors are heating up, and the front office may already have its focus locked in. 👀🔥   On today’s episode of Locked On Bulls, Haize and Pat The Designer break down the latest Bulls rumors surrounding Norman Powell, who could reportedly be a major focus for Chicago when NBA free agency opens. Would Powell give the Bulls the scoring, spacing, and veteran shot-making this roster badly needs?   The guys also discuss the buzz around Max Strus wanting to be a Bull and whether Chicago should seriously explore adding another proven shooter to help fix one of the team’s biggest problems. With Josh Giddey, Matas Buzelis, Caleb Wilson, Dailyn Swain, and Nic Claxton shaping the next version of the Bulls, floor spacing has to become a priority if this offense is going to work.   Haize and Pat also dive into whether a return involving Collin Sexton, John Collins, or Anfernee Simons could make sense for the Bulls. Would any of those players fit Bryson Graham’s vision? Or would Chicago be better off avoiding short-term fixes and staying patient with the rebuild?   Topics Include: Norman Powell as a Bulls free agency focus Max Strus wanting to come to Chicago Bulls’ need for more shooting and scoring Collin Sexton, John Collins, and Anfernee Simons trade possibilities How Bryson Graham can reshape the roster Best veteran fits around the Bulls’ young core What Chicago still needs after the NBA Draft   The Bulls have young talent, defensive upside, and a new direction — but can Bryson Graham finally fix the shooting issue that has held this team back for years?   🎙️ Tune in to Locked On Bulls as Haize and Pat break down the latest Chicago Bulls free agency rumors, trade targets, and offseason moves that could change the direction of the franchise.   Follow Locked On Bulls on Twitter Locked On Bulls: https://twitter.com/LockedOnBulls Haize: https://twitter.com/CEOHaize Pat: https://twitter.com/PatTheDesigner   Everydayer Club If you never miss an episode, it’s time to make it official.
