The CHGO Bulls crew discuss the full 2025-26 Chicago Bulls schedule release, and make win or loss picks game by game for all 82! Peck and Willl Gottlieb make their way from the season opener at home against the Detroit Pistons, to the regular season finale against Cooper Flagg and the Mavericks in Dallas. Will the Bulls crush the over on their projected win total, which most Vegas books have in the low thirties? Plus, a clip of our interview with Carlos Boozer that prompts a fascinating question: how many titles do the Bulls win if Derrick Rose never got injured?

The CHGO Bulls crew - with Will Perdue back in studio - discuss which Chicago Bulls player on the current roster has the best shot at being the team’s next All Star player. If Arturas Karnisovas commits to building this roster around Josh Giddey, Coby White and Matas Buzelis, will any of them reach All Star status? If so, when? And what is the ceiling of the team if a) one of them becomes a fringe All Star or b) NONE of them reach even that height. Peck, Will Gottlieb and Will Perdue analyze the possibilities. Plus, a teaser for our interview with Carlos Boozer and the full 2025-26 schedule drops!

The CHGO Bulls crew are joined by Drew Stevens of #TheBIGS to rank every calculated move Arturas Karnisovas has made during the Chicago Bulls 2025 offseason. What was his best move, and what decision looks the worst at present? Peck, Will Gottlieb and Drew analyze all of AK’s moves: re-signing Tre Jones, drafting Noa Essengue, trading Lonzo Ball for Isaac Okoro and signing Billy Donovan to an extension. Plus, they discuss the Bulls schedule drop for the Emirates NBA Cup.

The CHGO Bulls crew welcome OG basketball podcaster and Diehard Chicago Bulls fan Trey Kerby to the show! Kerby has been talking NBA and Bulls basketball for quite awhile, between The Basketball Jones, The Starters on NBATV, and now the No Dunks Podcast for The Athletic. Peck and Will Gottlieb get Trey’s thoughts on all things Bulls: the ceiling for Matas Buzelis, the Josh Giddey contract situation, AK’s vision on team-building and more! Plus, the guys talk about the importance of Isaac Okoro next season, and whether the Bulls’ defensive improvements after last season’s All Star Break were legitimate.

The CHGO Bulls crew welcome The People’s Insider Jake Fischer back to the show! Fischer had some interesting reporting over the past few days about the ongoing negotiations between the Chicago Bulls and restricted free agent Josh Giddey. Are the Golden State Warriors - or any other teams - actively pursuing Giddey? Or are these just fires being started by Giddey’s reps to try to squeeze more money from the Bulls? Peck and Will Gottlieb also react to some reporting from Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints, who doesn’t see any realistic path to Giddey leaving Chicago. Plus, the NBA’s full 2025-26 season schedule will be released later this week! What should Bulls fans be looking for?

The CHGO Bulls crew discuss the first round pick still owed to the Chicago Bulls from the Portland Trail Blazers. In his recent rankings column, Sam Quinn of CBS Sports ranked all 63 future first round draft picks that have been traded across the league. The Blazers’ pick owed to Chicago came in at #36. The big wrinkle: Portland has swap rights with the Milwaukee Bucks in 2028. Can Arturas Karnisovas leverage Portland’s desire to keep that pick swap into getting something more valuable from the Blazers? Peck, Big Dave and Will Gottlieb also react to new fan satisfaction rankings from The Action Network. How (un)satisfied are Bulls fans with the recent and current state of the team?

On this episode, the CHGO Bulls crew get into Brett Seigel’s report from Clutch Points where he states the Chicago Bulls and Josh Giddey are “are expected to reach a resolution on a new contract" near the end of August. Are the years and money reported a fair deal for both sides? Will it come with a player or team option? Also, Indiana Pacers Coach Rick Carlisle was on Caitlin Cooper's Podcast and stated that the NBA brand of basketball is not top heavy super teams anymore; it's more try hard team-focused with multiple good players on the roster. How close are the Bulls to this model? Was Arturas Karnisovas ahead of the curve with his infamous "9 to 10” good players quote? Also, a recent survey of NBA fans across the league was conducted by the Action Network and it had some surprising results on what Bulls fans think about the state of the team, price of tickets and their satisfaction with the Bulls. Matt Peck, Big Dave Watson, and Will Gottlieb discuss that and more.
