The Bulls’ “wait for cap space” plan sounds nice… until you look at the 2026 free-agent class 😬 So if Chicago has expiring contracts and teams are panicking under the second apron, why wouldn’t the Bulls use the trade deadline to steal young rotation talent NOW? 🐂💰

We break down why deadline deals > free agency, what type of players Chicago should target, and how the market could open up with teams trying to duck future money. Plus… if the Milwaukee Bucks want to add help around Giannis Antetokounmpo, does Coby White become the perfect fit? 👀🦌

And in the middle of this mess, Josh Giddey is still giving the Bulls something real to build on—landing on ESPN’s Top 25 Under 25 list 🚀 while the bigger question hangs in the air: Is this Billy Donovan’s last stand? 🪑🔥

💬 Drop your take: Should the Bulls buy at the deadline or keep hoarding cap space?

The Chicago Bulls continue to spin their wheels — and it’s getting harder to ignore 🚨

On today’s episode of Chicago Bulls Central, host Haize breaks down how AKME’s tenure is becoming defined by missed opportunities, from trade deadlines that pass quietly to draft nights where Chicago refuses to be aggressive.

With 7 expiring contracts, over $70M in salary, and massive trade flexibility, why does this front office continue to sit on its hands? 🤔

We also dive deep into Nikola Vučević’s declining play, why his trade window is rapidly closing ⏳, and how Billy Donovan’s recent rotations may be a sign that the Bulls know what’s coming next.

Is this incompetence… or fear of committing to a real direction?

🔥 Topics include:

• AKME’s pattern of hesitation & missed chances
• Why the Bulls HAD to be more aggressive in the draft
• Nikola Vučević’s declining value & trade urgency
• Billy Donovan’s role in accelerating change
