The undefeated, young Bulls bring Chicago back to life

This Saturday morning, there are only three undefeated teams left in the NBA: ThunderTHE Spurs and the Bulls.

If Oklahoma City doesn’t surprise anyone, despite the notable absences, on the other hand, no one expected San Antonio and Chicago to have this kind of celebration. With five wins in a rowVictor Wembanyama’s teammates set a franchise record, while Josh Giddy and his teammates bring back fond memories as we have to go back to 1996 to find a trace of such a start to the season.

“We feel good collectively at this stage, but there is still a long way to go”, temperament Josh Giddeithe author of his best game of his career against the Knicks. “Every night, different players step up and make big plays. We have a lot of guys — six or seven players who average more than ten points. That speaks volumes about the depth of our team and the collective impact we have.”

Through the first five games, Josh Giddy averaged 22 points, 8 assists and 8.8 rebounds on 48% shooting (including 45% from 3-point range). Extended on a wireThe Australian personifies this uninhibited team with a spectacular game.

A group having fun together

“That’s where they want me”Josh Giddei. “I like to have the trust of my teammates and coaches, who trust me to go out on the field and create plays. That’s what every player needs: when you feel the trust of everyone around you, it pushes you in the right direction. So I feel good, and we feel good collectively. We all love each other, we love playing with each other. And when you enjoy the people you work with and enjoy it every day much more.”

Chicago is using this early season to knock off the big guns, like New York, Orlando, Atlanta and Detroit… Maybe it’s the right time to face playoff contenders still in training, but Billy Donovan assures there’s a real collective desire to go far, not just kick around.

“Their faith is something very, very powerful. When there’s faith, it’s really strong… There’s a real connection between them. They have a good relationship. They can all talk to each other. There’s a lot of positives in this group, essential elements to win.”

But like Josh Giddy, the Chicago coach keeps his feet on the ground. “It’s still very early… It’s only five games and I’m happy with the start we’ve started, but here it is, it’s only five games. There’s still a long way to go and we mustn’t lose sight of that.” so concludes the Australian.
