Chicago Bulls refuse to tank, so what’s their best path forward? | CHGO Bulls Podcast

The CHGO Bulls crew discuss the ideal path forward for the Chicago Bulls, knowing that the team’s VP Arturas Karnisovas has zero interest in tanking or trading for draft picks. Chicago Sun-Times beat reporter Joe Cowley wrote over the weekend about AK’s insistence on trying to build through the middle, and the complications that presents. Peck, Big Dave and Will Gottlieb try to establish what a path back to legitimate contention without tanking would look like. Would trades be involved? What about the team’s cap space in both 2026 and 2027? And how much can the team bank on internal improvement? The guys also react to zero Bulls players making HoopsHype’s Top 26 Small Forwards list for the 2025-26 season.
