In an expected development year, the Chicago Bulls have experienced a fair share of ups and downs. Let’s look at the defining moments of the 2018-19 season.

Two years ago, the Chicago Bulls finally pulled the trigger and committed to a rebuild. For a franchise that had previously made the playoffs in 11 of the last 13 seasons, this was a crushing blow. How could a team that went 590-460 in that thirteen-year stretch ever become accustomed to losing?

Alas, with all that success, the team never earned a trip to the NBA Finals. It was time to adapt to modern basketball and rebuild through the process former 76ers General Manager Sam Hinkie revolutionized: tanking.
