Something about Matas Buzelis’ performance on Wednesday night felt poetic. The franchise welcomed both Zach LaVine and DeMar DeRozan back into the United Center. The two multi-time All-Stars were once seen as pillars of an organization in win-now mode. Yet, their best season came in 2021-22 when they finished 46-36 and lost in a swift five games to the Milwaukee Bucks in the first round. This also happened to be the last time the team started 4-0, which happens to be the Chicago Bulls’ cu...
