Thanks to Michael Jordan and his many exploits, the Bulls have become one of the most popular franchises in the world, and millions of fans are eagerly awaiting a new title… The problem is that for the past few years, Chicago has been hit by a terrible curse that prevents the team from finding the heights.
Chicago is one of the most emblematic franchises in the NBA, thanks in particular to the golden age known in the 90′s. The city is also a huge market, the jerseys are iconic, so clearly, the league must dream of seeing the Bulls return to the top. Unfortunately, this iconic institution is going to have a hard time, since it seems affected by a huge curse.

Since the departure of Michael Jordan and the last title in 1998, the Bulls are affected by a terrible curse at the point guard level. Indeed, as soon as the leaders recruit a star for the position, terrible injuries come to destroy the balance of the franchise and the title hopes… It all started with Jay Williams, n°2 of the 2002 Draft, whose promising career only lasted a year because of a motorcycle accident.
A decade later, it was Derrick Rose, the bearer of all Chicago hopes, who saw his career go up in smoke due to various injuries. When he fell the first time, it was a golden generation that had to give up on its ambitions. And today, it is Lonzo Ball who is heading towards an early end, he who is affected by a pain unknown to doctors. For fans, there can be only one explanation for this phenomenon:
A deal with satan for the 90s was made, the time to collect is here https://t.co/vTn24znlv9

They made a deal with the devil for the 90s, now they just pay their debts
Yeah that position got some juju on it every time Bulls try to out a star there

This position is touched by black magic. There’s a problem every time the Bulls try a star lead.
To win NBA titles, it is better to have an excellent playmaker… The problem at Chicago is that every time there is an All-Star level, he is affected by one or more serious injuries, which derail a promising career.
