Franchise History
The Early Years
The Chicago Bulls are actually the second NBA team
in Chicago, after the Packers/Zephyrs (now the Washington
Wizards). The team began play for the 1966-67 season,
and immediately posted the best record by an expansion
team in NBA history, qualifying for the playoffs.
Over the next few years, the Bulls assembled the pieces
to be competitive, though they never quite reached
the top. During the 1970s, the Bulls were known as
a tough, defensive-minded team, built around forwards
Jerry Sloan, Bob Love, Chet Walker, point guard Norm
Van Lier, and center Tom Boerwinkle. Nevertheless,
the team only won one division title, and never made
it to the Finals.
