The Chicago Bulls Have Done Something They Haven't Done Since They Had Michael Jordan And Scottie Pippen

The Chicago Bulls are 4-0 to start the new NBA season. The additions of Lonzo Ball and DeMar DeRozan this off-season are proving to be huge difference makers.

The Chicago Bulls are off to an incredible to start to the new NBA season. 

At the trading deadline last season they acquired All-Star Nikola Vucevic, and then this past off-season they got former second overall pick Lonzo Ball, and four-time All-Star DeMar DeRozan. 

It's safe to say that adding all these pieces around All-Star shooting guard Zach LaVine is proving to be the right move. 

They are now 4-0 to start the new season after beating the Detroit Pistons (twice), New Orleans Pelicans and the Toronto Raptors (on Monday night). 

Last season, they missed the playoffs and the play-in tournament, because they were 31-41 and the 11th seed in the Eastern Conference. 

Just how impressive is this start for them? 

According to StatMuse, it's the first time the team has started a season 4-0 since 1996. 

Remember who was on the team in 1996? 

Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen. 

The Bulls look they could make a run at one of the top-four seeds in the Eastern Conference with the way they have clicked to start the season.
