Chicago Bulls History
Founded in 1966, the Chicago Bulls are known for having one of the NBA's greatest dynasties. During their first season, from 1966-67, they posted a 33-48 record, which was the best by an expansion team in NBA history. They qualified for the playoffs and were the only NBA team to do so in their first season. Between 1991 and 1998, the Chicago Bulls won six NBA championships, with two of them being three-peats. Leading the six championship teams were Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Famers Michael Jordan, Scottie Pippen and coach Phil Jackson. Additionally, the multiple championship-winning Bulls have never lost an NBA Finals series in their history -- the only NBA franchise to do so. During the 1995-96 season, the Bulls became the first NBA team to win 70 games or more when they won a total of 72 games, which set an NBA record that remained until the 2015-16 season when the Golden State Warriors won 73 games. The Bulls made waves again in the 2010-11 and 2011-12 seasons, which culminated in back-to-back seasons above .732 led by Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah -- both of whom have won the NBA Most Valuable Player Award while playing for the Bulls. Off the court, the Bulls are also active in giving back to their community.
