Bulls Playoffs Tickets

The Chicago Bulls are well known for their postseason exploits in the NBA, with their finest hour coming in the 1990s courtesy of a certain player by the name of Michael Jordan.

The Bulls' success doesn't just revolve around this era, and the United Center franchise certainly has a great deal to shout about in terms of their NBA exploits.

NBA Bow

The Chicago Bulls made their NBA bow in 1966-67, and they reached the playoffs in their first season in the league, losing to the St. Louis Hawks in three games during the Division Semifinals.

The following season they lost to the Los Angeles Lakers in the same round.

The team won its first-ever NBA playoffs clash in 1973-74 when they followed up a 54-28 season by beating the Detroit Pistons in a seven games series before losing to the Milwaukee Bucks in the Conference Finals in a four-game blowout.

1974-75 saw the Bulls win their first-ever Midwest Divisional crown.

Unstoppable

1990-91 saw the rise of a legend with Michael Jordan putting in an MVP display to help the Bulls, in Phil Jackson's second season in charge, to win their first-ever NBA Championship when they defeated the Lakers in five games.

They subsequently won the 1991-92 and 1992-93 NBA Championships against the Portland Trail Blazers and the Phoenix Suns.

Two seasons of relative failure, which still resulted in Conference Semifinal losses to the New York Knicks and the Orlando Magic, followed before the Chicago Bulls once again hit heady heights.

The Last Dance

They won three more NBA Championships between 1996 and 1998, clinching the Central Division and Eastern Conference titles in the process, before beating the Seattle SuperSonics and the Utah Jazz twice, with all three finishing game six.

In 1995-96 the Bulls became the first team to win 70 regular season games, and the team of this era is rightly considered one of the best ever in the history of basketball in the US.

When Jordan and Jackson left, the Bulls sunk, and for six seasons, they performed woefully, but under new head coach Scott Skiles the team showed signs of improvement, making it to three successive playoff finishes, losing to the Washington Wizards, the Miami Heat and the Detroit Pistons.

Tom Thibodeau enjoyed a similar run of success over the course of a five-season run that saw the team healthy finish the regular season before limping out of the playoffs. They did reach the Eastern Conference finals in 2010-11, losing to the Heat in five games.

Under current coach Billy Donovan, there are signs of a potential return to form.

Magic Mike

Clearly, the era of dominance during Michael Jordan's pomp is legendary. They clinched six championships, and the Bulls game was at its peak. Interest in Chicago Bulls games at this point was astronomical and worldwide.
