Hosts Jordan Maly and Matt Peck provide you with a daily dose of Chicago Bulls news and stories. We are Locked On Bulls. Join the conversation by leaving texts and voicemails at (331)-979-1369.

Locked On Bulls kicks off the show answering some text messages and voicemails from the weekend, the guys start with a voicemail about Nikola Mirotic and his impact on the Bulls success in the month of December. Can Jabari Parker fill the role Mirotic played last season, and was Mirotic really the sole reason for that run or did other core pieces contribute?

Locked On Bulls answers a question about why injury concern hasn't been talked about nearly enough. Between nagging injuries to players recovering from major surgery, what happens if this team is injury plagued? Are there any players to keep an eye on early on and maybe Vegas odds makers are taking into account injury.

Final voicemail of the day is discussing Taj Gibson, his impact with the Bulls, why he wasn't talked about enough, and who could be the next "Taj" on this Bulls team. Jordan and Matt take a look at Bobby Portis' season last year and compare it to Taj Gibson best season of his career. All of this and so much more on Locked On Bulls.
