Locked On Bulls kicks off the show talking about a poll Jordan ran last night, which player will have a better NBA career, Zach LaVine or Andrew Wiggins? Jordan explains why he feels in some sense they will always have a connection (whether they like it or not) and surprisingly Zach LaVine himself weighed in on the poll on Twitter. Matt explains the poll might be a bit bias from the combination of Bulls fans and Zach LaVine retweeting it, nonetheless the guys discuss their thoughts. It leads them into a conversation about how fans might be giving LaVine an unfair tag as a "me first" type player. 

The rest of the episode is dedicated to taking voicemails, texts, and tweets in our weekly segment of Bulls mailbag.
