So do we be happy that the bulls team stays GOAT or do we be mad that Lebron won another while we still never saw Rose win once?
Either way, I fucking hate basketball. This is such bullshit.
>>68718509
Don't worry, Rose will get traded and a team built around Jimmy Buckets the God will lead us back to the promised land.
>Bulls cucked either way
Truly what we all deserved
>>68718630
You're retarded. Buckets to the TWolves is pretty much a done deal. You'll get the #5 and Lavine out of it.
>Getting past LeBron or his kids, ever
>>68718683
There's talk of Rose to the Knicks already.
Garpax won't be dumb enough to deal both away.
>>68718509
Bulls front office are morons. they keep Rose's permanently injured ass all these years, but they fire Thibs.
>>68718509
It's OK. Lelbron won't ever 3-peat.
Lebron is a very good player as was proven today. I don't hate him or anything and have utmost respect for him. If anything I blame Thibodeau. He completely doomed our team from 2009-2015 and in that stretch got eliminated by Lebron 5 times a complete embarrassment. Joke of a coach that took too long to get fired and now we're paying the price.
He broke Rose, and then almost every other subsequent starter playing every regular season game like it was game 7. The FO couldn't build the right way either given Thibs crazy demands. And for real, you get 5 chances to beat the same ONE guy and you fail every single chance?
Yeah no. Fuck Thibodeau. He should be as pariah-ed in Chicago sports as Trestman.
>>68718732
Thibs is overrated shit. He couldn't even beat a crippled 2015 cavs team with a mostly healthy bulls team. So there goes all excuses about injuries too. Good riddance to that franchise ruining faggot.
>>68718851
well they didn't even make the playoffs this year, so are they better off?
>>68718902
No because hoiberg is shit too. But just regular shit. Thibs is overrated shit.
Garpax is fucking retarded.
5 chances to face lebron in the playoffs
All 5 failed miserably
>>68718630
This.
>>68718509
Knicks want Rose. Bulls will trade him for a bag of oranges and some tube socks.
>>68718851
>mostly healthy Bulls team
Seriously turned when Gasol got injured. Bulls were basically a shot away from being up 3-1 in that series.
It is a bad bad time to be a Bulls fan. From 2009 the future seemed so bright, why did Rose's knees have to explode?
>>68719137
Remember when D was on the top?
I remember driving around town, seeing all the ads and shit. He was the talk of every barbershop, every lunch table.
God damn, man
>>68718630
Butler is not good enough to build a team around if you want to get past the second round of the playoffs. You can't have your team be dependent on a guy who can't shoot 3s or shoot consistently at all in 2016 unless his name is LeBron James.
>>68719167
I was too young to truly appreciate the 90s so those first few years of DRose were truly some of the happiest times I ever had as fan. It's so sad it all came crashing down so hard.

Fuck.
Why did the Booze cruise fail so spectacularly? And for that matter Noah as well. And if we're going that far, then Deng too.

THE WHITE MAMBA. Holy fuck those were some great years. Scalabrine was the ultimate meme, and they never overplayed him... just enough to solicit a standing ovation when he was played.
I'm fucking depressed... Bulls games used to be an event, always having friends over or going to a bar to watch the game. Now it's briefly brought up in small talk, if ever.
>>68720467
Losing Scal was the beginning of the end.
>>68720510
and Deng
>>68718509
Have fun in New York Derrick
>>68718630
Make it happen
>>68718509
>mfw even Kyrie will go down in history as a better player than Rose now
ahaha faggot
>>68723430
Kek
>>68723430
That's fucked up.
Its a shame what happened to Rose but its time to look for supoorting cast to Butler. The Eastern Conference needs more competition than the Raptors.
>>68718683
Terrible trade. Lavine is basically gerald green 2.0 with a slightly higher potential.
>>68720467
I know this feel so much. Bulls used to be so hype and awesome. Now they're just blew. We became the frailblazers.
>>68723430
Yes yes!
>>68718851
Thibs isnt a player
I swear bulls fags gloating about championships they won twenty years ago are as bad as the steelers fags who gloat about championships from 40 years ago
>>68723750
Can't really gloat about roses knees though
>>68723750
Friendly reminder Big Ben's got two rings
>>68718509
>Rose permainjured
>Noah permainjured
>Our stupid FO trading Aldridge
>Thibs asks them to draft Draymond, they don't listen to him
We could have had a team of:
Rose
Butler
Aldridge
Draymond
Noah
With Thibs' lockdown defense. 5-All Stars, including the MVP and the DPOY. It would have been the best team in the league by a mile.
>>68718509
This year's Warriors still unseat those Bulls as GOAT. You don't have to win the title to be GOAT, just be best ever. Cavs, Warriors, Spurs, and Thunder all would have beaten 95-96 Bulls in a 7 game series on neutral territory. Welcome to the future, faggot.
>>68723430
Brutal
>>68718509

Umm, Big Ben did win owls...
>>68724113
This warriors delusion
>>68724113
lol this is worse than 18-1. no one will remember this warriors team in 5 years
>Rose will never win one for the 'Go
>>68718509
>we still never saw Rose win once
What's so special about Rose? It's not like Ichiro or Dan Marino or someone, where it's an all time great who unfortunately never got the ring. Rose is an autistic nobody and probably literally the worst player to ever win the MVP.
>>68724709
He was young with a lot of speed strength and straight up talent when he began and he started pulling the Bulls out of a dark age where Kirk Hinrich was thier best player.
If only he never got injured and the team built smarter around him back then, here and lebron would have probably been trading ships. But alas injuries are cruel.
2014 Spurs would demolish the '96 bulls
>>68724709
Rose was a fantastic player who was only getting better. He was only 22 when he got that injury.
>>68726904
>>68724765
We were robbed of what could have greatness all because of one knee.
Damn.
>>68724765
>If only he never got injured and the team built smarter around him back then
The Bulls had Aldridge....then traded him. Thibodeau asked GarPax to draft Draymond....and they went with Teague. The medical staff nearly killed Deng, and encouraged Rose to start playing again after minor injuries when he clearly needed rest. The Bulls should still be one of the best teams in the league, but incompetence from the front office, the medical staff, and the ownership ruined all that.
>>68718509
you'll always have the Jordan years
>>68727096
>the Bulls will never trade for Davis
