All of these other reasons are just tertiary, LeBron was the reason Bulls lost/Cavs won. He's probably the only player in the league right now where the other team could be better at every other individual position but you'd still favor his team just based off of him.
Playoff Lebron owns the Bulls. :yeshrug:

The teams, the fans, the players, etc....they all know it. Every Bull fan in here knew that when Lebron released that shot that it was going in. :francis:

Even when all the momentum will seem like it's on the Bulls side, reality bends and something happens to where Lebron comes out ahead of them. :mjcry:

Bulls is prepping for the post-Lebron era of the East.

Reasons why Chicago lost this series - LeBron is well down the list (who had his worst series since Boston 2010). Momentum swung back in the Cavs favor ahead of Game 4, when the Bulls didn't have any frontcourt scoring after Gasol went down injured in Game 3.

Game 4: Noah 8 points, Gibson 6 points
Game 5: Noah 10 points, Gibson 10 points
Game 6: Noah 4 points, Gibson 2 points

You add in Rose's inconsistent play, failure to build offensive momentum in all the remaining games, lack of bench production, shytty team defense and passive play from everybody not named Butler - most of which you can attribute to the dwindling rapport between Thibs and the team.

Yea im not going to this "well they have lebron" like he some immovable obstacle that can't be stopping comparable to jordan. Jordan became a mad man who would not be denied , lebron is 2-4 in the finals, he is beatable. Period.

The bulls just don't have the roster to do it. So as I continue to say, look at the talent level and ability of the teams that beat lebron. If your roster is not to that standard, you will not beat him period. It's never rose vs lebron that is stupid. Head to head no player on dallas, spurs , or golden state have any player who can outplay lebron head to head If lebron on his shyt. You just need the talent as a whole to match and Ultimately surpass his production and make it difficult for the cavs and before the heat to defend. Bulls never had that kind of roster with contributors in the way Dallas spurs or golden state had/has. Until we build that kind of roster, we not beating cleveland, period. Rose can avg his mvp avg of 25 and 8 ast. And if jimmy pau, taj brooks dunleavy noah nikola don't have the ability to contribute in a major way in the playoffs we not winning.

Even worse they decide to hype Andre Bynum, who turned out to be a massive disappointment :mindblown:

Why do you keep saying this as if it means something?

The only people that say the Bulls lack of personnel, effort and harmony were tertiary to a player that had one of his worst series in recent memory, on the list of reasons for why they lost are those that aren't paying attention.

Explain how all those reasons were "tertiary". Did you watch any Bulls games throughout the season? Were you aware of the in-house friction?

Casual [ @MJ Truth ] fan - 'It was all LeBron, everything else doesn't really matter - he was the one - it was all him'.

Failing to realize that the Bulls had minimal production from the bench
Failing to realize that all the Cavs role players out-hustled, out-shot and out-performed the Bulls role players
Failing to realize that Noah was broken down and provided minimal offensive production
Failing to realize the Bulls had the advantage before Pau went down injured
Failing to realize the lack of team unity on offense and defense - in combination with the mental diaspora of Thibs/team
Failing to realize the Bulls effort-based identity was a mere footnote
Failing to realize Rose still wasn't playing consistently to his strengths
Failing to realize the Bulls poor 3-pt shooting
Failing to realize the passiveness of 90+% of the squad
Failing to realize that Niko shyt the bed

All this without mentioning the fact that Bron's inefficient command of his team's possessions actually KEPT the Bulls in games.

The Bulls couldn't score outside of Butler and Rose anyone else on offense was pretty trash for most of the series.

And the frontcourt was complete garbage.
