Need A Legit 2nd Option? Holla at Us... 2017 Bulls Off-Season Thread

[cornercommission2k12]

Wade is not leaving 24 mill to go get paid crumbs in cleveland. He has 3 rings, he not in desperate need of a ring. He wants his money. Cavs have nothing to trade for wade. Wade is going to be here. Best we can hope is we give him a 3rd year but he signs for cheaper to clear some space.

Bulls don't need to sigh/trade for anymore 30+ past their prime players. They need to surround Jimmy with younger players.

Kevin Love demanded the 1st Pick, Jimmy > Love

That was not your typical circumstance.


As long as you guys are 100% comfortable with keeping Jimmy, you'll be ok

 

[tremonthustler1]

Fred and GarPax are tied at the hip. They pushed Thibs out the door to bring in "their guy". Fred will rightly get a lot of blame but the media is gonna come after GarPax too.

Wade getting 24Mil next year is ridiculous but aint nothing we can do

Nico finally getting the boot. I would wait outside the advocate center for Nico exit interview just to at him.

Hindsight is 20/20 given the replacement, but low key, the bolded doesn't look so bad now

We were a Rondo injury away from the 2nd round

Retool this summer and actually get some Hoi soldiers to run whatever schemes he thinks he has so that way we can either go further than we did this year or Hoibytch can prove every Bull fan right about him being awful so the FO can give him the Camby. It's obvious we're stuck with GarPax so I won't waste time stressing over them BUT I know id rather see playoff pushes over early April fishing trips

Cliff notes: I'd rather be the clippers of the past four years than the Timberwolves of the past fifteen . Everybody wants a championship but there's only one to be had each year so rather than screaming BLOW IT UP every year how bout we play competitive basketball and work with what we have is all I'm saying.

You get it, but at the same time, your expectations are higher because y'all are the Bulls.

Yea that would only happen If a team is in win now mode. That leaves boston or possibly the lakers if they can land a big free agent, then maybe they ship they pick but they seem to want Paul george more.

It's really hard to see a team 2-4 years away from even making the playoffs trading a top 5 pick for a 2 year jimmy rental. Then if jimmy bolts you traded that high pick for nothing. It's really hard to see that happening

Cowley wrote in the sun times the bulls are committed to keeping jimmy

Front office is poised to start damage control with Jimmy Butler

According to a front office source, besides the normal exit interviews that each player goes through at the end of the season, the Bulls have already reached out to Butler to have a separate sit-down with him to not only discuss their plans moving forward, but also to let Butler know that they are 100 percent committed to him.

A limb they have time and time again refused to crawl out onto over the past two seasons.

The source indicated that VP of basketball operations John Paxson would attend, but was unclear if general manager Gar Forman would also be there.

Either way, it might be the most proactive step they’ve taken with Butler since extending his contract two years ago, and would go a long way in bridging a relationship that was headed in the wrong direction.

Jimmy Butler is a great player, but I don't think he's a guy you build your franchise around. And if there is a deal available that nets you some good young players back and a top 5 pick, you take it.

Shows me a deal like that anywhere

Those celtics trades were ass...these guys were left wide open all series because IT gets in the lane at will.

What other team is gonna get you a lottery pick and some quality young players for Butler?!

 

[philmonroe]

What can we get for Jimmy brehs?

Don't know but we need to blow this shyt up. If we not going to build a team to run the O like Fred wants get rid of his ass too and get someone in here that they will build the team around that coaches way of balling. We need change but I don't feel comfortable with Garpax doing it these cats done fukked up enough to me.

 

[philmonroe]

Wrong person yall

Tho he probably is at fault to

Its some of,his fault but being real dudes O don't look like the shyt he ran in college. Don't know if cats not running it or what but like I posted before either get young cats who will buy in or get rid of this dude.

 

[Perfectson]

Yea somethin like this.Doubt they give up saric but somethin like okafor,one of their two '17 lottery picks,'19 kings pick



If niko,mcw,canaan,rondo are gone approximately 30 million in cap space.If wade opts out like 53-54 mil in cap space

When I say star caliber talent I mean like cp3,melo,bg,paul george,hayward those type of players.I don't think they can get any of these dudes which is why they need to accept reality and blow it up.

So get rid of all our pgs?

I know yall think they suck , but damn.

I'd see a out keeping canaan and MCW needs summer work cuz he has the tools. Like to take a 2nd look at him over the summer.

Had enough of green light Niko to Say hoiberg style doesn't work
.get a. College coach with an actual championship rings before we start allowing him to talk about how his offense is.

Big city market and the coach has no pedigree

With bold I agree. He doesn't have the players to run what he wants and I put that on Garpax because if people look up YouTube highlights of how his O was run in college you don't really see that shyt here. Get cats who fit the system or get rid of dude.

shyt Kerr didn't either and look how that turned out. I'm not comparing the rosters but moreso good players who fit the system and also a FO who got players that fit said system. Not these dudes that can't shoot and shyt.

They're not getting rid of dude. If Fred goes, they're out too. Fred was their guy, he was the golden kid that was gonna take us to the finals, the one they've wanted for years.

shyt if they not going to get rid of dude get some good dudes that fit with what he actually is trying to run. Also I'm not mad Thibs got fired cause lets be real dude had our O looking wack as fukk. Cats forget real quick bout that so I see why they went with someone different than Thibs D approach.
