so this were u dudes went
At least with jimmy here, you had a guy who openly recruits and could get players here. Our rep is mud right now, and it's all on garpax right now. It was the only shot we had.
What we sound like now, is exactly how all fan bases sound when they trade they franchise player. But there is a reason, in the handful of times a team parted with they franchise player , it nearly never works. We were supposed to hit the home run on a jimmy deal. Now it done got bumped down to just accept the best deal smh.
I been saying that if jimmy goes it would be in a mediocre package. Well we got the mediocre package smh

Hours later, still pissed.
"We were wasting his prime."
Sure, fukkers never really REALLY gave him the keys and built around them.
"We need to get younger, more athletic."
Signs Wade and Rondo. Clearly had it in mind from day one to clear the books and start over, drawing a "kick me" sign and pasting it to Butler's ass
for the 16-17 season. Might fukk around and watch the Timberwolves this year. I was in the car like
Edit: And sold a pick. "Rebuilding" and they selling picks. Last time I was this heated, I was in Summer School and talked my way out of p*ssy.

Yes I know the narrative is that if Rondo was healthy we win the series, but it's not true. Celtics won because they made adjustments to their lineups. This is the same team that beat the Wizards and went to the ECF too. Yall gotta stop with the delusions and pipe dreams.

a legit pg,a 3 shooter, defense & real coaching direction away from ecf
but knowing garpax they was gone do the opposite anywaywasn't gone fire hoiberg
wasn't gone draft or get a legit pg
A white boy who can shoot was their answer to shooting trouble... They got that...Luke kennard was bulls #16 regardless if jimmy trade didnt happened
and traded anyway our defensive piece j bell #38 (which is unrelated to the jimmy trade)
Let I said a week ago bulls fuk'd regardless & fuk'd both ways

no it wouldn't.It only works with lebron cuz lebron runs their offense just like an elite pg.Their roles are reversed on the cavs.Kyrie and jimmy woulda been exchanging iso's just like rose and jimmy did.You need a passing pg with jimmy like rubio,rondo,cp3,tyler ulisTrading that 2nd round pick was dumb,cuz I don't think they have any 2nd rounders til like 2020.Plus with the D league/ 2 way contracts bell coulda developed down there.Nobody wants to lose jimmy but this had to happen, if the bulls suck next year and get bamba,ayton,porter or that euro cat or another high upside player you won't be complaining.
Id rather tank and build through the draft then think Jimmy would recruit enough talent here to compete for a title during the Warriors reign
It makes no sense to try and compete right now. We actually are lightyears behind the Warriors right now
Listening to the press conference its good to hear they are embracing the tank. If we get a top 2 pick next season there is absolutely no way you can say this wasnt the right move
If Michael Porter/Doncic are legit and we were to get one of them we suddenly have a core of
Dunn
Lavine
Porter JR/Doncic
Bobby
Markkanen
what if that big Bamba is legit too?
rebuilding/tanking/Draft >>> pipe dream FA dreams

so this were u dudes went
You have a huge chance of lebron taking off west next off season, and you had a top 3 player in the conference on your squad. Yes your supposed to care about winning. So you surround him with talent, land his running mate etc. East is about to be wide open. All of these things have to factor into the direction your going. True no guarantees in either way your going, but you have to admit that if your rebuilding you better have great assets and ability to properly build a team with good coaching to come out of that inevitable dark age. It's very easy to be very bad for very long in this league. Right now I'm supposed to be happy we got a great deal, not hoping dunn is not a bust, hoping lavine can recover from a acl and hoping lauri is not a repeat of mcdermott and niko. If the objective slumped all the way down to just "move jimmy to become terrible" I can think of about 15 other young prospects we could have used jimmy to trade for who were NOT coming off a acl.
fukk Bulls management.
I fukk wit' the Bulls fanbase tho

Once you land that "legit star" you will have to build with them via free agency via trades. It's no such thing as building a contender strictly through the draft.
Now if you want to argue we need a new core, or jimmy wasn't good enough to lead a title team cool, but this idea that you can just stink for 5 years and come out of that with a title contending team is just wrong and you don't have 1 situation to use as an example to prove it. All title contending teams had to hit free agency and make smart trades. Right now you all seem to just like the taste of hope. Right now, even if we land a franchise guy we will still have a front office that fail to build around them, just like they failed to build around rose, just like they failed to build around jimmy. Then I guess we can blow it up again at that time too smh
