Remember when D Wade said the Bulls were not loyal?

:laff: I don't think y'all remember this nikka Rose played 39 percent of his games. Going around running trains with crazy medieval machinery. They gave that man like 3 years of max money to get healthy. They should have called him though. At least wait until he or someone in his camp answers.

That's all there is to it. Professional courtesy shouldn't be a rare thing to come by.

Look how they treated Phil Jackson too

Yep and that was one of the reasons for the icy relationship between Phil and management. Phil was on a bunch of one year deals that last three peat. They even asked Phil to take a pay cut. Same as Buss asked Phil to take a pay cut in LA (can't remember if that was his last championship season with the Lakers or not).

What was the quote again that crumbs gave, which the owner backed? I think it went along the lines of "I don't care if it's 82-0. After this season, you're fukking gone"

Yeah it was something crazy like that.....but I can't remember. Krause also said some shyt like players don't win championships....teams do.

Krause made it seem like getting another MJ, Pip and Phil was easy as fukk.

Pippen, Horace Grant, Kukoc all employed by Bulls right now

You can say what you want about the Bulls, but they have always kept former players in the mix
Hoiberg ... Randy Brown ... Cartwright ... BJ Armstrong
Bulls hire alot of former plays it seems like
Pete Myers, Will Perdue, Norm Van Lier, Johnny Red Kerr, Kendall Gill, Bill Wennington.

Of course they ain't loyal. Look how the organization treated MJ when he was running around trying to be a part owner of a team. Reinsdorf could have given him a 5% of the team just like what Buss gave magic.
From what I remember, MJ wanted the whole team, not some small percentage like Magic got.
They have recently homie. Reinsdorf has tried to clean up the teams image over the years. But a lot of folks in the late 90s and early 2000s were saying they weren't loyal.
We had former players working for the team in the 90s though:stopitslime:

And were we supposed to sign Rose to a large deal just to show loyalty?

Not sure why people always bring up that Wade quote like the Heat/Bulls weren't trying to recruit free agents.
