2012 Chicago Bulls Off Season Thread

[Brozay]

This team aint going anywhere. fukk. I cant support this team next season if they dont make some major changes. Rose is gonna be wasted brehs.

kc johnson is stuck in this jerry dont want to pay the tax thinking, but im sure jerry understands simple math. he couldnt have thought handing out those contracts like that wouldnt get him in the tax. if jerry that noid he should have let noah walk, not bring in rip etc.

unless or orlando is taking noah/deng for d12 then it makes no sense shipping them out and boozer not being apart of that deal.

so far from kc brewer, korver, cj, deng rip and noah are pretty much gone because management shedding salary.

so we stuck with a team with rose, boozer, taj, asik and scrubs to carry us threw? cause if its all for the purpose of shedding salary he obviously will be moving deng and noah for expirings TPE etc.

kc aint been reliable for a few seasons.

if jerry wants a contender he will have to pay that tax regardless, all the balling on a budget will not fly.

rose for wade and bosh

Bulls fans need to get over the boozer trade dreams, no one in the NBA willing to take on his contract unless they put Derrick rose in the equation

 

[JMurder]

And? Now what? Are teams in the East scared of ya'll when you barely beat a team where Boozer should be the best player? NO one cares about Philly. You know that, right?

I do know that....I don't care about Philly either

Dwight might be a lame but he's a top 5 talent in the NBA. I'm not too concerned about his back issue. He's got a great work ethic and should be back to 100% when the season starts. KC Johnson reporting that Deng and Noah might be traded sounds to me like the organization is having a serious look at trying to help D-Rose in the long run. They're concerned about his long term health and the abuse he takes on a game to game basis, and what better way to alleviate all of that by adding another supertstar player? IMO I believe they'll go hard after Dwight this off season. They didn't try to make a ploy in the regular season because they didn't want to ruin the team chemistry.

bulls organization better be concerned with getting d- help by any means necessary. they still owe him like 5 years and $95M so we know he's gonna be here. everyone else is expendable at the cost of improving.

I only read the post about Rip. I missed the other one.

Looks like tank mode is a possibility.

the bobcats pick is for 2014 unprotected right? if so, and we tank this season, we will have back to back high lottery picks

in 2016

Charlotte Draft Pick received in trade for Tyrus Thomas:

2012 - Top 14 Protected
2013 - Top 12 Protected
2014 - Top 10 Protected
2015 - Top 8 Protected
2016 - Unprotected

Doctor says Chicago Bull's Derrick Rose out 8-12 months after ACL surgery - ESPN Chicago

8-12 months for Rose.

FO needs to tank next season.

Listening to Gar in that press conference he kept mentioning long term. I think there's a decent chance they might tank/trade key players.

 

[5StarElite]

Next move is gettin surgery on that man toe. nikka said he haven't been able to bend it for two years

 

[Brozay]

Rose gonna be out almost all the next season... and even if he comes back for 15 or so games, hes gonna be RUSTY.

Its time to unload our team, tank the next season and start over. We got Mirotic and the Bobcat pick in the pipeline... We got the MVP. Its time to look long term... this shyt aint working for me.

 

[William Bassington]

yall need to figure out a way to 1) get young talent from the draft and 2) look at free agents, and sign them pretending DRose aint on the roster...

Louis Williams will be available...Eric Gordon, OJ Mayo, Batum, Beasely, etc...try to get one of these guys...

as far as getting young talent in the draft...the Bulls would have to be willing to part with their 1st rounder along with either Noah or Deng in order to get into the lottery...a team like the Blazers would be interested in Luol Deng, and they have 2 lottery picks...Bulls are gonna need scoring from the peremiter badly with Rose gon, so with a lottery pick they would be smart to look at guys like Austin Rivers, Jeremy Lamb, maybe even Damian Lillirad as a combo gurard...

 

[jerniebert]

Well this sucks. I don't want them to tank though. That didn't work out the last time they tried it. We may not be a championship team without Rose but we can at least be competitive. fukk giving up. Ive seen to many sorry Bulls teams. Winning is nice no matter how ugly it looks.
