Bullshyt: The Official 2016 Chicago Bulls Offseason Thread

[@OffHalsted]

i thought i was in some weird dream but this shyt is forreal

traded an mvp for a bag of shyt because you "think" he might do what every single NBA player does and that's test free agency

yeah shyt is surreal... shyt fuk'd me up so bad, I started reminiscing on my 2010 - 2011 life....Break out that Rose Jersey & my High School yr book

Lets be real, DROSE was leaving this shythole team regardless next summer

That's fine, you can't fault a free agent for leaving.

But to trade him, (in a contract year mind you) for the players we got in return is That's what i can't fathom. Let him ball out on a contract year and see where we can get to instead of pulling the plug or atleast ASB

this deal wouldnt have been available at the ASB, cause a team like the Knicks wouldnt be in contention

and if you waited until the season to trade him, what if he got hurt again?

it sounds like both sides didnt want to sign a contract next summer, so if thats the case then its probably wisest to just move on now then play charades for another season

it hurts me too, but Derrick is prob better off, Im actually happy they sent him to a city like NY and he can play with Melo/Zingis

 

[Brozay]

and whos to say right now that Grant wont be a solid starter in this league? Until we see how he turns out, can't say we got absolute crap back

I honestly expected them to salary dump him if they traded him for like a bad contract and a 2nd round pick (thats what people were saying his value was)

 

[kevthesureshot]

I'm surprised cowley ain't have an article full of dirt ready this morning. You know it's coming. Jimmy posted something nice on IG. I'm on my phone right now, with no idea how to link it lol.

That ticket When we host them I wouldnt mind being in the building for that.

Also lopez is a solid pick up too not garbage

 

[cellsius]

I'd rather have just let him leave in free agency. The lopez contract is a killer. He's making $14 mil for the next 3 years. Hes not garbage, but he sure as hell aint worth that. U could've probably gotten biyambo for not much more than that and you'd be good. Or even mahinmi for less. I don't know what they're doing and I don't think they do either. If they draft another non black (no racist) then I might be done with these chumps

that Lopez contract is a pretty solid contract in the new CBA breh, if they wanted to move it, they could easily get a team to take him

wait til you see what big men get paid this summer

 

[GSR]

No words. Inexcusable. Not watching his year. To hell with Jimmy Gar and Pax.

This. Mutherfukk the bulls. im
done.

 

[El Jefe]

Anyone sayin he was leavin regardless what happened this komin season is merely speculating at this point ...no shade @Brozay

I'm sorry buy if rose balled out .. The bulls were winning x contendin again, And the jimmy x rose dynamic worked out ..I'm sure everyone would have found a way to co exist or make it work

Maybe derrick walks ,but this team isnt in a better position with these parts they trade for now ..(then if he walked in the off season )

The bulls could have retooled with similar parts( that they got from this trade _) specially with the.loss of.derrick and his contract

@ least we would have seen what derrick.looked like with a healthy off season

And seen if rose and jimmy could co exist after more time in Fred's system

This is more about the FO findin a fall guy For there decision to fire thibs ..the debacle of last season and makin sure they don't look bad':if '_ they didn't want to resign derrick next off season

This has nothing to do with makin this team younger ..more athletic ..or more suitable to Fred's system

Coz none of the people they traded for help in that regard or fit that line they trying to sell us

Can someone point out the light at the end of the tunnel here

I'm trying to move on

I'm fearing seeing rose melo and zingas in the ecf and us fighting for a 8th seed

I'm fearing rose and melo sending us home in the 1st rd as them the 2nd seed and us the 7th.

We get no good draft pick that is franchise caliber and we adding more mcdermott, snell caliber players

Just making 1st rd playoff revenue so jerry can stay in the black

And to top that all off, no marquee free agent will want to join this franchise based on our track record of failing to add quality to the roster and how we treat players and coaches who did good here.

Someone, tell me how this can be turned around, I'm trying to move forward.

 

[Brozay]

Its not about Derrick wanting to leave (Im sure he did, why wouldnt he?)

I dont think the the Bulls would feel comfortable giving him another long term deal even if he played well

Look, it sucks, but I dont think either party wanted to be with each other past next summer

 

[Tenchi Ryu]

Ain't this some shyt...

NY looking at Melo, Rose, Affalo and potentially Howard...

The exact team I wanted in 2013-2015, they about to have

this is why trading Jimmy and doing complete rebuild might make most sense
