ITS OVER: 2015-16 Chicago Bulls Season Thread

[HNIC973]

I totally agree with your displeasure with the Bulls FO, because of their inability to make the necessary improvements to beat Lebron last season. What beats a Lebron lead team is depth at the wing position and at least one rim protector. Mavs (Marion, D. Stevenson, Brewer, Kidd, & Chandelier), San Antonio (Kahwi, D. Green,M. Ginobili, B. Diaw, & T. Duncan), G. State( Iguodala, H. Barnes, D. Green, K. Thompson, Bogut, & Ezelil). People don't understand we only have Butler on the perimeter to defend Lebron, so he will not be able to get into proper rhythm to get his offense going because he has to expend his energy on defense. The next problem is none of the other wing players can stick to their man on defense, so that puts more pressure on Butler when Dunleavy, Snell, and McDermott can't stick to their assignment. Iman and Jr. Smith went off on either Dunleavy or Snell consistently in that second round. Next are bigs were not able to stop them from owning the paint and glass. Noah and Taj got hoed by Tristan and Mosgov for that whole series. Noah is are rim protector but was hobbled by the off-season surgery he had, which made him look like a shell of himself. Taj had the ankle problems, but was still embarrassed by Tristan Thompson. I'm pissed at the front office because they saw these issues, and decided to stay pat and not address them. Rose is my favorite player but it is unrealistic to put faith in him with his injury history and he is not going to fix these glaring issues I just mentioned. Imagine if we had an Aaron Afflalo, Nicolas Batum, or Wilson Chandlier to take some pressure of Butler at the wing position. I'm pissed at Noah for talking sh#t before the series and then wetting the bed when it was go time, so the FO may have to address those issues early if they see no progression from our front court guys early. The bottom line is these problems have to be addressed if he we want to have a true shot at going to finals. If these issues are not addressed by the deadline, then you all will know what kind of FO we have. All they care about now is making profit!

absolute truth repped front office is a joke

Last year was the first playoffs since 2011 we even had a realistic chance to beat Bron

I mean what dream world is everyone living in that we forget we didnt have Rose in the playoffs in 2012, 2013, 2014 ?

We have assets to absorb those deals. If you are not willing to spend some money in this league, then you are not committed to winning. Those players are not difficult to obtain. We might have to get rid of some current guys here, but aren't you tired of the same o same o? I wanna see what these team can do with wings that can score here or their and defend their assignments consistently.

Nothing has mattered since the ACL injury in 2012. Ya'll make it seem like our front office held us back from winning a title since then

I know! But they had footage on what others teams did to beat Lebron during that lay over. Having on Jimmy Butler out there to defend him with Dunleavy starting and two unproven wings in Snell and McDermott was a recipe for disaster. Even I saw this disaster play out in my head before last season started. You are letting the FO off the hook.

Deals were there to improve the team on the wings, but they did nothing.

I give them plenty of blame too, I just find it funny the people here who act like the front office has solely held us back from winning a title

Ya'll deserve to have Billy King run your team for 5 seasons

I don't know breh I'm just sick of losing to that nikka he owns us like Mike owned the Knicks

Noah goes from DPOY, 4th in MVP voting to hardly backup status over the course of 1 summer but we blame our failures on the front office for not acquiring an Arron Afflalo type, who by the way was a COMPLETE failure in Portland

to be fair he did get hurt which we understand all to well

breh I hate it too, but we have one of the best rosters in the league

for all the mishaps by the front office, there has been plenty of good here too

straight up, the DRose injury saga has held us back something serious. Theres nobody to blame for that, its just a straight up reality

Lesser franchises would have found themselves as basement dwellers with all the shyt our former MVP, max player went through
