ITS OVER: 2015-16 Chicago Bulls Season Thread
- Thread starter red222
- Start date
It's time to shut down Jimmy. Majority of the team doesn't care about the playoffs anyway so this shouldn't be a problem. GarPax need to swallow their pride, take that big fat L, and get off whatever high horse they've been riding since the offseason. This roster(save a few) for majority of the season has been playing with lackluster effort and not giving it their all every night. It was evident last season, but luckily Thibodeau was here to cover it up a bit. With a rookie coach whose demeanor is the polar opposite....it shows a lot more.
No playoff revenue for your shytty team Jerry

Didn't that one doctor say he's OK? Wonder what changed.
He said it was structurally sound, so it's probably a cartilage issue
I'm sure he ll get his knee scoped
What's the furthest Iowa State got during Hoiberg's tenure there?
lol if they go to the Final Four or some shyt the 1st year he bounces for the league

Sweet Sixteen
And to think I was about to be part of the problem and make preparations for playoff tickets before this mini-sweep at the hands of the trash ass Knicks 
. As much as I'd like to believe that this entire year was a trial run for Hoiberg in terms of being entirely too lax to a fault in order to breed loyalty towards him for the future, I'm not stupid - it's clear that he isn't built like that, which is the exact reason why he was brought here in the first place (no chance of potentially clashing or ruffling the feathers of the powers that be).
Beyond getting rid of all of the dead weight that's been dragging this team down the past few seasons, this team needs to get a try & true proven player that will also not hesitate to get in the other player's asses when their fukking up.

- Rose by his natural nature is quiet, and likes to lead by example with his play on the court
- Jimmy tried his hand in trying to will himself to be the vocal leader, but he's still getting acclimated to being a star.
- Pau (if he's brought back) is a proven vet in this league, but just look at him - he's not commanding a damn thing.
- Noah (if he's brought back) quite simply may be too washed to be taken serious and Taj isn't good enough to fill that role.
Stinks what's happening to Jimmy's health but deep down everyone should've seen it coming even before the injury actually happened, hell i think a couple of you guys even hinted on it early in the season and it was my own 'de ja vu' concern whenever i caught one of yalls games.
i.e. if Jimmy kept on playin 35-40 mins a night in which he's expoding fearlessly (but recklessly) to the rim every possession into waiting defenders, has to catch at least two ignorantly thrown alley-oops by Gasol per half requiring him to jump over and through multiple defenders with a crash landing every time, plus D'ing up the other team's best player... so basically running on fumes every night.. no way was that not going to end in disaster. He's young but attrition was going to be the end of him, like it was with Rose and Noah (and hence the de ja vu). And now him coming back even tho things may not even be right and surgery pending, also seems like a familiar narrative.
Part of that is Jimmy's own stubbornness in playin the isolation game (taking it on his own) plus other other guys being injured and him wanting to step up, but likely also goes back to the system-less offense

LMAO at the Thibs reminiscing. This team started to suck last year with him. Not defending Fred who is clearly looking like NBA Tressman. But the fact is the problem stems from an imcompetent delusional front office and a flawed, bad roster. No coach is going to make Doug/Portis play D, fix mirotics low IQ, stop Snell from sucking, etc
They also won 50 games though with that same flawed, bad roster
You think Thibs is getting 50 wins playing Doug, Mirotics, and Jrue Holiday Bro major minutes?
How?
Agreed, those clowns need to go.
I hear GMs around the league don't like to negotiate with Gar due to how arrogant he is, that's a no-no.
