I like how the phrase "the core" has made its way into the narrative of this team
ITS OVER: 2015-16 Chicago Bulls Season Thread
- Thread starter red222
- Start date
I waffle between the two.I feel like I'm the only one that wants the playoffs
I want Skal Labissiere in the draft, I think we'll need to be in the lottery for that...
This team is so frustrating... if it aint injuries...it's inconsistent or uninspired play....
I would imagine we'd play like we care in the playoffs...but now we're not 100%, so I'm like 30% make the playoffs...and 70% stop teasing the fanbase...
Low key, I don't want them to get that playoff revenue, since thats the only reason we didn't trade Pau

As UK fan I agree Skal needs a ton of work.Right now only thing he's effective is pick&pop situations.He's at least a year away imoSkal?
Skal?
Yeah man, he's tall and athletic, mobile, can develop to hitting that Pau jumper. I just see a lot of potential in him.
There is no other big in the draft that would fit this hoiball bullshyt..

so this were u dudes went
I'm not lowering my standards to root for some 8th seed shyt, not when the expectations was top 3 in th e east and having a better offense to compete with the cavs with. They failed on finding us a qualified coach and then compounded that misstep by not doing anything to bolster the roster outside slipping and falling and finding holiday who I'm sure they had no idea he would contribute. They don't get rewarded playoff revenue for their incompetence.I feel like I'm the only one that wants the playoffs
Part of me wants to see rose torture kyrie for a series and a better jimmy get it in.
But the truth is most of these other clowns will disappear and can't hit a shot, and with a worst defense the shyt would be over in 5 games if we don't get swept which is not out of the possibility.
But at this point since gar forman detachable face looking ass is obviously still going to be here, hoping they can make good on a lottery pick is something I can't hope for either, because instead of using the pick to deal for a quality piece for the "core" they will just draft some other guy who needs 3 years development and act like they just did big things out here.
How do you not trade pau........you know what .....jersey! !
I know breh, I generally agree with your sentiments
but we were 27-20 when Jimmy went down. That's a 56% win percentage which had us on a 47 win trajectory which would put us right into that 3-6 glut of Atlanta, Miami, Charlotte, Boston
That injury just fukked our season, along with poor coaching
I dunno, I'd rather let Rose, Jimmy and the young dudes get playoff reps than move up a few spots in the draft personally
Outside Cleveland, none of those East teams are particularly scary and even the Cavs have shown signs of problems
Thing is, now you have Rose & Taj banged up. So I'm getting a bit less excited about playoffs, if they can't play
I get everyone's side of it, but fukk it, I want playoff basketball
At this point, if they get in, that means they did something to earn it and I'd like to ride that wave into a series

Those are our main competitors this roster isn't winning shyt the exact same team lost in 2ND round last year with a much better coachDUDES SILLY....
DONT WANNA MAKE THE PLAYOFFS
BUT WASTE THEIR TIME
WATCHING EVERY GAME
AND POSTING ABOUT IT.
HOW MANY ROSTERS IN THE TOP 8 ARE ACTUALLY BETTER THAN OURS?
MIAMI WITH JOE ADDITION,
CLE BECAUSE OF BRON GETS THE BEST OUT OF AVERAGE PLAYERS...
WHO ELSE?
LETS BE REAL...
ROSTER ISSUES ARE NOT THE REASON WE'RE IN 9TH PLACE.
THE COACHING HIRE IS.

so this were u dudes went
yea same here, i get the other side of it. im a bit less sure about our chances tho, imo we have no shot vs cleveland, i want no parts of atlanta, and charlotte scares me. we in that position where all it takes is some young up and coming team to take us out back and put us down.
i do like our chances of course vs toronto, miami and boston tho.
i will be there to root if we get in
but i just cant root for a fight to get in the playoffs. i understand injury, but imo this is mainly on fred and his beautiful day in the neighborhood approach to the team and garpax failing to implement a quality offense, and also the standing pat to a mediocre roster. so this was preventable.

so this were u dudes went
if we had role players who could have stepped upThey should won have that damn series
I was at game 4
and if thibs would have stopped going to kirk and noah line ups, we might have pulled it off.
i wish i could rely on niko, mcdermott and taj to step up but i just cant and expect them to all disappear along with brooks and i dont expect much out of pau either.
i expect rose to have a few great games, jimmy to have a couple and not much after that. wont be enough.

I was wit it for the first round Toronto series but that's out the window so I'd rather take my chances wit the lottery. We barely missed the offs in 07, lucked up and got rose.
I got no faith they seeing any of these teams other than Toronto in the offs. They already sometiming, now everybody hurt.
fukk the playoffs. I'd take another 2 percent chance at a top 3 pick

This ain't what you want and this ain't the year for it.
I'd lan towards Zimmerman if he's available. I don't think y'all are gonna clean house yet though, so we'll see.
