no he doesn't. especially in the playoffs. that was a one game aberration. last year, they put battier on boozer in the playoffs and he got served.

neither NY team can tank cuz they mortgaged all their future assets and really don't have any young talent. plus they are capped out for the foreseeable future.
LA is not gonna tank cuz the majority of their key players are
as hell. plus there's no need for them to tank when they almost $25M available in cap space next summer and can get a big free agent to improve quickly.
Some of your options include trading Rose for Irving(after one of your main criticism of Rose is he doesn't pass the ball nonetheless), sign FA (because it worked so well for Tmac, Hill, 2010, etc) instead of drafting(where we picked up guys like Butler and Snell for example), resigning Deng to 14 mil(because he will get paid this offseason. A desperate team in need of wings like the lakers will pay him), reinsdorf pay taxes on Deng and an unproven euro rookie in addition to amnestying Boozer which you know he will not do

so this were u dudes went
Plus Kobe is actually coming back this seasonneither NY team can tank cuz they mortgaged all their future assets and really don't have any young talent. plus they are capped out for the foreseeable future.

Plus melo is actually playing or the Knicks
Plus Brooklyn got pierce Garnett to pair with d will Lopez and joe Johnson
So basically all of them would look mentally retarded talking about tanking
But in that idiots eyes deng is on Kobe melo dwill and Lopez level
And we should trade rose to surround deng with pieces
what a loser

I'm confused as to what @7oclock doesn't get.
every bulls fan in this thread knows why we should tank
cats on realgm agree we should tank
both sports radio stations think we should tank.
the reason being is cuz we ALL know that the bulls cannot win a ship with its current roster. hell this year's team is weaker than last year's team, and they exceeded expectations cuz of the expectation rose would be back to
them in the playoffs. If we know we can't do shyt this season given this roster, then the best option is to trade all assets, tank in a loaded draft for a potential star player, and hope mirotic comes over and we can sign a decent free agent.
yet you are the ONLY cat that advocates trying to win this year.

I'm not talking about this year, i'm talking about the last 20 years - you never hear LA or NY talking about tanking for draft picks...at least I never have. Even when they sucked or were mediocre
Did they trade of Patrick Ewing when they couldn't beat the bulls? Nope, they kept on losing to the Bulls year after year and bless their losing souls, they never gave up hope and they finally made it to the championhip only to be helplessly swept right out that mafukka.

lol@quoting realgm and am/fm talk shows - yeah those people are smart.
and of course you're embellishing, most of realgm don't want to tank - there was a poll somewhere and 55-60% respondants wanted us to keep Deng. This tank talk is stupid, isn't logical, and not necessary. It's sheep mentality , you hear something and you just run with it. You have no way of knowing if tanking will get us to a championship, you're crossing your fingers and hoping destiny is on our side.
Rather on doing what's logical operationally, which is keeping the core that you already built and committed to and have equity in and building around it. LIke I've pointed out tehre are several scenarios where you keep the core, don't tank, and improve next year - if you believe Mirotic is Dirk v2 - you can amnesty Boozer, bring across Mirotic. Add a couple of low costs FA - and you have a team taht competes with Pacer/Miami next year.
there' several options, I put up a scenario that is unlikely (re trading Rose) which I think would be a smart thing to do, but isn't likely to happen. That's my opinion, don't confuse that to the realistic options regarding Deng, Mirotic, Boozer which is what the discussion has moved onto.
FYI,
we have a winning regular season (when fully healthy) against the Heat -
bonus points to anyone who can guess or record against the Heat in the last 3 years without Rose during the regular season(fully healthy except Rose)

who gives a shyt? how we looking in the playoffs against them?
2-8 FTW
I have no idea why you keep bringing up when we play them in the playoffs - when we have NEVER been healthy for the past 2 years?
LIke what don't you get about that? I keep saying it and yall just ignore it and repeat the same shyt over and over (re: we can't beat them in the playoffs)
no shyt, we didn't have Rose, Deng, and an injured Noah last year
year before that we lost Rose and Noah against the 76ers
year before that was legitimate 1-4 loss; so ut of the 3 playoff years, 2 of them we lost 2-3 of our best players; yet yall keep talking that bullshyt and everytime I explain it, you wait 2 weeks and come back and say the same shyt.
