Worlds Above Haters, Chicago. Got a 9 on Me. Call Me Rondo: Celtics vs. Bulls Playoffs Thread

Unless a Playoff Run lures a big name to Chicago, I'm open to dealing Jimmy.

Jimmy balling right now means his stock will be high as shyt. You gotta see what teams are willing to give up for him

I couldn't deal Jimmy. ..that's just me tho. ... the league is kinda scarce with game changers. ... I just couldn't do it.

I said before the series, this not a typical 1/8 match up

If we didn't go through a carousel of role players and fred coached better down the stretch of some games, we could have 53 wins too. If we showed up vs bad teams, or didn't lose big leads we could have 53 wins too. This wasn't some scrappy team fighting and clawing for 41 wins.

Still , kinda surprising to be up 2-0. At best I thought we would get the split.

people saying trade Butler are crazy, you're not gonna find a two-way player to replace Butler and he keeps getting better.

i say add the few pieces, which in reality is SF or SG to compliment Butler and another strong PF/C and have Wade on the bench

also a backup PG -

This.

This.

would you keep Rondo?


i think that's the big question next to trading Butler.

Rondo in Jan was as good as gone, IMO...i never understood the hate but i also dont watch every single game.

Good question. I didn't watch a lot of bulls games either. ..I'd wager that many Bulls fans would say deal him. Just my guess. But he was remarkable tonight.

Yeah cuz GarPax are the safest most incompetent GM's in the NBA.. Act like the Bulls don't need really picks.. These few playoff wins got yall forgettin how horrible GarPax is lol ok

lol, they already made a trade knowing them, when you luck up and get a superstar it seems the Bulls are always trying to show they can "create" another one. Fanbase will show up for any rebuild.

I think they are the same guys who waived JR SMith back in the day...

The cavs definitely avoided the bulls. Wade on his playoff shyt as we expected

both games he's been really good. last game at half, people were saying bench Rondo but i thought he was playing terrific.

Y'all tripping...

Don't let these 2 Playoff Games fool you. You don't pick up Rondo's option, I'm glad he's playing well now cause I'm a Bulls fan, but no... That's money that could go somewhere else.

i got negged by @jaguar paw for remarking this.....i think it's an accurate conspiracy

Biggest thing in this series is the Celtics lack of a true Center and the rebounding

Bulls getting easy looks and run outs on rebounds

what really burns the Celtics is that this draft has tons of bigs but not at the top.

you get rid of Rondo, you still need 2 PGs. Our backups are below average for most of the games I've seen. I like MCW but he can't hit an outside shot.

Rondo can absolutely run a team similar what Duhon use to bring to the table - however , happy to move on if we get an improvement at PG.
