MexSoxFan#1 Posted May 20, 2023 Share Posted May 20, 2023 (edited) Jimmy Butler straight up turned into MJ for the playoffs...and to think we could've built around him. That's why the Bulls are who they are, if they never lucked into MJ, Bulls would most likely be a team still pursuing their first championship.

Of course no Rodman without the presence of MJ and Scottie. (And now Larsa Pippen dating Jordan's son haha. Drama.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigHurt3515 Posted May 21, 2023 Share Posted May 21, 2023 I love Jimmy Butler, but these playoffs are making me so angry at this point. Why did we give him up? He would have been the next Bulls legend 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted May 22, 2023 Author Share Posted May 22, 2023 I still go back to how much I wanted him on the Bulls all the year(s) ago. Obviously wouldn't have worked out, but he really was a darn good player for a long time. Defense a challenge - but he could score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And he moved to new teams a lot. Just my perception? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But Spoelstra is part of the equation in Miami. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Allen Posted May 27, 2023 Share Posted May 27, 2023 (edited) Scottie Pippen says LeBron is the best of all time and Michael Jordan was a horrible basketball player, yes , horrible is the word he used, before Scottie came along. Pip would have been the greatest Bull ever if it wasn’t for MJ, but he has taken his Last Dance bitterness and MJs son date it his ex wife so far into his head he is saying things so ridiculous he is just setting himself up to be laughed at. It's a shame he's just making a fool of himself now. Edited May 27, 2023 by Dick Allen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 28, 2023 Share Posted May 28, 2023 Celtics on the verge of saving the NBA Finals from a tv ratings standpoint. Didn't think they had it in them down like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyyle23 Posted May 30, 2023 Share Posted May 30, 2023 Boston legit had a chance to use the phrase “don’t let us win one” and make it happen, but lmao well I’m sure silver is extremely upset about ratings now this is just terrible 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted May 30, 2023 Author Share Posted May 30, 2023 Bulls are going to be interesting this offseason - seems like pretty good chance at a minimum a soft reset and maybe more. Would be a good sign if they take those steps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be a good sign if they take those steps. AK tried and failed at the fast rebuild. I think that they would have had a puncher's shot at making a Finals with Lonzo, but would have definitely been a Top 4 team in the East annually with him. The team healthy was just so fun to watch. With Lonzo they played more than the sum of their parts. Without, especially since they had no other point guard, they played much lesser. But thy def need to reset. And AK should only get one shot at a reset - no infinite GarPax / KW-Hahn resets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmags Posted June 13, 2023 Share Posted June 13, 2023 Blogabull pointing out that all of these "how the nuggets were built" do not mention Karnisovas. Amazing how a reinsdorf can so easily find the guy that is just there and liked and won't ruffle feathers or try too hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't mean that he didn't have a role in it, only that there's no percentage in patting someone on the back who's no longer there. I'm not saying he did have a role and he's sure made some odd moves here. At least he "came from a winning organization" which is always one of the automatics in hiring around this board.
