The Chicago Bulls Thread - Feat best 3 guard rotation of ALL TIME

[ROSEMVP]

Seems some other teams have Threads so why not the Bulls i say. Mods can delete if there is already a bulls thread.

We've got one somewhere, but it was from a while back. Strong OP post, love Thib's reaction in that one.

Pretty sure that is from a game in Miami when we won. Might have been the Crygate game.

Bad day to start this thread, would run them all down after the s**t they dished up today.

 

[Lion for Life]

Why doesn't anyone post in this thread? I mean it is the Bulls after all
Great win today, loved the bellineli gamewinner.
It'll be interesting to see where we're at closer to the playoffs with the possible return of d-rose

 

[kane249]

Not sure there will be enough time to get Rose anywhere near his best this season

 

[Lion for Life]

Yeah, agree. If he does return (and that is an IF) i think he'll play limited time off the bench. Still, i like the way we've been tracking in his absence, carlos boozer has stepped up big time, if we keep to this standard how far can we go?

 

[kane249]

No matter how good we go I don't think we've got the firepower to get past the Heat without a fit and in form Rose

Flicked on the basketball today n saw the Bulls were playing. Shattered not to see Pippen, Jordan and Kerr. I miss my Mega drive

I'd advise you not to watch today then... no Lou

 

[ROSEMVP]

DRose only needs to play 20 mins a night imo off the bench as 6th man.

 

[Matera92]

Loving Butlers development at the moment. Really has taken a big step forward in Dengs absence.

 

[RoosterLad]

Another magnificent performance by Butler.

Steve Kerr? Really?

 

[BlueBen]

So proud of the way this team is going.

To think that we could win in Atlanta by 17 points on the second night of a back-to-back without Hinrich, Boozer and Noah (and obviously Rose) is incredible. Taj comes in and gets 19 and 19, Deng 25 and 14 and Butler continues his rapid development

I'd almost prefer Rose to not come back this year. Make sure he is without a doubt 100% fit for 2013/14.

Any word on when/if Mirotic will come over? Last I read he was dominating in the Euroleague.

Wouldn't make any difference, when he's cleared to play he'll be 100% fit and extra rest won't make him healthier.

2015 I think is the earliest we will see Nikola, really want to see what he can bring to the Bulls.

 

[cAsEy_18]

We're only just past the half-way point of the year, games played wise. If Rose can get back any time soon (eg) After another let's say 10 games, and have 30 games leading into the playoffs, I don't see why we wouldn't still be having a crack at it this year. No-one is expecting a 100% Rose to come back, but we still hold, as we always did, a massive advantage over the team to beat Miami, being our size. Given that defensively we match up as well as anyone can against them, fully fit we're a show.

As for Mirotic, no chance next season, I think the one after is the hope, which would be 2014/15 and also leading into Boozer's final season - a perfect amnesty option. Or perhaps even a valuable expiring contract if it gets to that stage.

 

[ROSEMVP]

When Rose Returns if He does this year we need to start with this lineup imo

Rose
Butler
Deng
Gibson
Noah

with
Hinrich
Marco
Rip
Boozer

all coming off the bench.

For better or worse it won't happen. Only way Boozer isn't in the five is if we somehow trade him IMO.

 

[hayes]

Forget the old thread this one is gold. Love the Boozer gif.

 

[kane249]

Getting closer....

 

[BlueBen]

Noah just had 23 points, 21 rebounds, 11 blocks and 3 steals!

 

[ROSEMVP]

Best Center in the League with Dwight imo

 

[RoosterLad]

Tied a franchise record for most blocks and it was the first Bull to get a triple double with blocks since 1977 I think, possibly the same game when Artis Gilmore had his 11 blocks.
