The Chicago Bulls Are A DISASTER...

Just got done watching Kenny’s rant on the trade deadline

[itstheflaminturtle]

trust me, as a bulls fan, watching no trades for 3 years is fucking mind boggling. it’s embarrassing to see this 6 ring franchise act like it’s the fucking Hornets with its mediocrity

[jayzusdeomni]

As a Bulls fan, I honestly had high hopes for the new administration. Nobody could have done worse than late 2010s GarPax... but it hurts that the last good memory I have of the Bulls was all the way back in 2011.

The only player who it makes sense for them to hang onto is Coby White. White is young, on a great contract, and has shown All-Star upside in recent months. That's their first building block for the next era. Now it's the front office's job to surround him with other good players on a similar timeline. The path to doing that is to trade away their veterans. Everyone in the entire NBA recognizes this except the Bulls. Maybe they truly don't care because their attendance is so high that they make money either way. But the fans deserve better.

It's even worse when you factor in what the Knicks offered for Lavine a year ago.

As a Bulls fan… All I can say is it’s just been years of disappointment since 2012

[IsraelQuiroz]

The GM just wants to be "Competitive" i guess that means losing in the play-in tournament... as a Bulls fan its literally a horrible situation to be in, i hate rooting against my team but thats what i want cuz i dont know what could ever change, its quadrupling down on a team that one a single playoff game in how many seasons and is only getting older

[walker]

AK is delusional. You saw that with his post deadline presser

If you rank teams based on future outlook the Bulls are 30. And they've been 30 for a while. And its a decisive 30. Nobody else is really even in the conversation for that last spot.

The issue with this tear-down mentality is that the Bulls have a ceiling (or floor depending on how you look at it) on how bad they can be without getting rid of the young players they're trying to develop. Coby, Ayo, and Pat aren't going to set the league on fire, but they're certainly a better team than the bottom rung of the league. So either the Bulls would have to ditch those guys in total opposition to logic or they'd end up where they were right after the Jimmy trade, too good to get a super high pick but too bad to even make the 7th or 8th seeds.

Sitting on assets isn't a great plan but every young guy on the team talks about how impactful playing with guys like DeMar and AC has been to their game. It's better to keep them as a way to help the younger players get better rather than just moving them for a few second-round picks that go nowhere.

Too many people I think work off the idea that rebuilds are a linear progression. Trade the near stars for picks, suck for a few years, then be contending, but that's not how it works. You need a strong culture even in the losing years or else the team just never gains any traction and the young players fail to develop. That's why the Pistons are still at the bottom despite multiple top picks, the Hornets have never been good no matter who they pick up, and the Rockets were awful until they got a new coach and a few vets to help pick the kids up. You need the culture in place first or else all those picks are just pissing into the wind.

Having good vets around the young guys > Going into another rebuild for no reason. Rebuilds are massive risks that don't pay out for every team. DeRozan has contributed greatly to the progression of Coby White, PWill, Ayo, Dalen etc. If anything the Bulls are just biding their time to "retool" around the young core they have when there are better options available.

[Orlander]

If you really really think about it other then getting LUCKY with the D Rose era and the half of season we were the 1st seed the Bulls have been mediocre at best since MJ left and that’s crazy to say.

[karimw.]

3.5 games behind the 6th seed is a disaster? That’s ridiculous.

[JVP_Productions]

Says he doesn't need to make a cut, instantly does so at 0:51 😂

[blitzblink]

this video is painful as hell as a hawks fan who had to endure a loss to this bulls team the other night :)

[denomac]

you dont know what teams offered the bulls for their players. and just because they made no trades doesnt mean they didnt add players. so that was pointless. the reason why competion and parity is dead in the sports is because everyone preaches championship or tank. teams making the playoffs is no longer looked at as success.

[VainYeager]

Demar in Chicago is just a similar situation when he was in San Antonio

[Samuel-zrvd]

What trade could they have made to make the team a contender? The team came off a rebuild 3 years ago. You do not rebuild a team every 2 to 3 years. Why would the Chicago be the first team to do that?

[TannHayden]

As a Jazz fan, watching videos like this makes me grateful that our FO has the balls to trade away stars at the right time. This deadline frustrated our fanbase, but I'm happy we didn't do what Chicago has done (prayers up for Bulls fans)

[scottgibson]

Apparently the Bulls don't feel they would have gotten value for their players. It could be argued that Chicago's bad spell began with Ball's injury situation. If Ball ever were to be healthy, the entire situation could change (with the same players).It is interesting that you say Coby White is a rising star. Not that long ago folks were wondering if he was really an NBA guard.
