Am I the only one who hates the Bucks?

[postdiction]

Those no good toothless losers are really getting on my nerves.

It bugs the hell out of me that we gave away Salmons and then the pick swap.

Then I have to hear from some of their fans how they think Jennings > Rose and Bogus > Noah blah blah blah.

How Hammond is the best GM and was responsible for putting together the Pistions championship

How Skiles should be coach of the year blah blah blah.

I hope they get swept by the 4th seed, Salmons opts out and then goes to a different team. Without him they are pretty mediocre.

:angry:

 

[72-10]

I hate the Bucks just because they're the Bucks.

Losing Salmons was important to our potential offseason free agent plans so I'm not too broken up about it. IIRC, the pick swap is top 10 protected so that helps.

 

[houheffna]

If after all this time and what Rose has done this season, you are still bothered by people saying Jennings is better than Rose, than you are a bit too sensitive. The Bogut/Noah argument may be valid, Bogut is a beast.

 

[RC_Skinny22]

Skiles should get the coach of the year award. But I don´t think it will happen. I still wish he would still be here.

Bucks have a solid core with Jennings, Salmons and Bogut. Bulls would have had the same record with Rose, Deng and Noah being healthy.

I´ve got a question: In the NBA live games, when you play the Bulls against the Bucks it says it´s a rivaly game. The only other is against the Knicks what I understand. But what happened in history that the Bucks are our second rival?

I don´t hate the Bucks but I don´t like that Bogut. I think he is in my player hating starting 5.

 

[TheStig]

I disagree, I hate them coming out of nowhere but you have to like the bucks. They got a group of outcasts together and formed a good winning team. They work hard and play the right way, its the same way our team was a few years ago. I think they are what makes basketball great.

i dont hate the bucks, but i'm not happy they're winning. i'd rather they be at the bottom 5 of the nba, and we'd have the 11th pick. Then again i dont know if we can afford a higher pick and retain hopes of a max offer. I like skiles, but i dont want him back. I love rose and noah, and i dont think there's a shadow of doubt that rose is better than jennings. Noah and bogut offer a team different things, and i'm suprised bogut is finishing a year w/o serious injuries. (ultimately i'd take noah over bogut any day of the weak given bogut's injury record. )

I dislike the Bucks for the sole reason that they make us look like idiots with Salmons playing out of his mind for them.

 

[houheffna]

You guys are not looking at the big picture, why would you cry over Salmons? Who cares? Would you rather have Salmons or the cap space?

I'm not crying over Salmons, I'm just kinda pissed that he's playing so well for them while he was sucking here.

are we in or out of the playoffs?

 

[Hendu0520]

I just hate the Bucks because they can swap picks with us. Other than that I like that Jennings can be a rival to Rose in the future (Rose is obviously better but it is nice to have a guy to push him in the same conference). Why did they get to swap with us? we gave up more talent in the trade, why did they throw that in? At the time we were way ahead of the Bucks but Bulls management should've known we were one injury away.

The thing that also pisses me off is that we should have their record!

 

[Shakes]

How can you hate a Skiles coached team? I do hate Bogut though, he was trash talking Luc Longley before he'd done jack in the NBA.

are we in or out of the playoffs?

Which is more important to you? Being in the playoffs or talking to Lebron, Bosh and Wade this summer?

None of those guys are talking to us if we aren't in the playoffs.

That's just a ridiculous statement. I really don't get why everyone is so adamant that no playoffs=no big FA. Playoffs or no, we still have the young talent, the money, & the market to attract any of them. It's not like we're the 2000 Bulls with the worst coach ever, a bunch of scrubs, & coming off one of the worst seasons in team history. I mean for crissakes Lebron even adknowledged that we've been snake bitten with injuries & he's knows we're better than what we are playing like right now. NBA players don't live in a little box all the time. They watch & follow other players. It's called knowing your competition. Playoffs would be nice but they are not essential to having off season success.

As for the Bucks, hate their fans, love their team, & love their coach. It's nice to see them back in the playoffs. You guys just need to ignore their moronic, fair weather cheesehead fan base.

Its not ridiculous. All of them have stated they want to play for winners. There have been talk of them teaming up. If we miss the playoffs we can't offer them either situation and a team like Miami can offer them both. IF this had been coming off of last post season, we would be looking pretty good. But missing the playoffs in the east is inexcusable to the big 3.

 

[JimmyBulls]

I hate that the Bucks should be able to upgrade at the four with our lottery pick.

I´m pretty sure Lebron and Dwayne don´t care about the Bulls making the playoffs this season or not because they know that the team they are playing for is automatically in the Playoffs next season.

They don't just wanna make the playoffs. They want to be contenders and win rings. You don't leave playoff and contending teams to join a non playoff team to do that. Its taking a step back not forward.

You are either a high powered agent to some of the players or you claim to know what these players are thinking and you are insulting their intelligence. I think the latter is true. These players understand the dynamics of winning in this league. Not having Rose, Noah and Deng makes a difference. You may not understand that, I think the players do.
