Well, I'm not proud to admit this, but the score is 43-35 Orlando as I write this. The second after they lose this game, the Bulls are officially on the clock.

I can hear that old Sam Cooke song now, "A Change is Gonna Come."

I think that GarPax are finally getting it.

With D-Rose out, Bulls want to ensure their unproven PGs -- Marquis Teague and newly acquired DJ Augustin -- get as much PT as possible

Derrick Rose with Jabari Parker when he was in 8th grade.

Ok, I'm in. But how in the hell do we get Jabari Parker? He's probably the top pick in the draft. That would require an EPIC tank job, like maybe winning five or six of our remaining games. LOL

We've been playing shitty teams and have been losing. We were in a struggle to beat the Bucks and they fucking blow. Don't worry once we start playing more West teams and the upper half of the East we will be seeing a lot of Ls.

If not Jabari either I'd be pretty content with Wiggins or Embiid :shrug:

I think the Bulls are one of the last teams that would intentionally tank. I think they're trying to play hard... they just really aren't that good.

All that we need is a chance, fellas.

Don't forget that we had a 1.7% chance of getting the number 1 pick a few years ago & it worked out for us. We selected Rose.

Well if we trade Deng, maybe we can get 2 picks in the top 15. When do we actually get that damn Charlotte pick?

People are seeing the light :smug:

Potentially the Charlotte pick will be outside the top 10 this year, especially if they make the playoffs. Assuming we continue this suckfest, we'll be in the top 10 for sure. Top 10 pick + probably a top 20 pick (or right outside the lotto depending on how bad Charlotte does) is pretty good. We could even package those to move up depending on how high our pick is. If it's high enough we could move into the top 5. If we get a lotto pick for Deng...things could be pretty bright for next season.

Agreed. Trading Deng for an expiring + 1st gives us a shot have having 3 picks inside the top 15-20 in the 1st round of the most loaded draft in ever.

Do it.

I actually believe that Boozer has value as a trade asset this off-season.

Don't forget that he'll be an expiring & plenty of teams will be looking to clear cap-space for the following off-season when Love & LMA hit free-agency.

Oh we lose the tiebreaker to Cleveland? :kermit:

Picks 8 and 16 would not be bad at all...

If only there was a way to dump Deng off in Utah or something for their pick...but they'd never do it. Maybe Atlanta would give us that pick they're owed from Brooklyn? Wishful thinking

We will be moving up soon.

I fully expect that both the Nets & Knicks will turn their season's around & make the playoffs. The Knicks have absolutely no incentive to tank because they don't even own their pick....The Nets were hampered by D-Will's injury earlier this season, but he's now back & Joe Johnson hit 10 three pointers tonight.

Bobcats need to start losing more, and Brooklyn needs to start winning.

And then we just need the Wizards and the Bobcats to fall out of the playoffs and we'll have 3 lotto picks :D
