Says the guy that suggested we should bring Butler off the bench. Now there's some foresight! ............ :lmao:

You must be illiterate.

From what you quoted.

From where I sit the Bulls have to bring in someone who can shoot the ball and push Butler. Even if the Bulls get Melo, they are not going to beat any of the good teams if they have a starting SG who cannot hit an open jumper. I don't think they can just hand him the starting job this season. I hope he develops 3 point range, but I don't think the Bulls should bet the season on it.

I don't think bringing in someone to push him is a bad thing. Hell right now, that statement has never been more true. The Bulls need another wing.

Here are some of your gems:

If you want I can go back and pull up posts where you suggesting Josh Smith.

You also have a lot of old posts talking about how the Bulls could never bring anyone in and that they were in cap hell forever. Stupid people who live in glass houses should not throw things; especially when what the quote does not even support what they are trying to state. I don't like to pull up old crap because it is useless and infantile. If you want me to I can though. I already looked them up because I know what thread they are in.

There have been a lot of stupid trade suggestions and Trading Noah has been at the top of the list. Never mind sentiment. The Bulls have three guys on their team who play defense: Noah, Gibson, and Butler. The remaining personnel has an offensive slant. Thibs is a defensive coach whose defensive system is really formidable. And Noah is the quarterback of that defense. If you trade Noah, you're giving up on this season. It makes more sense to let him get healthy. If you trade Noah and bring in Green, you're losing far more than your gaining.

The addle mindedness of these suggestions are hysterical. Some of these suggestions serve to reinforce the idea that the Internet is a bunch of retards spewing nonsense.

Sure we help NOW at the wing. Let's start with the two wing players already on our roster who have been injured. :dunno:
Josh Smith? Bring up any old posts you want. I'm pretty consistent in what I say.

No, "addle mindedness" is thinking this team is good enough to win a chsmpionship as constructed.

Seriously, how long do you people have to watch this shit before you figure anything out? What did Albert Einstein say about insanity? I'm not gonna tell you, so Google it!

Strawman. I said nothing about whether or not the team is currently good enough. But the idea is so beyond full Special person it's not even necessary. Thèse ideas are not solutions. They're just stupid ideas.

Have you ever heard the expression that if you don't open your mouth (not literally but Internet is still speaking), people won't know how stupid you are? Well this just landed on your head (others too). Congratulations, Special person.

Btw, Einstein advanced physics by analogizing trains. Never did he say it was a good idea to step in front of one for the sake of doing something different. So stop using Einstein quotes as cover for your moronic ideas.

How original, calling me stupid for stating what should be obvious to an average IQ. Thanks for sharing.

Face it. Right now, the way they are playing is a first round exit. They suck. Its all one on one shit offensively and a big time sieve defensively. Thibs just may have been tuned out.

Again the Bulls have 3 guys who play defense. I'm not sure trading Rose is the answer either but I'm also not so sure he's been making others better or how well he fits with the other players they have. Or maybe the bigger problem is how Thibs has him playing.

And it's silly to say they're a first round exit. None of the teams in the east are unbeatable.

Well, right now they are in a total mess. Thibs and Gar/Pax need to shake things up. Something is not right at the root of this team. Suddenly they have gone soft. We now are looking at one opposing player ending up with the ball among three Bulls. They have lost heart is the only way that I can really explain the situation. I am tired of Bulls players ending up on the floor and our bigs doing nothing. I caught heat when I said that Gasol was a slightly better Boozer and for awhile Gasol really smashed that theory. Now, though, Gasol is morphing back into a soft player.

27 minutes played ......... 0 points ............ 0 assists ............ 3 rebounds ............... 1 turnover



Why have a guy like this on a team? Anyone know? Is this a time where we have someone talk about the guy being "glue guy"?

People don't appreciate how good Noah is and has been at defense. A lot of the simpletons who post here would characterize him as an energy guy. There's more to it than that. It requires instincts and a desire to be good at defense. Noah covered for a lot of Boozers gaffes over the years. This was often overlooked and rarely appreciated. But Noahs injured and he can't rotate/cover for Gasol the way he once could with Boozer. Gasol is orders of magnitude better than Boozer on length alone. Over time, the Bulls have replaced a lot of defensive players with more offensive players. Rose was easily the best offensive option and he justifiably had carte blanche to do whatever on offense. But with the addition of offense and the loss of defensive players, is it still justifiable for Rose to have carte blanche, especially if there's a big drop off in his defense, which some have observed. And think about that. If true, how poorly does this speak of Rose on the defensive end? This is a defense that turned a poor individual defender in Ray Allen into a good team defender. So what does that say about Rose's effort? And does his offense justify a drop off in his defense (again, accepting that premise). A while back, Thibs spoke of people choosing to be in the circle. Hasnt Rose been in his own circle for a while now?

And again, why is Hinrich on this roster? If you want to talk about small trades, Snell and Hinrich for someone like Tony Allen, ok. If you're going to go as far as uprooting the roster, people should really be considering the value of trading vs keeping Rose.

He even had only 2 fouls. Usually he's good for at least 4 fouls. I've also noticed he's dropped KU when it comes to pre game introductions. I really hope that was at KUs request since he devalues their brand.

Yeah. He sucks. GarPax are to white perimeter players what pedophiles are to playgrounds. They can't help themselves. If not for this defect, you could have said they did solid work in the offseason.

No player is untouchable. If trading Noah makes the Bulls better they should do it. Noah is not the best player in the league; therefore, there are trades that can me be made that can make the Bulls better.

You have to be Special person to think that 99% of the league is not tradeable. Noah is not that 1%.

You better start working on your excuses now. When the Bulls fall short of expectations, yours, you will need them.

Also who the hell suggested the trade Noah and bring in Green? I think I know who is addle-minded.

You must be listening to games on the radio. They're losing because they're not very good. It's not bad luck, or "floor spacing", or waiting for guys to warm up or rehab from injuries. They are who the rest of the league thinks they are. Even Thibs said there is no one coming to save the day for the Bulls. He wants them to play "harder". If I were Rose, that would irritate the shit out of me too.

I'm not interested in reading mouth breathing retards recite truisms like "no player is untouchable." But this idea of yours is stupid. Who are they going to get that's going to assimilate the defense and assimilate it fast enough where it's not a lost season? It's not impossible. It's just far fetched. So much that it's a stupid idea. Or what, is everyone supposed to ignore that it's dumb and acquiesce? Maybe there's an everyone gets a trophy version of CCS.

Noah for Green is beyond stupid. It creates a void and redundancy. Normally when I see ideas like this, I think people should think about what they're saying before they post. But with you that probably wouldn't even help.

Congratulations on your stupid ideas. I look forward to ridiculing you in the future.

Btw, no one is disagreeing with your everyone is tradeable mantra. And with that in mind, the person they should be looking to trade is Rose.

Another straw man. At what point did I say they're losing because they're unlucky? Currently, they're without the cornerstone of their defense and are without a substitute. And even before he was out, he was playing hurt.
