Noah makes Bulls pitch to Anthony

[BNB]

I appreciate Noah's effort, but as mentioned, we probably won't get Melo because we'd have to trade away almost everybody to clear room for him. That's assuming we bring over Mirotic.

We could try it, but it would be extremely risky. If Melo turns us down, we'd be left with Rose, Mirotic, Noah, maybe still either Butler or Snell, a couple of players we draft and that's it.

Sure, we'd still have a lot of money to fill out our roster with other free agents, but unless we land one of the superstars that could opt out of their contract, we'll still be a 2nd or third round team at best. At that point, we'd have to hope Mirotic and our draft picks ind up being really good.

Either way.... I feel like Melo will stay in NY. While I do think he wants to win, I think more money in a larger market playing for his childhood team is more appealing to him.

Which is why I stated that jersey sales is not a true indicator of the health of a player's brand.

Which is why I pointed out your silly logic.

In this bad economy, I'm sure that people have no problem shelling out big money for a jersey of a player that they don't even like.

I had to use green font for your flawed logic.

ROSE'S JERSEY SALES DECREASED, HE WAS NUMBER 1 BEFORE HE FELL TO NUMBER 5 IN JERSEY SALES. AGAIN, NOT A GOOD INDICATOR OF BRAND SALES, BUT YOUR EVIDENCE IS SILLY LOGIC BECAUSE I JUST SHOWED YOU AN EXAMPLE OF A PLAYER WHOSE SALES ACTUALLY DID NOT DECREASE, BUT HIS BRAND SUFFERED BECAUSE HE BECAME INFAMOUS. SAME THING HAPPENED TO KOBE BRYANT YEARS AGO!

Wrote that in capital letters for your flawed logic...

:lmao: He's top 5 in the entire NBA regardless.

:lmao: Every NBA fan in the USA would love to have Lebron on their team.

You should really stop trying.

You're a bitter Rose troll, man.

Biggiesmallbrains thinks he speaks for "every NBA fan in the USA" now. There's a frightening thought.

And you are a hemorrhoid...who has nothing better to do than to troll me.

LOL...and he speaks for Derrick Rose too. I have had arguments with people...ON THIS FORUM who said they don't want and they don't like Lebron James. I have good friends who HATE Lebron James to this day.

Dude is clueless.

 

[Darkman]

Phil Jackson would be interested in the Knicks job to screw the Bulls over again.

Why would I troll a troll?

I've never trolled an internet website & I won't start with you. You only get my attention because of the silliness of your logic concerning Derrick Rose. You probably have the ability to be a better poster, but your bitterness towards Rose makes you appear to be a troll.

After taking another look at your Lebron sig, I'm LMAO at your post.

The reason you "LMAO" so much...is not because you have anything to laugh about...its because you don't have much to say. That is why you can't address the facts presented that shuts down your argument..."He's still top 5" doesn't nullify the fact that he dropped in rankings...which coincided with his ACL injury.

As for my sig...you have no idea of the story behind it...but keep laughing. Every NBA fan would love to have Lebron on their team? Shows that you don't pay attention and you haven't learned much over the last 3 years.

The L in LMAO should stand for "learn" in your case...that way you won't say some of the ignorant things you say.

Your argument centered around your OPINION that Derrick Rose's brand suffered because he didn't return from his ACL tear when you wanted him to.

I showed you a link & list from December 2013 that showed Rose's jersey sales were #3 in the NBA. You then stated (without proof) that Rose's jersey sales being #5 proved that your OPINION was correct. I then pointed out the silliness of your logic. I chose not to argue #3 -vs- #5 because it makes no difference. Even if he did clock in at #5, it still shows how faulty your logic is. Rose landing on that list as #1, #3, or #5 shows that his brand has not suffered.

At this point, I just think you're a complete idiot.

Lebron James is the Michael Jordan of this era. I don't care how people feel about him personally, they would love to have him leading their team to a title.

The "L' should stand for how "Lame" you are as a bitter Derrick Rose troll.

Now, if we can get Bulls fans to realize this ...

 

[Axl Rose]

pretty much every Bull fan loves Noah

he might even be more loved than Rose

Except for the ones that think we should trade him, Taj, and the Mirotic pick for DuhMarcus Cousins.

You totally missed the point of showing that his sales decreased and WHY they decreased. You also missed the point about Lebron James' steady sales...but his brand suffered. Why? Because you don't know shit about branding and marketing! You posted a list and didn't even know the effectiveness of it.

There are a few people who were here who were glad that Lebron didn't come here and STILL don't want him here. Did you listen to sports radio at all? Did you read comments section in either newspaper? Have you taken your head out of your ass at all since 2010 to do anything other than to troll me? People across the country hated Lebron James!

Good grief...

By the way, I don't just pull made out of stats out of nowhere...like you do...

Here is a Chicago columnist talking about Rose's image taking a beating...

I have to say, having been in marketing practically my entire Business life, I wouldn't call dropping from #3 to #5 in Jersey sales, exactly a tarnished image. Especially when he hasn't played for two years.

Furthermore, the article you refer to was written when DRose was on the bench and the Bulls were fighting in the playoffs last year. It was just part of the media shit storm that the media created. And you're just the Pavlovian dog that hates DRose for that. :shrug:

And I don't give a damn what you think because you haven't paid attention. I hope in your business life you didn't have to use comprehension skills...because you suck at it.

Go buy yourself a Jarvis Vanardo jersey...and STFU!

 

[RC_Skinny22]

Shouldn´t it be normal that the jersey sale numbers from a player goes down a couple of years later, after he had his breakout?

You know, like most of the people have a jersey of him now?

I could imagine Stephen Curry´s jersey sale number is pretty high right now.
