Chicago Bulls Playoffs Thread

[bukie]

Bill Simmons decided to write an article on the NBA playoffs "power rankings" so far. I liked the blurb about Noah and Rose:

 

Their 2010 playoff performances was a co-written love letter to LeBron and Wade. Here's what the letter said ...

 

Dear LeBron and Dwyane,

 

We are wired correctly. We give a crap. We want to win. We are really really good. We are warriors. We could absolutely be the second-best and third-best guys on a team that wins multiple titles. Sadly, this can't happen without one of you. Please think about Chicago. It's cold during the winter, but during the spring and summer, there's no better place. It's the No. 3 TV market. It's the city that once had the greatest player ever. We're firing our coach and GM this summer; if you want, you can pick the next two guys. We want to win titles. Not title ... titles. By the way, Joakim wants you to know that he isn't nearly as annoying if he's your teammate.

 

Much respect,

Joakim and Derrick

i'd add that either of the FA's are going to need rose and noah just as much.

That was the best thing Simmons write since he wrote that Shannahan seemed to be constantly telepathically screaming at everyone during games.
