So Mr. Let's Blow It Up And Start Over Yet Again, how do you propose we build a champion? Amass a bunch of draft picks and hope you hit the HOF lottery drafting the next Jordan/Kobe/Steph? Trade for younger guys you think could be superstars? You're certainly not going to get any quality FA's to come here anytime soon if you blow this roster up so quickly. i never said i have all the answers. i'm just saying that it's obvious to the basketball world outside of chicago that winning a title with this core is not going to happen. bulls fans are the only ones who have convinced themselves that it's possible. the only reason there is any hype is because of a ridiculously hot start where we won a bunch of close games against bad teams. i'm sick of hearing about injuries. the whole league was battered this year. we were mostly healthy down the stretch and we completely and totally folded. not even competitive. lonzo is a nice player, but he is not making that kind of difference. he's also hurt every year, so stop expecting him to play most of our games. this is a team that got outscored for the season, but we're already talking ourselves into believing that complementary changes and better health are going to vault us into contender status? i will root for this team next season and have fun with whatever wins they get. i also know that it's ultimately going nowhere.

i just think that building around demar and lavine is a fool's errand and the ceiling will be extremely limited. hopefully i'm wrong but i don't think anyone here actually believes we can win a title with those 2 guys as our stars either.
-
Lonzo means way more to the Bulls than Middleton does to the Bucks. What big changes do you propose? middleton is better than lonzo. the fact that the bulls are so thin that lonzo might "mean more" is not a credit to the team i already said i want to either blow it up or move one of zach/demar. this core is never getting remotely close to a championship.
-
you know this team is going to finish with a bad record, right?
-
Ortega's baserunning really fucked that inning. Should have had a triple to begin with and then botched the suzuki double
-
literally every pitch is a fastball right down the middle and the cubs can't touch it
-
we traded one of the best closers of all time for nick madrigal
-
there are so many complete nobodies on this team
-
at least the middleton injury means people won't whine about lonzo's absence being responsible for this disaster. hopefully the FO doesn't use it as an excuse either. we need big changes.
-
go crazy folks
-
david's 20 spot is still in play
-
the fact that they were 1st in the east for a while is not indicative of the quality of this team.

what happened to gleyber torres?
