Overly celebrating regular season wins isn't the mark of a winning franchise. If their fans are excited they beat an injured Lakers team then clearly things haven't been going well for Chicago sports |

The Lakers won a championship in 2020 with Lebron and AD leading the way.
When was the last championship by the Bulls? Scottie says Lebron Over MJ
How many rings does Julius, BI, Lonzo, and Zubac have?
 |
if LeBron is here I can see us having 1 ring with Julius, BI, Lonzo and Randle. If we kept Thomas Bryant as our stretch 5 as well.
For sake of argument I think we win 1 ring with that group. We'll never know bit I think there was enough talent there if added with the vets we wound up getting that we'd have a won at least 1 chip. Depends on how much you think LeBron adds to the team, and if the combination of BI, Lonzo, Julius match Anthony Davis's production. |
Pure speculation.
You must've missed Randle laying an egg and getting exposed these recent playoffs. I can only imagine how the board would've pounced on him.

Problem with this hypothetical question is James had no interest in playing with those young guys. He threw them under the before mid season and quit on them by seasons end. |

You should apply for a job as an advance scout for the Lakers.
Your basketball IQ is clearly much better than Lebron/AD/Rob 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡 |

Just wish we had some shooters. These guys are just not cutting it. Wayne, Monk, Melo are not consistent. Then you add in Ariza and Nunn who are not consistent shooters at all either. Then our superstars are not good from 3 either. They are all streaky shooters. We need people that can shoot night in and night out. I don't understand how Rob doesn't understand this. |

Lakers lose 121-103
Was actually competitive for quite a bit of the game. Lakers D actually looked solid. Bulls were hitting lots of contested jumpers. Were down 9 at the half. Russ was keeping the team in the game.
They got within about 6 in the 3rd...and then the wheels fell off. Bulls aggressive D just seemed to wear down, Lakers D then went back to bad habits, and the bad third quarter reared its head again. Outscored 37-25 in that quarter. Game over.
Bulls really befuddled AD, immediately doubling, very aggressively, with their guys (usually LaVine doubled)...and they would immediately start snatching at the ball. There were likely quite a few fouls the refs did not call (this crew stunk, Scott Wall stinks too), which made the Bulls even more aggressive. Not saying it made a difference, but was hard to watch.
Lakers now 8-7. They are what they are right now - a .500 team. _________________ "One thing I admire about Kuzma is his unwavering confidence. He truly has no idea that he’s not as good as he thinks." - Killer_Z |

Any way the Lakers can buy defense or does that come with a mindset? |

Butler went down and Robinson shot like Westbrook.
That won't normally be the case in a seven game series. |

Bazemore sucks
Westbrook, for the most part, sucks
Monk is inconsistent
Jordan sucks
Howard is slightly washed, does a little bit in limited action
Ellington is hot and cold
THT is streaky
Melo is streaky
Davis is hot and cold
Rondo is washed…
Need I say more?? |

Tonight is a perfect example of a team not fun to watch on both sides of the ball. US.
An then a team really fun to watch on both sides of the ball in the Bulls.
Lebron will definitely make us fun again as he should lift up the entire roster with his greatness. An yes in year 19 if he can stay healthy.
We gotta a lot of work to do an it wouldn’t hurt to steal the Bulls motto especially on the defensive end. Teachable moment and it’s up to the guys to lock in.
65 games left 🙏🏀🙏🏀🙏 |

People saying Bulls are going to the finals because they beat us by 50....Like dude we suck this win means nothing for them We are not a measuring stick on how good a team is. If good teams dont win against us they aren't that good. |

Honestly it’s only gonna get worse. When teams understand that you’re a joke they come into the game against you with confidence. That’s why we struggle with bad teams and get destroyed by decent teams. |

LBJ sucks as GM. He won inspite of his horrible GM skills because of his talent as a player.
Its waste to even talk about AD/Rob |

The sixers will not trade us Simmons for Westbrook, not even if we include THT. |

Now you are reaching. Lebron has been to the finals 10 times including 8 straight. You think he had nothing to do with getting wade, Bosh, love, AD? The moment he realized heat weren’t winning, he bounced. |
