2012-2013 Boozer leads the Bulls to a last seed in the playoffs thread

Deng trade rumors to Golden State? Rose out until the playoffs. Excitement around the 29th pick?

I don't think Garpax will make any substantial moves. They seem to overvalue their core, so trading deng won't happen. Thibs will get the bulls into the playoffs, where the bulls will lose early, instead of following the spurs model of tanking the season to get a better draft pick.

They'll never do it. And besides, there's no Tim Duncan type of player available in next year's draft anyway.

They'd still be better off doing it.

Aren't they going to sign Patrick Roy's brother?

Why not? Seems like a perfectly GarPax thing to do. Brandon Roy and his peg legs lining up in the backcourt with the earthly remains of Rip Hamilton. Sounds invincible to me. They should have D. Rose bring the ball out to mid-court for the tip every game. The Chads would eat that shit up.

Seriously though, the way the roster is shaping up, they could easily tank the season. All they'd have to do is fire Thibs and hire Patrick Ewing. Ewing would get bored and go to sleep. Thibs would squeeze 45 wins and a 7th seed out of that turd and maybe win a game against the Pacers before Hansbrough jumped into the stands and attacked David Axelrod's kid, started a riot, got the whole team suspended and catapulted the Bulls into a second-round matchup with the Knicks, who would punch every fire extinguisher in sight before losing in 7. Then it's Bulls/Heat in the conference finals. By then, you'll have D. Rose in prime shape and, as everybody but ESPN already knows, he's the best player in the NBA now, so... boom. Finals. But nobody can beat the Thunder. Nooo...body.

Bulls take Teague. I like it, he was the best available talent at this spot.

Derrick gets hurt and they draft a new point guard? Just like that? Let's just bury the guy already. NO RESPEK. Garpstink is terrible.

Can't wait to watch Hinrich play shooting guard once Rose is back.

KC Johnson thinks that Hinrich is their plan for SG in 2013-2014 when Rip's contract is up because who cares Miami is going to win anyway.

If they somehow decide to punt like that (they should be fired and) they could at least opt for more defense from their wings. Heinrich is probably adequate against dudes his size and under but his post defense is nill. Plus he's white.

Using a mid level exception on a player who is worse than CJ Watson, yet makes more money, makes no sense. But he took a paycut, so Jerry has to like that. Once the nets get howard, the bulls will be the 5-6th best team in the east, with a healthy lineup.
