So saying that somebody is better than Derrick Rose makes you a hater? Nobody's saying that Rose isn't a good player. The problem with Rose is defense and efficiency. You look at last night, he scored a lot of points but did it very inefficiently.

Well they're not going to blame themselves and admit their own incompetency. It's always the coaches fault. Even though everybody and their mother could have seen that letting go of your best player in the offseason was a potential disaster. Well I guess everybody except the incompetent fools that run this team.

Like who? I mean we had a shooting guard and chose not to sign him.

Dude is garbage and has a player option for next year. If he continues sucking and doesn't opt out in the summer you can say goodbye to potentially signing a big time free agent.

Awesome.

Yeah lets blame Vinny. It's his fault that John Salmons sucks. It's his fault that we have nobody who can score when it matters. It's his fault that our owner is cheap.

Quite easily. :lol: Or did I not include enough smiley faces to make my point valid?

Who the hell is he suppose to play? Lindsay Hunter? Aaron Gray? Pargo? It's not his fault that the idiots that run this team let our best player walk in the offseason.

Based on what? Tell me something he's great at. So he can shoot out to 17 feet. That's not good for a guard. That makes things harder for your teammates. Great players make things easier for others. Lindsay Hunter?

I feel sorry for Vinny. He'll get the blame even though he's got a horrible roster lacking talent.

Rose is grossly overrated. He's a mediocre point guard at best. Can't shoot, plays horrible defense, is a terribly inefficient scorer, doesn't really make people around him better, and lacks an aggressive mentality to ever be a superstar in this league.

Evans. He's better at every single aspect of the game.

Try 35...in the 3rd quarter.

Derrick Rose is a mediocre point guard. Severely overrated. Luol Deng is clearly the superior player right now.

Lakers by 30.

It would be pointless. It's not Vinny's fault this team sucks. The roster just isn't that talented. Besides, if he's fired I'd rather go after Byron Scott.

The Bulls suck. My God. I knew we would be bad this year but I didn't think we'd suck this much. My prediction of 35-38 wins might have been to generous.

The Bulls suck. Can't even score 80 on one of the worst defensive teams in the league, allowing 110 ppg.

Who cares? Thomas is dumb as rocks. He's an athlete, not a basketball player. The sooner he's gone the better.

What an epic train wreck. That set the game of basketball back 50 years.

Both Gibson and Johnson look better than I expected, but it's only preseason. Until the games start to matter it means nothing. To me this team is really hard to get a read on. Personally I don't think they'll be that good, 38 wins is my prediction. If somebody from the future told me that they'd win 50 games I could see it happening, at the same time if they said 25 wins I'd have no trouble believing them. It's going to depend on a lot of things going right.
