Am I the only one. . . .?

Am I the only one who hates that we've wasted almost an entire season to make us "supposedly" better in the long-run? Does anyone hate that we suck this year? Does anyone hate that we can't win the games that we would have won last year?

AND PLEASE: Don't start this "well, last year we had the luck of having other teams suffer." No, this year we lost our front court, and the rest of the players are so lost on the court that we have no one to feed the ball to for easy baskets. And we get killed every night on offense, and although defense is okay, I don't remember one time that defense got us a win during this season.

Here's another little reason why we completely suck this season:

SHAQ AND DWYANE WADE CAME TO CHICAGO -- OUR HOME COURT!!! -- AND PLAYED LIKE WE DO ALL SEASON, BUT SINCE THEY'RE ALL-STARS, THEY GOT TO THE LINE LIKE 1000 TIMES, AND WE LOST A GAME THAT WE WERE IN FOR MOST OF THE GAME.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME A TEAM LOST A GAME WHEN THEIR STARTERS GOT BEAT BY FRIGGIN' BENCH PLAYERS????? AND DOESN'T IT SEEM WEIRD WE HAD A BETTER FIELD GOAL PERCENTAGE BUT WE STILL LOST BECAUSE WE CAN'T GET TO THE FREE THROW LINE??


Am I the only one who actually thinks we suck, or do I just not see you guys posting and saying it too? I may be wrong, but I just feel like I'm talking to myself at times, and no one else feels like this season was a complete waste.

Sorry, I'm just frustrated at how this season has gone. I hate seeing my favorite team lose like this, and sometimes I'd rather just let my frustration out by saying what I think. I'll try and stop doing it.
be patient bulls fans the bulls can still make the playoffs but next season is the bulls season to shine paxson is looking to make a big trade in the offseason i have faith in him i mean hes gotten us players to make it this far without a center, a superstar, or GOOD leadership all i hear is the bulls are not going to make the playoffs the bulls are not going to make the playoff and yall call yourselves bulls fans especially when yall are saying it when we were 2 games behind philly or the bucks the more yall say negative things it usually happens i mean its not like 8 teams in our conference have clutched the playoff spots and we are 9th right now. yall were more confident that we can make the playoffs with a bunch or 3 years and under players and no superstar from a 0-9 start why cant yall be confident when were 3 games out of a playoff spot with 18 or so more games to go

when i say yall im only refering to the people who dont think we can make it to the playoffs when there is a chance. there are true bulls fans who stick with there team throught think and thin.

even if the bulls dont make the playoffs its not the end of the world the higher our pick gets the easier it will be to trade for a big man along with the knicks pick. and the next season teams will most likely play us lightier then what we will be if we dont. like they did last year and thats why we had 47 wins not because only eddy sure he gave us some quick points but it paxson can sign nene he can do the same thing and without the concern of the heart problem in the middle of the season eddy was out games and we still won i think if deng was not hurt we would have beaten the wizards. the reason was because teams thought we were not good because we havent made it since jordan and because we had antonio davis

why do you think isiah tomas kept antonio davis (GOOD old leadership) instead of waiving him he was one of the real reasons we went to the playoffs last season.

I'm frustrated because we've managed to piss away at LEAST 20 games this season because we couldn't play good enough defense to stop other teams from making runs. And the things you mentioned are the exact reasons why we aren't going to be a good team or make it to the playoffs: no leader, no star player, no center for easy buckets. You need those things in order to have a winning formula, and we don't have ONE of them. Yes, I believe we're doing damn good for what Paxson gave us, but please. Doesn't anyone wish we could have kept Davis and Curry and maybe have gotten farther into the playoffs this season? I mean, yeah, it may not have worked out, but if it happened once, what's to say it couldn't have happened again this season? That's all I'm trying to say. But if Paxson doesn't do good this offseason, what then? Do we just say "well, we'll do better next season." No, doing that makes us losers. Face it, we're losers now, and Pax has to get rid of a lot of guys and bring in a lot of other guys to make us winners again.

i really just wish we could have kept antonio davis if eddy curry didnt have that heart condition i would still want him but since he did he had to go.

watch and listen to this video

I think everyone here knows Sweetney and Thomas have been busts, since Thomas isn't here and Sweetney can't get in shape to save his life. So now the trade looks more like:

Chicago Trades: Eddy Curry (offensive presence) and AD (veteran leader)

New York Trades: Picks


That's it! I don't see any other valuable pieces that were traded in that deal. We basically lost our frontcourt players for draft picks. We also lost our balance on the team with AD as the leader, like everyone already knows. Now we have nothing.

P.S.: Did you check out that Comcast Video in the list? The first one with Gordon and Hinrich talking about "now is the time to go out and win, and that the game against Milwaukee was a winnable game, but they just couldn't show up." Talk about the story of the year: OUR GUYS NEVER SHOW UP WHEN IT MATTERS!

Anyone else think I'm wrong?
Nene did have that explosiveness, but I'm worried that maybe the guy won't be healthy for his entire career, and that maybe if we get him and he ends up getting seriously hurt again, we lose money and time in trying to get us another big who doesn't get hurt easily.

I mean, he hasn't played all season! Who's to say he's gonna be the same after surgery and all the work he's had to put into getting back into playing shape. I just hope that we're lucky and can get the guy and he ends up having a ton of great years with us as a Chicago Bull.

Us bulls fans have to have faith i mean amare is the same way and they are paying him a max deal lol
also with kenyon martin they payed him a max deal and he is way worse he stays hurt.

I think overall Amare is better than Nene. But maybe it's just because I haven't seen much of Nene.

Don't get me wrong, I want Nene to come here if it's possible. I'm just worried that maybe he won't be able to provide that socring punch that we need. Seriously, who do you think could come to Chicago and just help us right off the bat? I sure don't have any names in mind. That's why I wish the trade hadn't happened, because we already had a center who could play the low-post.

And veteran bigs are in short supply these days that it's almost impossible to find one that can help us in any way.

But if you have names, I'd really like to know who you think could help us right away next year.

first of all get antonio davis back thats at least 4 more games we would have won with him
second get nene
third trade the two picks we have/ trade or just get rid of pargo sweetney(i dont know wuts happened to him but he doesnt fit skiles type anymore i guess) eddie basden (possibly he can stay i think he will improve)pike, othella harrington(he really made me upset that bucks game he didnt even look like he cared)
fourth wouldnt it be nice if we got emeka okafor but its not possible unless their GM pulls the jerry krause lol.

this is wut our roster looks like now

Starters

Kirk Hinrich
Ben Gordon
Luol Deng

Nene Hilario

bench

Chris Duhon
Jay Williams(id just like to see him back lol :biggrin: )( hey id rather see him here then pargo and pike)
Andres Nocioni
Tyson Chandler(plays better off the bench)
Malik Allen
