Nothing in that post says they’ll make the playoffs.

But yes, I would hope it would be predictable for a fan of a team to enjoy a 7 game win streak by said team and hope for more.

FF and good dolphin are the sole reasons why the Bears, White Sox, and bulls suck. They enable poor management by continuing to support these shitshows. If you're an owner/VP Business, why improve a team when good dolphin will gladly put money in your pocket to watch Mike Glennon fumble the ball more times than he completes a pass? Or when favrefan's support of the bulls keeps gar forman in power? #Complicit.

It’s not our fault you don’t understand what being a fan is. Go appreciate greatness on a Cavs forum.

Jimmy Butler has nothing to do with this. Also not top ten clown.

When it appeared the plan was to tank you bashed. When it appears they arent tanking you still bashed.

Its obvious that there is nothing that pleases your sour ass. You are nothing more than a run of the mill diss machine.

Favor Gar Forman? I don’t even know what that means. I was calling for him to be fired years ago.

Bandwagon fans are the child molesters of sports fans. I can’t believe you’re actually making the case to become a bandwagon fan.

Why call for anyone to be fired? What's the point if you're gonna root for wins when the team is 12-34 or 50-14? If you're rooting regardless then implicitly you support the front office and coaching staff as well.

anyone cheering for this Bulls team to win a single game is grade A moron.


It's like they don't remember what being stuck in NBA mediocrity feels like. This upcoming draft is LOADED at the top, no excuse for the Bulls not doing everything in their power to secure as many lotto balls as possible.

This is the exact same shit that happened the year we got Rose. Bulls won a bunch of worthless games and morons like the ones celebrating this current win streak were all excited about the Bulls battle to try and get that last playoff spot. It was only because of a 1% chance that we got the #1 pick in that draft.


I always ask the morons the same question...what would you rather have, a low seed in the playoffs and a likely first round exit or 10 years with a franchise level talent? The short sightedness of these morons never ceases to amaze me.

The Bulls had a massive win streak and managed to get to 10 wins.

I think they have plenty of suck left in them this year so enjoying some bright spots in a shit year isn't at all odd.

Nah its thinking that tanking is a bad idea overall. I provided evidence as to how they tanked to acquire Michael Jordan. FF was unaware of it so he tried to discount it. I go back a little further than he and I attempted to enlighten him on how the acquisition of Jordan was accomplished. It changed the future of the franchise. That is an indisputable fact.

You win with elite players. The best way to acquire elite players is to draft them. It is that simple. Typically your elite players are found in the top 3-5 spots of the draft.

And I think they'll still be in the top 3-5 even if they manage to win a few games.

You high draft pick guys got it all wrong. The teams that are elite right now in the NBA are due to massive trades and FA signings. High picks are important but good teams can find other avenues to better themselves. This Bull team might just be one scorer short off the bench to maybe move up to a better than 41 win team. The offseason might than provide some other parts to the puzzle.

NEVER TANK!

I think they have plenty of suck left in them this year so enjoying some bright spots in a shit year isn't at all odd.



Nah its thinking that tanking is a bad idea overall. I provided evidence as to how they tanked to acquire Michael Jordan. FF was unaware of it so he tried to discount it. I go back a little further than he and I attempted to enlighten him on how the acquisition of Jordan was accomplished. It changed the future of the franchise. That is an indisputable fact.

You win with elite players. The best way to acquire elite players is to draft them. It is that simple. Typically your elite players are found in the top 3-5 spots of the draft.


And I think they'll still be in the top 3-5 even if they manage to win a few games.



I want them to get the 1st or 2nd pick. I really want Ayton. I think he may be the best of the bunch. Would settle for the other 3 and not be bothered though.

Bandwagon fans are the child molesters of sports fans. I can’t believe you’re actually making the case to become a bandwagon fan.


Why call for anyone to be fired? What's the point if you're gonna root for wins when the team is 12-34 or 50-14? If you're rooting regardless then implicitly you support the front office and coaching staff as well.

This is really a bizarre take.

Growing up you become a fan of a team. It takes a pretty low character person to then ditch that team when they have a few years in a row of not winning.

anyone cheering for this Bulls team to win a single game is grade A moron.


It's like they don't remember what being stuck in NBA mediocrity feels like. This upcoming draft is LOADED at the top, no excuse for the Bulls not doing everything in their power to secure as many lotto balls as possible.

This is the exact same shit that happened the year we got Rose. Bulls won a bunch of worthless games and morons like the ones celebrating this current win streak were all excited about the Bulls battle to try and get that last playoff spot. It was only because of a 1% chance that we got the #1 pick in that draft.


I always ask the morons the same question...what would you rather have, a low seed in the playoffs and a likely first round exit or 10 years with a franchise level talent? The short sightedness of these morons never ceases to amaze me.

You’re new to watching basketball so I’ll give this post a pass. But FYI - tanking doesn’t work in the nba. Never has and never will.

You high draft pick guys got it all wrong. The teams that are elite right now in the NBA are due to massive trades and FA signings. High picks are important but good teams can find other avenues to better themselves. This Bull team might just be one scorer short off the bench to maybe move up to a better than 41 win team. The offseason might than provide some other parts to the puzzle.

NEVER TANK!
