Dear Fred,

Your ability to steer this team within striking distance of 11th place in the conference is remarkable.

Thank you again for continued success this season, and best wishes for negligible achievements for the rest of this year.

I mean... you don’t even know if the Bulls young guys are developing this year. Kinda hard to take your input on the team too seriously after that, ya know?


I know Dunn and the rookie are playing well. So are Portis and Mirotic. That's cool. But that's different than celebrating the record. The record shouldn't be celebrated.

The record is a product of what he had to coach for the first 23 games. No one wins with that particular roster. No one.


Its the same fallacious line of reasoning that you consistently use to suggest that Kyrie Irving is a loser. His first 3 years he was subjected to playing for the most dysfunctional franchise in the league. Couple that with having the worst collection of players around him and there was no way he was winning anything. Winning 33 games in year 3 with that collection of bums was a miracle in of itself.

There is no way anyone could assess his ability to win as a player from watching that team play. If anything the fact that won 33 of the 71 games in which he participated would suggest that he is a guy you can win with.

You have to factor in the respective rosters in each instance.

I want the Bulls to lose. This is actually messing me up to see them win a few games. I actually would have been content to see them win only 10 games this year. Looks like they will end up somewhere between 32-35 wins barring any trades. That stinks.

Going from 3-20 to 18-28 should be celebrated. It’s an impressive turnaround.

Blowing an 18 point 4th quarter lead shows he's right up there with Brett Brown
