Quin

Hate Buck Showalter slightly less.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 29, 2012 -> 09:59 PM) I've gotta admit, this soxfan49 guy is rather impressive. Maybe I should take him under my wing? Make him exciting and likeable like I did quinarvy. QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Jun 29, 2012 -> 10:02 PM) Aw, I'm not likeable and exciting? Nope. Need more crazy. QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 29, 2012 -> 10:04 PM) I should've said more exciting and likeable. But I'm just bulls***ting. quinarvy is the only person here that understands the fact that you don't have to be a homer and still support your teams. It's hilarious, because I am a ridiculous homer at times. But more like a Hope-r. QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Jun 29, 2012 -> 10:05 PM) I think I'm the last thing from a homer, so maybe he and I will get along. Nah, f*** you.

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Jun 29, 2012 -> 03:06 PM) I just don't understand the decision to force a guy in as a PG who isn't a natural point, especially when the offensive development of your studly #1 overall pick largely depends on it. I thought we were talking about Teague and Rose for a second. But seriously, them taking Rivers indicates to me that they don't think Gordon will stay. Those two mesh horribly.

The Feathered Serpent is out for blood tonight.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 29, 2012 -> 02:53 PM) I eccho those sentiments. PS: Despite some rumors, my account was not hacked. That's what a hacker would say.

QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 29, 2012 -> 02:12 PM) You lost me at Austin Rivers being good

I feel like Omogrosso has been in our farm forever.

Deng not getting surgery is baffling.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 29, 2012 -> 12:08 AM) Ozzie was manager of the team; that's generally regarded as a pretty important job. The Sox didn't want Ozzie anymore. If they did, he'd still be here. So if it's so important, he's why the Marlins are failing, right?

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 28, 2012 -> 11:35 PM) English is gonna be successful in whatever he wants to do outside of basketball as well. Eh...as long as it doesn't involve math.

QUOTE (Rex Kicka** @ Jun 28, 2012 -> 11:12 PM) I just think its funny that to escape a country where "socialism" requires you to have health insurance, you want to move to Canada where there's no such thing as socialized medicine. Some people are just stupid.

Spurs drafting Denmon reinforces how I feel about him. Watch him thrive.

I can now say I've been a lab partner with an NBA player. That's neat. Now, to boo him because he's on the Pistons.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jun 28, 2012 -> 10:00 PM) Butler may as well be a rookie, its not like he played big minutes last year. As far as I'm concerned, we have two rookies on our roster right now. Except...he's not. He played last year. He's spent a year practicing with Thibs. He defended well against good players last year when he was in. He got to the line at a nice rate.

QUOTE (soxfan49 @ Jun 28, 2012 -> 09:56 PM) Once again, I'm not an NBA fan but I do watch some on a boring fall/winter night when there's no NHL, NCAA or NFL, but if the Bulls are going to be without Deng until November, Rose until March, and depending on Butler for big minutes, they might have a chance at a top 8 pick next June. No chance.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jun 28, 2012 -> 09:54 PM) There's just no way Rose can guard the best SG's in the nba, I don't care how good his vertical is. Guys will just be pump faking in his face daring him to jump. The second rookie is Jimmy Butler, who Bulls fan assume will take over the Ronnie Brewer role this upcoming year Jimmy Butler isn't a rookie. He also looked fine in his minutes last year.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jun 28, 2012 -> 09:38 PM) Rose ain't guarding the good SG's in the NBA, he's not tall enough... They'd just shoot right over him. His vertical (yes, I think he'll still have that vertical) and wingspan let him do that. He averages the same amount of blocks as LeBron. QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jun 28, 2012 -> 09:45 PM) He's only 19, which I love. He's quick, athletic and a ball handler which we sorely needed, which I also love. But now we have two rookies who need playing time and development time on our squad. Thibs isn't known for playing rookies much. Who's the second?

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jun 28, 2012 -> 09:34 PM) We'd have a small back court if Teague and D.Rose were on the court at the same time...he's only 6'2" I heard Barton or Lamb would have been better picks Rose has the skills to guard SGs. But another thing: Teague could be a very poor version of Rose. That means we can run similar sets.

QUOTE (RZZZA @ Jun 28, 2012 -> 09:30 PM) An inefficient point guard? Bleh... If Teague develops, you go with a 2 PG offense or just ship him out for draft picks. I take this all day every day over Tyshawn Taylor. Now, trade Watson/Brewer for 2nd rounders. Still some talent to be had (Miller would be amazing)

Love this pick. The good SGs all got taken.

I love this pick. Should be able to trade Watson/Brewer/Korver for 2nd rounders or retain them.

That scared me for a minute.

Poor Dan Johnson. He'd be so much better up here.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 28, 2012 -> 02:46 PM) Listen. I'm not going to make this warning more then once. If people want to talk at TalkBulls they can, if they don't, they don't have to. This thread is open for discussion of all NBA related things (Bulls or Non Bulls). Anymore discussion or this self moderation, everyone go here, needs to be cut-out. Soxtalk is what it is and it has great sports discussion (not just baseball). If people want to talk about the Bulls in this thread, then they are 100% entitled to do so (and no one should tell them otherwise). I think Jason was hacked guys. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 28, 2012 -> 05:45 PM) The cap makes it so much more difficult in that league. Plus 1/2 the size rosters mean fewer players can be dealt in the first place. And no real minor league system.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 28, 2012 -> 05:33 PM) With a week to go in a long lost season? Negotiating with the total approval of his current team that didn't want him? KW prolly held a party praying Ozzie would negotiate with the Marlins. I have the ultimate defense: A world series title. Case closed. There were leaks that he was negotiating with the Marlins in July. And World Series title means he can f*** over the team? Cool.
