Horford has wanted to move back to the 4 for years now....so the Hawks sign every undersized power forward they can find. Makes sense.

First off, it was the Bulls media/organization that played with everybody emotions, not rose. Guys get "medically cleared" all the time, he still felt he wasn't a 100% so why even step out there? The Bulls weren't contending this season anyway. Yea Noah and Robinson played hurt, they also aren't franchise players that just tore they're ACL. He had nothing to gain by playing when he's not 100% just to appease a lot of yall dumbass fans who don't think he's mentally tough.

He brought it on himself so let im do his part and shut people up
Durant, Russ, Harden, Ibaka.
Just stop right there. You don't get credit for guys you draft and give away unless you want to list the Suns as the greatest team of Draft experts ever.
And you listed Adams who was laughed at by his own new teammates.
lol ) and Roberson who has done what, exactly?
Update your definitions bud. Those draft picks from a few years back have dried up. And they barely get credit for Harden, given they gave him away within 3 years for no reason.

Iggy sounding like he actually wanted to sign that contract
Kings pulled the offer because we weren't tryna be used as leveraged

What do you mean he had nothing to gain? They had a chance to win a title and yea the Bulls organization was wrong but Rose played a part in it too.Just because DRose is the franchise player doesn't mean that he needs to sit back and watch his team struggle when he's medically cleared to play. I'm under the impression DRose and his family make a decision to sit out the whole season from jump. All he had to do was say he wasn't gonna play this season, that would've solved everything.

Was it you Allen that said over and over, why don't the Thunder call up the Magic and offer Harden and Ibaka for Dwight, and get that dude in town with Durant/Russ right here and now?
And the Magic would have taken that deal too.
Instead Presti sends Harden in conference, and now Dwight joins him and OKC got to deal with that.
Dwight/Collison (or a stretch 4 replacement)/Durant/Thabo/Russ would have been BULL ****!!!!!
But outside of here, I never saw a single mention of Harden/Ibaka to the Magic for D12.
Yes, although, with that I theorized that there was no way Dwight would ever, ever leave Russ/KD high and dry - but uh, he just left the Lakers so...I don't know
..maybe OKC would have got caught with their pants down. (although possible they get a ring out of it anyway).Was it you Allen that said over and over, why don't the Thunder call up the Magic and offer Harden and Ibaka for Dwight, and get that dude in town with Durant/Russ right here and now?

He would have had a chance to win, and not the expectations of LA on him tho. And he would have easily been happy with two young guns to help carry the burden for the next X amount of years. Might cost him a little less money, but he would have had a chance to make a run at Shaq's 4 rings at least. (in theory) And defensively, that team would have been unreal with their speed/length. He would have had it made out there.

They haven't played yet so none of them have done anything, other than summer league which Adams played even against Drummond. Roberson averaged 11 rebounds from the 3/4 spot at Colorado and figures to be Thabo replacement although more athletic and unable to shoot the 3 yet. Jerrett is going to be a Novak type. I was initially unhappy with the latter 2, but they killed in summer league and since they will be spending all season in Tulsa, I'm not mad. Only other people I would have accepted/preferred at the 29/32 was Tony Mitchell, Livio Jean Charles, Mike Muscula, James Ennis.Durant, Russ, Harden, Ibaka.

You still can't name anyone whohas drafted better than OKC in the last decade. Aldrich was a bust, but we actually drafted Eric Bledsoe and Quincy Pondexter that yr and traded them because they wanted Cole (allegedly Bennett, the owner forced this move) and would rather have a veteran than more young players so they signed Ivey. Oops there no doubt.
But the drafting and/or player development is top notch. Need to work on keeping them though.
Windmill and 360 dunks in pregame then go put a suit on and sitback down before game time while all his teammates are limping, bleeding, throwing up in trash cans, and taking pain killer shots to play and he is by even his own account 100% healthy physically, just not "mentally."
