Hey guys,
In the 90's the Chicago Bulls have won 6 NBA Titles during the days of Michael Jordan and next year will mark 25 years since Jordan won his very 1st NBA Championship and ever since the 2010's, the Chicago Bulls have made the NBA Playoffs They had the squad and in 2011, Derrick Rose became the youngest player to become MVP and during that year, they made the Eastern Conference Finals for the 1st time in 13 years since the Jordan Era, but with victories, also comes playoff disappointments When Derrick Rose got hurt in Game #1 in 2012, the Bulls have not been the same since, but this year 2015 marked D-Rose's 1st Playoff Appearance in 3 years Let's take a look @ the Bulls record against not only Lebron James in the playoffs, but also, other teams that have eliminated the Bulls The Miami Heat def. the Bulls in the 2011 Eastern Conference Finals 4-1 The Philadelphia 76ers def. the Bulls in Round 1 of the 2012 NBA Playoffs 4-1 The Heat def. the Bulls in the 2013 Eastern Conference Semi-Finals 4-1 The Washington Wizards def. the Bulls in Round 1 of the 2014 NBA Playoffs 4-1 2015, Lebron James have once again def. the Bulls 4-2 in the 2015 Eastern Conference Semi-Finals Ever since the Bulls traded Carlos Boozer for Pau Gasol, they were on a role, but even with Gasol's injuries, the Bulls started to lose their focus and now, here's my question to all of you: How should the Bulls improve? What will it take for them to def. Lebron James in the Eastern Conference Playoffs? and what will it take for them to not only make the NBA Finals, but also, win the championship? Will the Bulls get rid of Tom Thibodeau for another coach? also, should the Bulls re-sign Derrick Rose, Jimmy Butler, Taj Gibson and Joakim Noah? But what about Pau Gasol? What's his next role? Those are the Questions! Please share your thoughts on all of this Well I talked to one guy and he told me that the Bulls needs to be more aggressive and also, not to be frustrated and stay focus and there was somebody on fb that said this: No the referee wasn't a factor tonight. Bulls just did not show up. In other games of the series there were questionable decisions. From a basketballing view I'm optimistic for the future. Mirotic, Rose, McDermott, and Butler who'll hopefully resign have still have plenty of years left . Hopefully Rose can stay healthy. I think a major problem is rebounding and shooting and perimeter defense. I think we should look at size inside as in the series we made Thompson look like a superstar in the series and we couldn't buy a bucket at times. Shooting problem hopefully be solved by Mirotic improving and McDermott getting more opportunities. Problem we have is Noah who is limited offensively and wasn't his usual defensive self, Gasol is getting older although is still effective but is getting to 36 which means his legs can't last much longer. Do you agree with that? ![]() ![]() Here's Game #3 with Derrick Rose NAILING the Game Winning Buzzer Beater in Chi-Town |

I'm glad Cleveland won. I was surprised they blew out the Bulls because the Bulls usually play good at home. The Bulls didn't even show up LOL. I know the Bulls fans were pissed. I hope the Wizards win against Atlanta but I won't be surprised if Atlanta wins because the Wizards don't play smart. They're always shooting a lot of jumpshots and their defense sucks LOL. I hope Cleveland can get to the finals and win because the Cavs fans would be very excited if that happened. The Cavs have never won a championship and it would be great for the city if they won one.

I see the Bulls fired Tom Thibodeau and replaced him with Iowa college basketball coach Fred Hoiberg who was a former NBA player. What a joke LOL. They should've kept Tom. His playoff record with the Bulls wasn't that good but he's a good coach. I heard he didn't get along with the Bulls general manager Gar Forman.
