Anytime you have to abandon your game and play the other teams game... it's not a plus. They're better at a traditional game than we were.. We're better at a stretch 4 with Love in. We don't have that. That's why I'm worried.
Complete nonsense. The game we will play with or without Love is continually shoving Lebron/Irving down the throats of people until they say "fuck it" and start shrinking the floor leaving space for our perimeter shooters to go HAM. Love fits into that strategy but he's not the only player on the team that can light it up from 3.

Yeah and we shove Kyrie and Lebron down their throat b/c you have to respect JR and Loves perimeter shooting.. That's not there now.

Love/Smith are not the only perimeter shooters on the team. Again, not having them, especially Love will have a negative impact but not enough to give the Bulls a snowballs chance in hell of winning the series. Cavs in 5, max.

Rondo, Westbrook, Irving, Curry, Conley, Lilliard, Butler, CP3, Wall, Lowry. That's 10 off the top of my head and I don't feel like actually looking any up. The reality is, Rose is a mediocre PG in the NBA at best.

I would probably even put Walker and I. Thomas above him. That's 12. Get real.

You're fucking nuts...

gtfooh lol. Only thing any of those guys have on Rose is reliability due to injury. As far as skills go, your list is laughable.

If your point is Rose at this point right now coming back from injury.. than I'll agree he's probably 10-15 pg in the league.. but a healthy Derrick Rose.. no way.

If we are factoring injury into account, I could find D-league players that I would rather have on my team than freaking Rose. He's trash; he needs to go to China already.

I'd rather talk about Harden rather than Rose. At least one of these players belongs in the NBA where the other is lucky to have a contract longer than 10 days.

If this is indeed the case, how ironic would this be considering the Celtics were supposed to be making a full court press to sign Love in the offseason? Not saying he's going anywhere but one of their mediocre players could've made their most coveted free agent target damaged goods.

Defensively, I would take Aaron Craft over Rose. Offensively its not really close. However, Craft is a D-league player with a slim to none chance of ever making an NBA team whereas Rose is seen as a top 5 PG. The delusion is real.

I hope some positive news comes out about our guys soon. Amaximum of a 1 game suspension for JR would be great, and if Love missed only a couple games, I'd be ecstatic. I'm not as optimistic as several of you in wiping the floor with the Bulls sans Kevin Love.

I know you are a straight retard but I think the Bulls would happily trade Rose for the rights to Bron's son if it were at all possible.

Yea, without love I think it makes the cavs shoot more jumpers, because the bulls bigs will be able to stay in the pain more, and that doesn't usually equal success in the playoffs.

I'm assuming without Love and Smith the Cavs will move LeBron to 4 and start Kyrie, Shump, Jones, LeBron, and Mozgov.
That's a far cry from Kyrie, JR, Lebron, Love, and Mozgov.
