They could have played with Derrik Rose at the 1 Wade at the 2 Lebron at the 3 and Joakim Noah at the 4.
They would have won SEVERAL championships.

They still have time to win "several" with the Heat. Unless your counting them out from here on out.

Exactly. No one really thought they would get that far in the first year. I think they are ahead of schedule.

I don't think we will see that happen. If anyone goes, it will be Bosh, and they will get something good in return.

what? lebron wanted to play for the bulls rose didnt want anything to do with him
Almost a year ago, when NBA free agency got underway and seemingly the entire league was clearing out cap space for a realigning summer, everyone under the sun was making a sales pitch to LeBron James. Everyone wanted the King to rule their franchise. Every coach, every general manager, every owner, every fan and every […]

Trust me, Rose would welcome Lebron with open arms, even if it was to happen right now.

It wouldn't work. Rose, Wade, and LeBron all need the ball in their hands on the perimeter. They are all the same type players of different sizes.

bulls would never win with rose, lebrick and wade.
wade couldn't carry 1 choker to the title and he would have to carry 2.
rose in 4th quarter = 20% fg
lebrick in 4th quarter = 2ppg

boozer may be an above average rebounder (you're exaggerating by saying he's one of the best), but he's a ghost defensively

yeah, boy...those two really suck at basketball don't they. Are you on crack?
Rose was known as a closer all season long for the Bulls, he just ran out of gas late in the season. that and the Heat defense smothered him to oblivion.

Since you guys fall for all the theatrics, and the odds at Sportsbooks. Let me rephrase my post #11.
"I didn't think they would win in the first year, and I think they are ahead of schedule."
Just because the books say a team is favored to win it all, doesn't mean they are.

the refs didn't exactly help the mavs either, its just the mavs had the firepower to overcome the free throw differential. Bulls didn't.
Bulls needed a second creator at SG and they needed Boozer and Noah to be healthy, they didnt have that SG and boozer and noah weren't healthy which is why teams were able to smother Rose successfully. Rose is a great player but he can't exactly do everything himself. He needs someone to take the pressure off so he's better able to penetrate.

yeah all greats automatically win championships dont they.... oh wait, malone, barkley, ewing, iverson, baylor, and stockton never won and they never choked as badly as rose and lebrick.
rose is and always will be a choker. remember when he choked in college and cost memphis the national championship? no different in the pros.

oh please dude. you are so full of shit. Rose in his 3rd year led a team with under powered offense to the ECF and failed only because he was gassed and met a team capable of defending him, that's all. And why were they capable of defending him? Because the team had no body else who was an offensive threat. He'll be fine. He's not a "choker", he's a great player. His time will come. Bulls will make some moves to get him some help and teams will not be able to leave their man and collapse on Rose so easily any more.

and please don't be bringing up Memphis like it proves anything. He was a completely different player back then. Hell, he was a completely different player only LAST YEAR, under Vinnie D. This year under Thibs was his break out year as a super star. and you're bringing up Memphis...?

there's no excuse for missing free throws. But Wade missed some too. Sometimes people just miss free throws. Heat, as a team, missed a ton of them in the final game. Doesn't mean you necessarily choked.
I believe Rose is an 89% free throw shooter...so he'll miss some of them occasionally.
