Top 10 Chicago Bulls After Jordan and Pippen Left
In June of 1998 the Chicago Bulls won their sixth championship of the decade and finished their second three-peat. A few months later, Michael Jordan and Scottie Pippen, the icons who were the key elements of the dynasty were gone.
Since the 1998-1999 season, Chicago has seen a mass amount of players come and go. Some were drafted then traded to get a veteran who could help the team. The veteran retired after a season or two or moved on after failing to bring the bulls to a winning season. We all know how the roster played musical names in the early 2000′s.
Even though the team went through a long rebuilding period, there was still enough solid players to form a top ten, especially since the team has been to the playoffs five of the last six years.
This top 10 includes Bulls players from the 1998-1999 season to the 2009-2010 season. I would like to consider Carlos Boozer or Kyle Korver, but they haven’t played a game as a Bull. With this said, lets get to the Top 10 Bulls After Jordan and Pippen Left.
Miller returns to the West
The 12 year veteran is returning to the western conference after a year and a half hiatus as a Chicago Bulls. Before being traded to the windy city, Miller played for the Sacramento Kings for five and a half years.
Kerr dominates Paxson in poll
Last week when Steve Kerr resigned as the general manager of the Phoenix Suns,because he wasn’t going to get rehired, I pondered the idea of Kerr coming back to Chicago to replace John Paxson as the Bull’s Vice President of Basketball Operations.
I asked the question to you, who would be a better for the Bulls, Kerr or Paxson. Kerr dominated Paxson, getting 36 of the 52 votes. I wonder if Kerr would beat Gar Forman, like he did Paxson.
Top Ten Free Agent Options for the Chicago Bulls Recap
For the past three or four weeks, Bullshome.com has listed the top ten free agent options for the Chicago Bulls. It has been fun. Many have complained about the choice for number one and number two, but I am sticking to my opinion. Since the countdown took so long to go through, it is only right for a recap.
10 Two Way Tie Between- Rudy Gay and John Salmons
Salmons was traded away by the Bulls at the February trade deadline in order to dump off contracts. He went to Milwaukee and helped them earn a six seed in the playoffs. Before he came they were on the outside looking in. Rudy Gay is a young talented player with limited leadership skills. Gay is on the verge of becoming a superstar but needs to play on a team besides the Memphis Grizzlies where he is the main attraction, because he shouldn’t be on any team. Both players are respectable second options and great role players.
Someone else thinks Lebron is over rated for a spot on the Bulls
I put Lebron James as the number two option for the Chicago Bulls during free agency. As I re-think the situation, maybe he should move up a little bit to four or even five, behind the combo deal of David Lee, Brad and Mike Miller at three, Dwyane Wade at four and Ray Allen at five.
He has all the ability in the world individually, but can’t help his team win.
The writers at Bleacher Report agree with me.
What if Lebron James is Joe Johnson, just a better athlete. All season both of these players put up great numbers and helped there team get to the playoffs in great positions. Lebron helped the Cavaliers get the number one seed and Johnson helped Atlanta get a three seed. Lebron did better because he is a better athlete, but they both crack under pressure in the playoffs.
James might get signed to the Bulls and get them a championship in a year and then they get to the finals a few years and then struggle. The Bulls don’t need a drama queen, they need a blue collar athlete.
