I wouldn't be shocked to see them tank next year administratively, hoping to get everyone healthy and maybe making a fan placating run in the playoffs. It's going to be a grindy, Scott Skiles type of season next year.

There is not a damned thing wrong with people who are bull shitters.

Call me a meatball - whatever - but the Bulls need an "enforcer" type. Somebody to throw some bows and get an offense out of its rhythm when the opponent gets hot.

We should take it personally when the other team gets going - just like Jordan and Rodman did with their sneaky "nut taps".

Big Sexy was perfect in this role. I remember last year, all he did was elbow LeBron in the chest as he was finishing his jumper a few times, and he was off his shooting for the rest of the night (makes you flinch - okay, then he just started driving the lane and getting fouls, but. . .)

The Bulls didn't win titles because they had "enforcer types". They won because they had two of the greatest players in history and a decent supporting cast.

Like Peeps said, I'll take another superstar player over the supposed badass. Ask the '90s Knicks how that "enforcer" stuff worked out.

Yeah but there's no Jordan/Pippen in the league right now

Lebron/Wade is pretty close to that, I'd say.
