Listened for like an hour today. Didn't read any of this thread so I apologize if it's been covered, but I'd just like to say: It makes me feel a lot better about my positions that Larry shared all or most of the opinions I have been complaining about Bulls fans having.
Mainly that the window is closed and the Heat are unbeatable and it's time to blow it up. It's a basketball-retarded thought and his reasoning was even worse. He repeatedly whined like a little bitch screaming for attention that we have seen the best this team has to offer and he's SICK and TIRED 1st round exits and not being a legit contender. He said we saw their best shot when they lost to Miami in 5. He said they struggled to get to 50 wins (

) AND THAT IS NOT GOOD ENOUGH DAAAN!!
This is inexplicably fucking stupid for several reasons.
- We saw them give it a legit shot ONE fucking time. That's why I get impatient with fans that are so damn impatient. It's disingenuous, not to mention really fucking stupid and inaccurate, to suggest this core has failed in multiple chances to win a NBA Finals. If Durant or LeBron get hurt in Round 1 their teams don't make the Finals either. It's that simple.
- The Heat are far from unbeatable. It's unlikely Ray gives them much more than Mike Miller did. They are still embarrassingly small up front. Just look what Roy Hibbert did to them and then imagine if they had any athletic swing men to compete with LeBron(sorry 312, but your boy Granger is a role player like I've been saying all season. He's the offensive version of Deng, except not as good)
- There's been ONE first round exit since Rose took the Leap and we've started thinking titles sooner rather than later. That was this season because their superstar got hurt. Woulda happened to any team. This would be Larry's stupidest reasoning yet for being pessimistic if it wasnt for the next one.
- This team struggles to win 50 games this year.

Why didn't Dan Bernstein, Mr. NBA, point out how ridiculously stupid this reason was for being pessimistic? They only played 66 games. By finishing 50-16 they had the best record in the NBA and a winning % equal to 62-20 for a full season. But you would sound a lot more ridiculous saying you're sick and tired of 62 win seasons.
Larry Holmes is basketball-retarded. And please don't take offense to that anybody. I mean it literally.
