I agree with Zoom all out that we need to stop talking about Kobe, Gasol and whoever else and start appreciating what we are building. The Bulls, a very good team last year can only be better if healthy this year with Noah & Joe Smith being upgrades over PJ. Skiles said "Tyrus is still coming on, but Tyrus is, without question, better than he was." Not to mention that if Nocioni is healthy we'll be that much better.
But this team and a championship run will likely fall on the shoulders of Godon, Deng & Wallace. And it's great to see what coach Skiles is saying about Gordon. Gordon already one of the hardest workers in the league was praised by Skiles of all people. Skiles said that Gordon may have worked harder this summer than any player he can remember. That's saying something especially when Skiles played in the 80's/90's when the game was so called more physical.
Anyway, the point is that we need to resign Gordon and Deng and keep this thing together. We didn't get KG and I sure as hell don't want to dismantle the core and possibly most of the team for Kobe.
Deng & Gordon are going to have career years this year and I think Wallace with a headband and a 2nd year will be a little better than last year. It's up to Hinrich, Nocioni, Noah, Thomas, Sefolosha, & Smith to carry the rest of the burden and possibly get us a title this season.
great post, i agree with just about everything you said, we need to keep gordon/deng/hinrich together. we can win with what we have no need to trade away the core of our team fr one player. as the team gets older and older they get better and better and they arnt the baby bulls anymore, no need to trade away all the young talent.
good for ben gordon. after reading that, i hope we keep him. one day, he could be a 30 ppg kind of guy
Great post Edwin... you know I agree 100%.
