What the "F" are the Bulls doing?

I'm a Bulls fan.

Always have been since 1991 even through the dark days of the post championship era. It's really frustrating that the Bulls is taking too long to decide on deals that could make the team instant contenders after they swing a trade.

And the deals that matter were so little (although the Eddy Curry deal was the best to date in the Paxson-Forman era), Bulls got Tyson Chandler, Tyrus Thomas (for LaMarcus Aldridge a head scratcher), deal with Ben Wallace. The Bulls also let the Kobe Bryant trade rumor linger on in 2007-08 that it affected the players mentally thus missing the play-offs again at that time. It's frustrating generally. No bold moves. It's always piece by piece, little by little.

I really can't blame Coach Tom for fielding Rose,Noah and company a bit longer, with so little talent to choose from who can blame the man? I mean Miami have constructed their team that any number they call can produce for their team. A lot of these teams have that luxury, why not the Bulls? My Bulls?

Just this draft for instance Brooklyn let go of the trigger and got themselves a win now championship caliber team, No it's not a big 3 anymore, it's a big 5. While I still believe the Bulls are still competitive I wonder how long, the talent everywhere is growing while the Bulls have stayed foot.

Kevin Garnett and Paul Pierce instantly brings championship pedigree to the upstart Brooklyn Nets their presence solidifies the Nets line-up even more, gone is Gerald Wallace on and off plays replaced by a steady Paul Pierce not to mention a huge upgrade with Garnett for Evans and Humphries. Bulls now find themselves battling these teams: Heat, Pacers, Nets and Knicks for East supremacy.

It's frustrating really knowing the Bulls have been dormant while these teams are adding talent by the day. Worst, we Bulls fans might someday wake up to see the team once more struggle just to make it to the second round.

Bulls had a huge opportunity before, some 2 years ago before Derrick injured his ACL and if the Bulls don't do anything even with the brilliance of their coach and their players the window might be closing and it's getting fast.

Wake Up Bulls!
