Speaking of Wade, was glad to see this from him after the game:

Ugh! That was depressing.

Seems like neither one of them are happy with the Bulls or their teammates:

And I was roundly slammed when I said I thought Wade would regret going to the Bulls. Seems like he may not even last a season there. Hopefully, he does not opt to go ring chasing with BronBron next year. Wade in a Cavs jersey just seems desperate on his part.

This is getting real ugly.

Rajon Rondo tweeted out a rebuttal to Butler and Wade with a stinging indictment of Butler and Wade. Wade then responded to Rondo ripping him.

This is beyond disfunctional and have to think major changes are coming, including Hoiberg getting canned.

I wonder if Riley is going to tweet "Miss me yet?"

I was roundly criticized on this board at the time when I said the Bulls made two big mistakes signing Wade and Rondo. They instead should have gone young, traded Butler and started a complete rebuild...they'll probably do that this off-season, but in the meantime they just wasted a season.

Wade was a great player in his prime, but he's pretty far removed from that now. He's nothing more now than a high volume scoring guard that can't defend or hit a 3.

Jimmy and to a lesser degree DWade and the Bulls organization overall were taking major heat from 670 The Score pretty much all day over multiple shows. The consensus is that the Bulls are in that situation where a blow up the team scenario is appropriate and sooner than later to take advantage of the '17 draft pool and trading Jimmy would be the first move. When/if the Bulls turn it around with the present team, Jimmy would be past his prime.

They did get pretty personal with Jimmy - pretty obvious that Noah and Rose were far from pals and admirers of JB, but the The Score talent referenced over and over that if the public knew of the real Jimmy "going all the way back to college they would not be blindly fans of his" - paraphrasing. Went on to say imply that both Rose and Noah kept him from getting into major trouble when he first got to the Bulls.

While I enjoy the Score, and I do think to some degree they are right that Jimmy may not always be the best teammate, I have noticed some of their personalities (Dan Bernstein in particular) like to use the "if you knew what I knew" line to discredit. I'm not saying Jimmy is a saint, but I don't remember much trouble surrounding him while he was here.

That Bulls franchise is a mess, though I suspect the problems are at the top. They've now failed at rebuilds centered around the Baby Bulls, Derrick Rose, and Jimmy. Shipping him to Boston for draft picks wouldn't fix their front office. After all, these are the guys that thought Rajon Rondo was a good idea. And honestly, was anything Wade said wrong? Poor coaching, shot selection, and effort seems to be the Bulls' way of operations.

Jimmy and D Wade don't start last night in a loss to Miami. Well, that should fix the problem.

If I'm the Bulls, I am looking to trade Butler. He's a very good player, but not a good enough one to build a team around.
