This franchise doesn?t seem to have much history other than Michael Jordan era. Hopefully, with the promising rookies that were drafted in this year draft, they can add a little something more to this franchise. Btw, nice job All-Star.

 

1991-92: 67 -15 .817

2000-01: 15- 67 .183

That's funny...AHAHA :laughs:

 

Thread is stickied. And damn, where the hell did you come up with all that stuff? Pretty cool to see it all.

Anyways,very nice job All-Star and Avery. It's cool to see all the history of this franchise.

 

Wow looking at that makes me almost a little afraid what would have happened to our franchise had we not drafted Jordan? The Bulls would probably be out of the NBA or in a different city right now had it not been for Jordan's success in the 90's I heard he is playing bball regularly again mabye a come back will happen soon anyway Jordan did a lot for this franchise even out side of numbers.

 

Looking for a certain game

What up tho er'body. Need to know if there are any die hard fans who were dedicated enough to record any of the Chicago Bulls 1991/92 Play-off games? If so, I was wondering if there's some way I could get a hold of that tape, to make a copy. If not, would there be any place I could go (on the net or at a store) to get it. Please hit me back a.s.a.p. this is real important. Thanx and much luv.

 

hey don't forget we had George "Ice Man" Gervin on our team! And one of the maybe top 20 Centers of all-time Artis Gilmore. Oh and don't forget about Norm Van Lier . one of our best Point Guards ever! hahaha okay, you are right, we don't have much history. But let's not ever forget the Jordan years!

 

Don't forget to add Ben Gordon to Sixth man of the year awards. Great post though. Thanks for going through all of this to post the Bulls History.

Well the Bulls almost got Magic Johnson, but they lost a coin flip to the LA Lakers.

um... chicago is still a big market they wouldn't have moved anywhere

 

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting babybulls:</div><div class="quote_post">um... chicago is still a big market they wouldn't have moved anywhere</div>
Does not matter how big a market it is if the team is not successful a city will not pay to see a team that flounders, and lose on regular bases. The Magic play in Orlando a relatively large well populated area yet are being talked about in a possible move because they have not been getting to product on the court the last couple years since Shaquille left, and the attendance is down. Sure a big market team is always a prime place for stars to go to, but had Jordan not brought the immediate impact he did to the city and the team who knows what might have happened which is the point I was basically trying to make when I posted that...more than a year ago.

 

Bulls have never been in danger of moving. Yes they had some pretty average years, but if you look at attendance numbers theres never been a year where the Bulls weren't near the top or at the top.
