And a BIG one. But are single players the problem or groups inside the team? If there is a big problem inside the team it is important to solve it. Even through a trade? I'm curious about the changes Thibs will do. Reading about Cavs' defense dominates Bulls. This alone is a alarming signal.
This team's not playing like a Thibodeau-coached team. The players haven't 100% surrendered to Thibodeau. At least this is what I've been getting from what I've read/heard.
The Rose contract, knee injury and attitude change has had a chilling, crippling effect on the Bulls organization. Not sure if Rose is the type of guy you want to center your franchise around anymore. I hope this isn't the case.
Thibs doesn't seem like the same guy as last season. Less driven. Like he doesn't care as much. I wonder why. (I don't really, but you can guess why).
