All Takes
LeBron James is arguably up there with Michael Jordan as one of the best players in history.
It's a no-brainer that LeBron has ended up becoming one of the best players in the history of the game. And arguing, you know, up there with Mike.
The 2010-2011 Bulls would have landed LeBron James if he hadn't chosen South Beach.
I signed with the Bulls, and we had enough cap space... for LeBron to make his decision, hopefully, to come to the Bulls... there was a good buzz around Chicago that he might come join us, too.
Tom Thibodeau's high-intensity practices and heavy minutes took a physical toll on the Bulls' stars.
I think, unfortunately, it ended up taking a toll on us... You've got a guy like D. Rose playing 42 minutes a night. He's also practicing three hours a day... I think there has to be this balance between preparation and game.
The Chicago Bulls would have won the 2012 NBA Championship if Derrick Rose hadn't gotten injured.
If D. Rose doesn't get hurt, I think we break through that year... We had a roster where we could play. I think we were like the number one or two defensive team in the league. We were top five in offense. I mean, we were a very complete team that year. And then, boom, Derrick Rose gets hurt. And it just... It took the air out of the balloon for us, you know what I mean? Because we all thought that was our year to win the whole thing.
