Sarcastic putdown to people who make stupid arguments. The only stupid thing I see is using a sarcastic comment, it adds absolutely nothing to the discussion. No one ever said anything close to what he said.

Actually someone did say that, that's why this argument got started in the first place.

Wow I need to spell it out ok
, the implication in that sentence is that the Bulls losing Rose is a bigger deal than the Spurs losing Manu or the Celtics losing Garnett because apparantly losing Manu or Garnett doesnt hurt your title shots but losing Rose does. That is incorrect.
Ill give the fact that the Bulls would probably not even have made it past Boston (if barely) without Rose because theyre offense relies on him a bit much. So in that sense it hurts them more. But as far as titles aspirations go being hit from that is no different from the events mentioned above.
The Bulls have however been exceptionally unfortunate in losing Noah aswell for the game today while already having a Deng whose not 100 percent.

Ofc it hurts Boston and the Spurs a LOT too, I will never contest that, it is a no-brainer and their title aspirations were cut short, but in my opinion, losing Rose was a bigger hit, because they were centered around him. The Celtics still had Rondo, Pierce and Allen. The Spurs had Duncan and Parker.

But its the same as far as title aspirations are concerned. And thats the point. I already said it hurts the bulls more. Your just replying to me what I said already. So what?
If your not winning the championship winning a playoff series or 2 in the larger scheme of things is moot.

There have always been some key injuries but the amount of injuries this season is just absurd...

Knicks are cursed.
Davis, Lin, Shumpert. That's pretty much all their best backcourt players.
