Do the Bulls really need another piece??? This seems to be the golden question as of late. The Bulls have proved that they can win with the team they have. However, can they win the title? It seems that D. Rose believes that they can. Trade rumors don’t ever seem to fade away. As soon as we log on to Twitter, Facebook, Espn, etc. there are different rumors.  The rumors surrounding the Bulls always seem to involve D. Rose suggesting the Bulls bring a certain player. As a Bulls and D. Rose fan, I know D. Rose isn’t asking anyone for help. He wants to win the title with who he has around him. This is why LeBron isn’t Rose…

I do believe the Bulls are missing a piece…. But, I don’t believe that piece has to be a 5 star player. Would it have been great to have LeBron? Of Course, he could have played the first three quarters and then tagged in D. Rose to finish the game in the 4th…We all know LeBron has failed to appear in the 4th quarter…At least it seems like he goes missing..It would have also been great to get D. Howard.  The combo of Rose and Howard would have been great. Now, the rumors are Gasol coming to the Bulls. To me, this makes a lot more sense. Gasol is a very good player that would fit the Bulls. He hustles, can rebound, plays defense and can shoot. That is two aspects he brings to the table that Boozer doesn’t.

We know the Bulls can win, there is no doubt. But with players joining forces like we have seen in Miami, N.Y, and L.A, its time the Bulls make a move to match that. Rose has the supporting cast to win, but adding a piece to step up when he is injured or off would help extremely. Imagine a starting line up consisting of the following…Rose, Deng, Gasol, Noah, and….. It would be nice to have Rip stay healthy….but if not we can give this spot to Brewer. Miami who?????

I think we all agree, Boozer for Gasol? Bulls make it happen. Now!!!!!
