Top 5 Bulls Players of All Time
1) Michael Jordan
* Need I say anymore? MJ changed basketball forever. Period. Not only did he bring the Bulls 6 championship rings over the 90’s, he also took a “quick break” to explore some hobbies. Well it didn’t work out that great, but that’s what makes Michael Jordan the greatest Bull, and basketball player of all time
2) Scottie Pippen
* Ah yes, good ol’ Scottie. Pip is undoubtedly the second best player in Bulls history. Not only did he almost take the Jordan-less Bulls to the finals in 95′, but many coaches say he’s the best all around forward in NBA history. He accepted his secondary role better than anyone could have, and literally created the saying about sports that Michael Jordan had Scottie Pippen, Kobe and Shaq..etc.
3) Dennis Rodman
* Although Rodman only played with the Bulls for three season, his impact will never be forgotten. Never before had they’re been such a prolific rebounder, especially coming into the twilight of his career. During his tenure with the Bulls, Rodman never averaged less than an astounding 14+ rebounds per game. And this guy was a generous 6’9″.
4) Derrick Rose
* In only his third season, there is no doubt Derrick stands among the 5 best Bulls early in his career. He singlehandedly took a mediocre team to the playoffs two years in a row with rookie coach Vinny Del Negro. Now, in his third year he is in the discussion for MVP of the league. His scoring jumps about 4ppg each year, which is amazing. I have no doubt Rose will move to at least number 3 of this list before his career is done.
5) Joakim Noah
* Noah is on his way to becoming the best center in Chicago Bull history. Considered a bust in his first year and a half with the Bulls, Joakim has blossomed into one of the top 3 centers in the NBA. He is already very far ahead of any Bulls center that has ever played, posting Dennis Rodman like rebounding numbers while being the defensive anchor of a tough Bulls defense. Before his career is done, mark my words he will be considered the best Bulls center of all time, and easily makes the top 5 Bulls players of all time.
