MJ had similar problems with the Bulls and it took them awhile before it took off.
Honestly, I don't blame LJ but it is something he is always compared against Jordan with as Jordan is considered more "loyal" for sticking it out with the Bulls until they finally got Phil Jackson and surrounded him with a decent squad.
Kind of. They had the 11th pick, the 9th pick, the 8th pick, then #8 and #10 in the same draft (were able to acquire Grant and Pippen), the 11th pick, #6, and then after that, it was late picks every year.
Ultimately, they had 5 bites at the top 10 apple and hit huge on 2 of them.
