first bulls pick doesn't really mean much.
Deng has 2 all stars as well. He is the 4th all time in points scored as a Bull, and top 5 in most other categories.

It kinda does IMO, that and 2x all star, 4x all nba defensive 1st teams and 2x al nba defensive 2nd teams. Sloan was the first "original bull" picked by the bulls during the bulls expansion draft so that obviously has something to do his place in the bulls history.

Sloan has more games and minutes played than Deng. Around the same points, more rebounds, would've had more steals if the league had counted steals before 1974 (peaked at 2.1 per game) and Sloan has more allocades.
Sloan > Deng.

How much further up the list could Deng have gone if he stayed in a bulls uniform for the rest of his career?

Deng doesn't come anywhere close as top 3.
Wouldn't necessarily agree with the order. But all the above represent important names in Bulls history worth discussing in such a thread. Would agree that asserting top 3 is ludicrous.
Listing 5th in steals is, at best, naive; for Sloan, if steals had been counted throughout his NBA career, would clearly be ahead of Deng.
Deng's good and he plays both ends but he's not the 3rd best Bull.

Deng has no case for top 3-5. I doubt he's even Top 10 all-time for the Bulls.

Essentially this. Deng is one of my favorite Bulls of all time, but yeah, what FC said.
