Ben's record just an after-thought
Gotta love the Chicago media and the Bulls organization. Ben breaks Scottie's record, surely it's posted on the Bulls web site right...uhhh no. Surely the beat writers had a nice lil story about it...negative. Surely our top-notch broadcast team made special mention of it...not so fast.
A two lil measly paragraphs in KC's lil blog was all it got. Nothing from Hanley, nothing from Jackson, one sentence from McGraw.
Ben really is the Rodney Dangerfield of the city of Chicago, let alone this team. Who knows, maybe the ATL loss de-emphasized the feat...in any event, I have a sinking feeling in my gut that if Kirk would've broken the record (which the papers started picking up on the story last year when it was noticed that he was close), there would've been a parade at Grant Park.

Would you want to come back to this?
I bet he can’t wait to get away from this organization

it's not really an important record
but I guess the test will be when “Kirk Hinrich: starting 2 guard” breaks it next year.

true
but how many times does a member of the top 50 players of all time get his record broken? It would be nice to see him get some type of recognition.

It's like we'll have
Beno Udrih playing the SG!
Awesome!

It is a huge accomplishment but,
Scottie is more of a versatile player, and BG is more of a shooter and scorer. it’s a big thing to break a record, but I mean come on.. Bulls haven’t won anything since the post-Jordan era. So, it got the recognition it deserved.
What happens when Kirk comes back?
