Luol Deng ready to defy trainer by fulfilling national duty
Lu continues to make friends and influence people through his dedication to the team... Unfortunately, that team is not the Chicago Bulls. (Hat tip to RealGM) Seriously, is it so hard at this point, when he reportedly hasn't even tested the leg, to just say something generic like he hopes to play but will have to see how things go with the injury? (Note, however, there are no quotes from Lu, so maybe it was more of an internal battle for him than the article implies...)
