"It's going to be great," Deng said of this season. "I think we're going to play as a team. We've got guys on the team who are very unselfish, and we're going to have to use that as a strength."

If that sounded like a possible dig at Gordon, it might have been.

Deng's ready to be back

That's the whiff I caught from that quote as well. Especially given the reports that

they fought over shots.

2. Put your Kirk in that box
3. Make some team open that box

Was that from a recent article? I've not heard about it.

Deng complained about not having enough plays drawn up for him at the beginning of the season, but that is a Vinny thing.

I thought Deng never had plays.

As for Vinny a lot of times when the Bulls played a team of one of my friends they’d always wonder what we were even doing offensively.

Hopefully no one will be as unselfish as Deng is during the 4th quarter. I’d like us to win a few games. Here’s to hoping Rose has some kind of spark of life in him and isn’t as bland as the rest of the team is sounding.

That's it.

I hate it when guys comment like that after not playing almost an entire season. The players that were on the floor did the best they could with what they had. That is the end of it. Deng can try to bring on utopia when he graces the basketball court again, but he needs to shut up about last season.

Interesting

At first I was inclined to agree with Deng, but your commentary changed my mind.

Well I always said, BG is the best bad shot maker.

Just why didn't Deng take the money early on?

He seems to want us all to think he isn’t a guy who is about money and is hurt by any accusations hinting at that, but has he said why he passed on that first deal if it wasn’t over money?

he wanted to support ben's decision obviously!

Of course Deng is unselfish

It’s hard to be selfish when you’re sitting on the bench injured.

How long into the season before....

The Bulls realize that 20.7 points on a great scoring efficiency is a valuable part of the team? Before or after the circus trip?

Andrew7 [to BG]: I wish I knew how to quit you!

2. Put your Kirk in that box

I'm anxious to see what he can do

He hasn’t really been out there playing in so long, I forgot that he was a potential all-star at one time. I’m hoping that he develops into the Derrick Rose’s James Worthy.

I love how he talks about being unselfished

Wasn’t he the guy that was supposedly jealous of Rose coming in and being the star?

Nothing like going bananas on a cliche pre-season remark.

we have nothing else to go bananas about

You're probably right

though someone should tell Deng that the boxed answer was “guys are working hard, some of us are going to have to step up blah blah blah” instead of implying there was any probably with selfishness that will suddenly be gone this year.
