Season of attrition. Hope they take it easy with Taj as well. Can Butler play the 4 at all?
On the J.R. Smith bandwagon until otherwise advised.
Someone tweeted that Taj has a high ankle sprain
Anyone know if that’s as bad for basketball players as it is for football?
Sadly, my self worth is almost entirely based upon the outcome of the previous night's Bulls game.
bad.
not sure how long it last, but the big issue is its easy to re-injure.
Let us cavort like the Greeks of old! You know the ones I mean.

no ligament damage though...
these injuries tend to be worse for football players.
it can be worse
Ankle injuries are more prominent among NBA players than they are NFL players. Reason being NBA players place more emphasis on their feet and ankles when it comes to cutting but NFL players hold a low base in a squat position which is why knee injuries happen more for NFL players than NBA players.

Is Scalabrine the backup power forward now?
Korver!
Back in the doghouse with you!
I guess Rick James is the back up pg.
This game could be ugly. Good thing it’s Charlotte at home.

Yeah, but I would think Thibs would opt for a smaller lineup with Lu at pf

JOMER! JOMER! JOMER!
Look
I didn’t want to offend anyone by saying the "f" word or generalizing my statement to any particular sex by saying "gays" or lesbians" or "bi’s" so "homos" is the most "politically correct" term. I’m just trying to be more tact in a tactless blog.

our depth is getting hurt now.
This is getting ridiculous for sure.
Korver!

dude, the bulsl are not alone
injuries are gonna happen throughout this whole season.
As an example:
DwainPrice Dwain Price
Mavs forward Dirk Nowitzki will miss four games with a sore right knee. He won’t play again until Jan. 29 against the Spurs.
So yeah, this season has been a mess

The Final Word on Cleveland
Their paper posted a “best-of” list and the coter’s choice for best bakery was a Panera or something like that.
Cleveland sucks so hard now that LeBron left and put good bakeries out of business.

It's all meant to happen
Thibs will finally realize Jimmy Butler is worth more than garbage minutes.
True that
I’m curious to see him in non-garbage time performance.

he played well in pre-season too against IND (what pre-season there was to play)

whoops.
I just haven’t been caring about things. Oh well. Maybe will do game preview of other game later.

it'll be odd to watch a mediocre bulls team tonight
after having been spoiled the last 3 years. but i have a feeling thibs’ discipline will make this team overachieve. and good luck to our bench guys who will be seeing serious minutes. it can only help us as the season progresses
No Noah,Taj, JL3, or Rose

And Thibs said, Let there be three's, and Deng shot threes
And Deng saw the three's, that they were good
And didn't shoot long two's anymore
