Blog a Bull, a Chicago Bulls community

Man, the Bulls are really active in talks at the deadline...this link has Tyrus Thomas stuff, Kirk Hinrich stuff and chatter about plenty of potential deals...(personally, I like the idea of grabbing Scola somehow, since he will be a RFA this summer)

Great piece by KD on Tyrus. The operative part that makes me want to cry: "But it's such a waste, isn't it? From the second pick in the draft to Al Harrington, three and a half years later? You had a talent, such a significant talent in Thomas, and you just wasted him. Just wasted him. Allowed yourself the chance to go, "no, it's him. Not us. He doesn't rebound. He takes too many jumpers. He didn't run the floor, there." No, he didn't rebound like he should. He did take too many jumpers. He didn't run the floor, there. There were lots of "there's." But he was also 20, 21, 22, and 23 years of age. He'd also dominate for stretches, and then have to sit for Andres Nocioni(notes), who didn't rebound and took too many jumpers. Whether Tyrus Thomas is traded tomorrow, or if he plays out the string, it hardly matters. His time as a Bull (and his NBA career; because players don't usually turn it around after such habits are drilled in) was wasted by this organization."

I voted..did you?

This seems to have been forgotten and worth noting since Issiah just got hired as a college coach
