Hinrich likely out for Bulls series; Watson tweets Rose wins MVP; Boozer's MRI shows turf toe

The biggest news to break today is that Kirk Hinrich is listed as doubtful for the Hawks/Bulls series.   The Hawks had little chance prior to Kirk getting hurt, and now that they’ll be calling on Jamal Crawford or Jeff Teague to play 100% of their PG minutes things are about to get really ugly. Quite... Read more »

Trade deadline thoughts, a day after

Yesterday, I discussed my mixed emotions on the Bulls lack of a move.   The right move may not have been on the table, but the predeadline comments by beat reporters about the new CBA and saving money still bring back scary thoughts for a team I hope will finally be willing to pay the...

Bulls fortunate to be playing the Wizards, escape with win

If the Bulls were playing a quality opponent, or even a bad opponent on an average night, they would have lost this game.   They came out flat in the final quarter, scoring just just two points over nine and a half minutes from the 10 minute mark to the 35 second mark.   However... Read more »

Bulls survive Arenas, play lousy basketball, but get the win

I’m guessing that Tom Thibodeau wasn’t handing out victory cigars in this one, in fact, I’m pretty certain he was ripping the team a new one in the locker room after this game, because they were fortunate to get a win playing so poorly.   All that said, you never really felt the outcome of this...

Bulls vs Wizards 7pm on WGN - The return of Kirk

Much like when Jordan returned to the court as a Wizard, I expect Hinrich’s return as a Wizard to be similarly dramatic.  Probably encompassing a 10 minute standing ovation where Kirk will have to stop and give a speech afterwards. Okay, the drama probably won’t be quite the same, but I expect that he’ll generally... Read more »

Best of the Bulls [post Jordan edition]

So I brought you the bust-a-bulls earlier, but what’s the best of the best of the Bulls look like from the past dozens seasons? In sportscenter style, not appearing on this list?   Ben Wallace – 06/07, I thought you were a waste then even if the fruits of your disruptive, negative energy didn’t fully show... Read more »

The Bust-a-Bulls

Stole the idea from realgm, but it got me to thinking, what’s the worst team you can put together for the Chicago Bulls?   Rules, your total team salary must equal at least 60 million.   You must have a combined total of at least 410 starts on the roster.  Every player must played in at least...

What if the Bulls could take back Hinrich or Gordon? You in?

What if the Bulls could take back Hinrich or Gordon? You in?
Let’s say for the sake of argument the Bulls had the opportunity to bring back either Hinrich or Gordon on their existing deals by using their cap space.   If you bring back Hinrich the pick still does not come with him.  Sure there’s a million reasons why neither thing could happen, but for the sake...

Vladimir Veremeenko is finally a Bull

Per K.C. Johnson, a man who sorely needs the whole month of August off, the Kirk Hinrich trade is finally completed. In exchange for Hinrich, the rights to Kevin Seraphin and cash, the Wizards sent the Bulls the draft rights to Vladimir Veremeenko, the first Belarusian player ever drafted in the NBA. The Bulls finalized... Read more »

Kirk Hinrich speaks

With hours to go until he officially departs us, and with seven years of gravity in his voice, Kirk Hinrich speaks of his trade to the Wizards. He doesn’t look especially comfortable doing it; then again, as far as the media goes, he never has done. Possibly even by the time you read this post... Read more »
