Ugh, they're terrible out there tonight. But on the plus side, they've got the best of the X-Mas uniforms.

[bcl412]

These last two games kind of cancel out the high of the win vs the Knicks.

Omer. :(

lol @ deng spraining his ankle in the first quarter and then still getting played 36 minutes in a complete blowout. great.

[Derwood]

Oh look, Hinrich was a complete waste of space again

[Careless]

The rarely seen snowed-out basketball game tonight.

Weak sauce.

7.5 inches of snow is enough to "snow out" a basketball game, eh?

It was the 40 mile per hour winds that were causing problems more than the amount of snow, but it had settled down at the time they cancelled it. I don't know why they were still ok with playing when it looked like it was going to be bad all day, and then cancel it right after the storm moved through earlier than expected.

 

The Pacer fans were kind of annoyed too because it was the perfect time to catch the Bulls. The Pacers had 3 days off, the Bulls were on a back to back, Deng's sprained ankle, etc. It's possible both teams will be at full strength (Granger for the Pacers, Rose for the Bulls) by the time that game is rescheduled.

Simmons had a random nugget in his NFL picks column today that Rose is coming back very soon.

 

Here's the quote.

 

"Bears (-3.5) over LIONS

 

At Stake: Chicago's flimsy playoff hopes (they need to win AND they need Minnesota to lose); Calvin Johnson's chances to break the 2,000-yard receiving mark; maybe Lovie Smith's job; maybe Jim Schwartz's job; Jay Cutler and Stat Padford9 staging a "Who can stare down his best receiver and keep forcing him the ball in triple coverage more times?" contest for the ages; the actual date that Chicago fans say, "Screw football, when is Derrick coming back?" (it's either this Monday or a week from Monday);"

He means that fans will be asking that question either Monday (Bears miss playoffs), or a week from Monday (Bears lose in round 1). It has nothing to do with Rose's timetable.

Yeah. Rose has only done a few non-contact things in practice. He wasn't being serious.

Wonder how long Thibs will start Rip over Bellinelli if he keeps playing well

[UMFan83]

yay for probably ending the Bobcats losing streak....on your home floor no less.

 

Looks like the Bulls took lessons from the Rex Grossman School of New Years Eve professionalism.

K.C Johnson ‏@KCJHoop

Derrick Rose said he will travel with #Bulls to Orlando and Miami.

[rawaction]

Bulls to sign Daequan Cook who cleared waivers. Shooter.

[illiniguy]

Nate Robinson needs to get hit by a bus.

[SpongeWorthy]

ESPN is letting Jalen Rose anchor its studio coverage. Bold move.

[Wilson A2000]

So the Bulls are $3 million over the cap? Reinsdorf is actually going to pay the luxury tax?

 

Bulls playing very well tonight. Unfortunately Hinrich knocked LeBron into Thibs and and Thibs went down LeBron accidentally grabbed his junk.
