Re: 2012-13 Chicago Bulls Thread

Cool so Noah is doubtful for Game 1, will probably be a shell of himself if he plays at all this series, and admitted he played in regular season games he shouldn't have.

 

Bulls medical people are terrible and Thibs has no sense of how to throttle it back.

 

Why was he playing 2 nights ago? This is idiotic.

Because he likely said he could play. There's not much the "medical people" and coaches can do besides asking him if he can play or not when you're talking about plantar fasciitis.

Right. Blame Noah if you feel like you have to pass around blame. Nothing the Bulls or medical staff can do if Noah says he's good to play.

[Sammy Sofa]

Yup. It sounds to me that when he's saying he shouldn't have played he's saying that HE should have been more vocal about how it was bothering him.

[SpongeWorthy]

Noah said he had tears in his feet, FWIW. Is that typical of plantar fasciaitis or something more serious?

Well, yeah, you can tear the plantar fascia itself.

I want Rose to play, but it can't help Rose's decision that Noah and Taj get cleared by docs and then reinjure themselves Edited April 20, 2013 by Wilson A2000

[Sammy Sofa]

Which would be a dumb conclusion, since no player is ever immune from injury and all three have different injuries.

It's not a dumb conclusion since we have passed the point where Rose began making an unreasonable decision

[Sammy Sofa]

It would be Rose's dumb conclusion.

[SouthSideRyan]

I can't imagine somebody like Derrick Rose coming to a dumb conclusion

Lol, I doubt Rose is smart enough to come to this conclusion. He will play when he thinks he's ready.

My four year old was reading this and said "feet can't cry!"

 

I think that just might be the highpoint of the playoff run

[USSoccer]

I'm honestly a little surprised there's not more backlash against Rose than one random fat guy from Peoria suing him.

He's being mocked with MVP chants for Robinson during games. I'd think that would be bad enough, should he be able to figure it out

Thibs said Rose most likely out for first round of playoffs

It would be humane at this point to quit screwing with the fanbase and just declare him out for the year.

Idk. I think anyone still holding out hope deserves the disappointment.

[Ryne Ween]

I wonder if they are dicking the players around with this [expletive] too.

[illiniguy]

I can't believe he just gave away a playoff run. You only get so many of those.

[SpongeWorthy]

Really hard to fathom what kind of bubble Rose is in if he thinks he's played his hand properly.

[bcl412]

This may be the least excited I've been for a playoff series. I'm sure if they take one of the first two in Brooklyn I'll be more into it.

This whole last 2 months, once it became pretty obvious Rose wasn't coming back and the rest of the team was going to be banged up, I have lost almost all excitement. I have almost very little excitement for the playoffs and I feel horrible about that, but it's just how I feel.

It doesn't help that they have no chance to win the championship, are kind of a boring team to watch and our best players keep getting hurt all the damn time.

Well, I don't think anyone really is, or at least anyone who pays attention. But it's insulting at this point for the team to leave the door open when he's clearly not coming back.
