No Rose? No problem. 
THREE double-doubles from Luol Deng (23 pts, 10 ast), Joakim Noah (15 pts, 16 reb), and Carlos Boozer (23 pts, 15 reb) led Da Bulls to a 89-80 finish over the Celts.

Carlos Boozer is a weirdo, that’s why his hair seems normal to me.

Dang! Luol Deng has a torn ligament in his non-shooting wrist. It is being described as a “week-to-week” injury for who Jeff Van Gundy calls one of the most underrated players in the league.
At 16-3 the Bulls have the best record in the NBA despite having played more games in the young season than any team other than the Lakers, and a rash of injuries that has caused Derrick Rose, Joakim Noah, Richard Hamilton, Taj Gibson, CJ Watson, and now Deng to miss games.
On the bright side maybe Ronnie Brewer will get some much deserved credit for his utility role and improved offensive game. And as Kelly Dwyer points out it gives Luol some much deserved time to rest and heal.

I never said Kobe was better than [Michael Jordan]. [Michael] just told me Kobe’s the only one to have done the work, to deserve comparison.

So Jordan doesn’t think anyone’s worth of even standing in his shadow but off the players, Kobe’s the most-least-most-worthy. Or something like that.

NBA Haikus - 2011-2012 Season Preview - The Central Division

It’s going to be a short season after an even shorter off-season. We had limited time to track player movement, team development and bring you in depth team analysis, like we did last year. So the bros and bro-ettes at NBAO decided we’ll follow in the footsteps of the NBA and provide you with abbreviated team previews in the best way possible, haikus.

Our second installment of NBA Haikus is dedicated to the Eastern Conference’s Central Division. A division that seems to be heading towards mediocrity, given the aging Celtics, the lack of depth of the Knicks, uncertainty of the Nets and the permanent stench of the Raptors.

Eastern Conference - Atlantic Division:


Chicago Bulls:
Sign Rip Hamilton
A two guard ghost protocol
The ghost is MJ
__________ 

Cleveland Cavaliers: 
Brad’s hot in Cleveland
Trade LeBron to New Orleans
Angry emails work
__________  

Detroit Pistons:
The perfect roster
for making a playoff run
in the FIBA league
__________  

Indiana Pacers:
Welcome back, Foster
Conseco, not Canseco
An eighth seed awaits
__________ 
 

Milwaukee Bucks:
StackJack in Wisco
Like orange juice with corn flakes
Offbeat, yet tasty
__________

I don’t take anything for granted, and I appreciate everyone. And I think I can finally say this now. Mom we finally made it.
— Derrick Rose after signing his 5-year $94 million dollar extension. For the next time someone tries to say the NBA is just a bunch of selfish divas.

Calling this his BRI split face. Still G.O.A.T. though. He’s still the G.O.A.T.

This lock out is weighing heavily on Joakim Noah. Poor guy.

That time Steve Nash had himself a good game against the ‘96 Bulls.

“Which one of you is Gary? It’s that guy? Tell him I said he should guard me. He is? Well tell him I said he should guard me MORE.”

“He was at every practice. He was one of those guys that you never could come into practice and say ‘M I’m a little tired today man. Take it easy on me.’ That would be like throwing blood in the water to him. He just wanted to kill you then.”
