Hinrich Possibly Out Three Months


Good thing the Bulls had something like 10 guards coming into the season…The longest-tenured Bull with undergo surgery on his right thumb early this week.

    atleast Rose is doin wonders for the bulls, def ROY along with an all-star appearence this year

  • jaywhy Posted: Nov.9 at 12:19 pm
    another injury… =(

  • Moose Posted: Nov.9 at 12:20 pm
    More minutes for Rose!

  • underdog Posted: Nov.9 at 12:38 pm
    So, when Larry Hughes return?

  • mike Posted: Nov.9 at 12:55 pm
    He’s faking.

  • Moose Posted: Nov.9 at 12:59 pm
    Not quite, mike.

  • Peter Robert Casey Posted: Nov.9 at 2:26 pm
    I loved how you prefaced the article with the Bulls’ abundance of guards. True story.

  • RV Posted: Nov.9 at 3:19 pm
    my best FA pickup in the fantasy league is no more….

  • Moose Posted: Nov.9 at 3:20 pm
    He was inconsistent anyways RV, right? :)

  • overtime Posted: Nov.9 at 3:27 pm
    wasnt actually doin all that bad off the bench…

  • DD Posted: Nov.9 at 3:49 pm
    this is good for the team, THIS WOULD BE THE BEST LINE UP EVEVR PG ROSE G Gordon SF Hughues ( i know hes too small but his speed makes up for it) PF Nocioni C Deng

  • Moose Posted: Nov.9 at 4:00 pm
    Ummmmm, DD? Deng is definitely NOT a center, he’s a swingman, and he’s 6′9″.

  • Tanny Posted: Nov.9 at 4:30 pm
    DD does not watch basketball.

  • the baconator Posted: Nov.9 at 4:58 pm
    DD prolly drafted Adrian Peterson for his fantasy basketball league

  • riggs Posted: Nov.9 at 6:09 pm
    DD still thinks charles barkley plays for phoenix

  • Moose Posted: Nov.9 at 6:19 pm
    Hey y’all, stop hating on DD so much. When I first came here, I was hated on profusely for my lack of in-depth hoops knowledge (I was 12, gimme a break) and I dint like it. I like to think that I know a lot more know; I think I do cause people don’t hate on me for what I say.

  • KobeWearsPurplePanties Posted: Nov.9 at 7:25 pm
    Who cares?! The way the Pistons look, the Celtics will run away with the East anyway. The Bulls need another proven scorer-Rose could be that guy.

  • john Posted: Nov.9 at 7:25 pm
    everybody is getting injured or already injured

  • KobeWearsPurpleThong Posted: Nov.9 at 8:20 pm
    The Pistons are getting a Detroit Ass-Whooping tonight! Allen who? They never should’ve traded the heart & soul of their team. Thanks Dumars! Go Green…

  • Moose Posted: Nov.9 at 8:51 pm
    YEAAAAH, son. Posey who???

  • Moose Posted: Nov.9 at 8:52 pm
    I shouldn’t say that now actually. TA needs to do what he did tonite on a regular basis before I start saying that Po-Z is replaced. Tony needs to keep playing D and scoring, House needs to keep shooting, and Powe and Big Baby need to keep taking them charges. But we MURDERED the Pistons tonite.

  • RV Posted: Nov.9 at 9:24 pm
    Moose, sure was, but he was the worst of my players, which is actually a good thing….roger mason jr though, he’s about to blow up, so that’s Hinrich’s replacement.

  • KobeWearsPurpleThong Posted: Nov.9 at 9:32 pm
    That’s right Moose. And just imagine if Bill Walker gets going too…Can you say repeat? It is real early though. Toronto and Philly may start to creep if they gel at all. Cleveland honestly doesn’t scare me much. They remind me a lot of the Bulls in the 80’s- stop #23 and you’ve stopped the Cavs.

  • jose Posted: Nov.9 at 10:31 pm
    well if miami puts haslem at center i dont know wat to say to DD. goood luck wit that

  • Russ Bengtson Posted: Nov.10 at 7:31 am
    I was nowhere near Kirk when he got hurt. Just wanted to put that out there.

  • Moose Posted: Nov.10 at 7:34 am
    Thanks for that, Russ. I assume you weren’t near Josh Smith either . . . right? 0_0. Lang wouldn’t be happy, man. Office rivalry!

  • Russ Bengtson Posted: Nov.10 at 7:40 am
    I could care less about the Hawks. They could go 82-0 or 0-82, doesn’t matter to me. The Bulls, on the other hand, have been a passion for over 20 years. I bleed, uh, red.

  • Moose Posted: Nov.10 at 7:45 am
    lmao, that one kinda backfired. I get it now though! I ain’t a fan of Hinrich either.

  • Rich Posted: Nov.10 at 9:54 am
    Ahhhh, now my boy Gordon gonna make his money. It’s messed up what happened to Hinrich, but honestly they were gonna try to trade him anyway, now they can’t. If the Bulls were smart though, they’ll pay Gordon right now because he’s gonna average 30-35 minutes a game and score 25 a game, with Larry Hughes back in the lineup. Gordon and Rose complement each other perfectly, with Noc playing the small forward. Look at the games against Phoenix and Cleveland. Deng was truly overpaid, and it’s showing. He’s not consistent AT ALL. Gordon lighting up the place… pay him right now or suffer later.

  • [...] Larry Hughes – He may return this week to further complicate things in the Chicago backcourt. Kirk’s injury will clear up some space, and it’s possible Hughes will get a lot of minutes because of the size advantage he offers over Rose and Gordon. If you have a roster spot, add him and see what happens. [...]
