Rose is out tonight and tomorrow.

Rose wanted to play but Gar is going to keep him out until this weekend.

Deng and Noah are out due to injuries as well.

Hinrich is suspended 1 game.

Everything is going WRONG for Bulls.

Joe Johnson will be out tonight and tomorrow vs Raptors. Eithout JJ, Raptors will most likely beat Hawks now.

God is making sure that Bulls don't make playoffs.

Guys I know this sucks big time.

I gotta give credit to VDN for how he handles himself (not his coaching). If I was VDN i would be making a ton of excuses but, he isn't.

Also, the one silver lining is that JJ will get some time and we will see how he can do with some extra minutes.

Jannero Pargo, Flip Murray, James Johnson, Taj Gibson and Brad Miller

Is this the worst starting lineup the Bulls have put out in the post-Jordan era? There were probably some worse one in 2000 or 2001, but at least this is a result of injuries unlike the early 2000s where that was our actually best starting 5.

Nope, Law, Murray, Pargo, Gibson, and Miller is. If luck decides to be even more cruel, Gibson goes down and next thing you know we're playing Joe Alexander huge minutes. I hope it doesn't get that bad...

Seriously if Deng, Rose and Noah will stay out longer I would think about resting Gibson, too. Not completely but when you are too far behind at halftime I would rest him.

I mean he has a similar injury like Noah has.

So we would make sure our real starting lineup will be healthy when we need them (I think the schedule will be easier next month, right?)

At least if that happens the guys in the 49 point game a decade ago will have that record off their backs. ;)

Damn I missed the first quarter. Can somebody please give me a short recap and tell me why we have the lead?

Well this has quickly turned as awful as you'd expect.

I am pleasantly surprised we're not down by 40. Good job D-League (sorta) Bulls! :p

I hate that the refs call everything on Gibson just because he´s a rookie. -.-

Lol, same with the highlight clip they show before tip off on the big screen. Doubt there are any Murray, Law, or Pargo highlights.

Still only 1 game out after dropping 7 in a row...that's a lil cause for some optimism. No? :) No way we win tomorrow night either so that would give us 9 losses in a row & but we'd still at worst only be 2.5 games out.

Plus, if you think we're bad, just look at the Raps. They're fully healthy & playing like dog crap. So don't abandon all hope just yet.

Making the playoffs or tanking, either way our 1st Rnd pick is going to be swapped. Nothing's gonna change that now. It's all about next season anyway so I for one don't really care if we make it or not, it's clear we wouldn't do crap even if we did.

I welcome everyone to follow the other team that plays at the UC, the one with a legit shot at a championship this year: the Blackhawks baby!!!

Hey missing 4/5 starters and having a beat up Taj and Miller with a D-Leaguer backing them up, I'd say not losing by 20 was an accomplishment. Acie Law looked a lot better than Pargo from what I saw, I think he should be starting over Pargo when Hinrich gets back. Actually...Pargo shouldn't even be in the rotation at all...you think Kirk is bad, man Pargo makes him look like Steve Nash.

Pargo is 9th in the league for field goal attempts per minute. Not bad for a guy who barely makes 1 in 3. I mean he's playing now because of injuries, but you've got to say it's on Vinny for giving him playing time earlier.
