He (Deng) even summarized his feelings in what some could read as a shot at Ben Gordon, though Deng insisted it wasn't.
"I think the offense is better now than at the start of last year," Deng said. "We have guys who are not just shooting the ball. We're moving the ball really well and sharing it. We're setting good screens.
"As long as we do that, obviously, you don't have to run a play for me. I'm going to cut, we're going to share the ball, I'll get open looks. It's easy to play the game that way. It's when the ball stays on one side and then after a long period, you try to run something for me and I'm not in the flow of the game that it's not good." - KC Johnson, Chicago Tribune, 10.15.09.
This is great news. When you consider that:
1. Hinrich missed almost half the season last year
2. Salmons and Miller weren't really integrated on the team until March
3. Deng didn't play after Feb. 28th
4. We didn't have T. Gibson and J. Johnson
5. We now have a defensive focus
6. Luol says our offense is better this year
7. Luol is finally healthy
8. Rose is ready to take that next step
....and we still managed to win 41 games...when you consider all that, then we should expect to win at least 60 games. Love it live!
