Bulls

Wednesday, February 10, 2010

Turning on the 'D' The Bulls continued their inconsistent, unpredictable ways Tuesday at Conseco Fieldhouse, this time alternating good and bad play from quarter to quarter instead of from game to game. But with a strong fourth quarter, especially on defense, the Bulls rallied from an 11-point second-half deficit before pulling away down the stretch for a 109-101 victory against the Indiana Pacers.
Thomas gives team needed lift

INDIANAPOLIS -- The stubborn side of forward Tyrus Thomas was present before the Bulls' game Tuesday against the Indiana Pacers when he said he had no regrets about the incident last week that caused him to be suspended for a game. Although he had apologized to the team, he wouldn't do so publicly.

Deng's double-double leads Bulls past Pacers 109-101 Luol Deng had 23 points and 11 rebounds, and the Chicago Bulls beat the Indiana Pacers 109-101 on Tuesday night. Derrick Rose and John Salmons each scored 21 points for the Bulls, who had lost three of their previous four. Kirk Hinrich scored 17 points, and Brad Miller added 13 for Chicago. Indiana shot just 33 percent in the fourth quarter and blew a five-point lead.

Thomas' Bulls time likely about finished John Jackson: Forget his profanity-laced tirade at Bulls coach Vinny Del Negro after the game on Friday in Atlanta for a moment. The biggest sign that Tyrus Thomas is utterly clueless was that he chose that game -- one of his worst with the team -- to explode and whine about playing time.

Sad to say, but Bulls might be stuck with Tyrus Mark Potash: I'm tired of Tyrus Thomas. But I'm also tired of the Bulls drafting high and selling low. So the best thing the Bulls can do with Thomas is to keep him. It's a sad fact of life in the NBA these days that you get more out of catering to malcontents than you do by fighting them.

Noah's healing process shows potential

The only surefire remedy for the severe case of plantar fasciitis that has sidelined Bulls center Joakim Noah is extended rest.

Hard-working Bulls rest, then get back to work After a day off Sunday, the Bulls return to practice today to prepare for their game Tuesday against the Pacers in Indianapolis. ''We were a little short-handed, and some guys have had to play extra minutes,'' Bulls coach Vinny Del Negro said of the last two games, a loss at Atlanta on Friday and a victory over the Miami Heat at the United Center on Saturday.
