Bulls report: Getting inside

A season of frustration continued as the Bulls had to play three games without top scorers Ben Gordon (sprained right wrist) and Luol Deng (left Achilles' tendinitis).

They managed to win the first game against Indiana as guard Kirk Hinrich scored a career-high 38 points. But the Bulls scored just 77 points in each of their next two outings against Charlotte and Phoenix.

The Bulls don't have a deep well of scoring talent to begin with. Hinrich came through with 31 points in the loss to the Suns, but forward Andres Nocioni struggled and forward Joe Smith has been in a slump. Smith had fluid drained from his right knee last Friday after the loss to Charlotte.

"I'm not quite sure exactly what I can do," coach Jim Boylan said of the Bulls' lack of scoring punch. "But we're going to go back to the drawing board and see if we can dream up something, see if we can get something done."

The Bulls next play two games against Minnesota on consecutive days, beginning Tuesday at the United Center. The Timberwolves possess the NBA's worst record at 8-35, but have won three of their last four.

SUNS 88, BULLS 77: The Bulls turned in an impressive defensive performance, but it wasn't enough to avoid a Sunday afternoon loss at the United Center.

It was the Suns' second-lowest offensive output this season. Their season-low of 86 points came Jan. 10 at Utah with Steve Nash, Shawn Marion and Grant Hill sidelined. On Sunday, Phoenix was at full strength except for Hill.

The Bulls missed 13 of their first 14 shots, but managed to take a brief lead in the third quarter. They were within 70-66 with 9:40 remaining in the contest, then went scoreless for four minutes while the Suns pulled away with a 12-0 run.

Kirk Hinrich was the Bulls' only offensive star, hitting 12-of-23 for 31 points. Andres Nocioni went 3-for-13 from the field for seven points, while Joe Smith was 2-for-12 for four points. Amare Stoudemire led Phoenix with 24 points.

Turns out that Tyrus Thomas has not had his contract extended for next year, deadline was Monday. This coupled with the Flu and having him not traveling with the team leads some to suspect that he may not be long in Chicago.

I think Thomas is an atheletic freak and has shown some sparks at times. He could be a very

We already miss Gordon. We have no one that can score like he can. This is another bad game by the Bulls. This is a Joke.  I dont mind having a bad year this year but we better make sure we get Wade.  This is bad.  Also why is Gibson getting all these Min. He looks like he will be a good back up but he is playing too many Min ...(more)

Since the Bulls drafted Joakim Noah number 9 over all a few years ago, i have been smashing him. He could only be productive in college, i said. I said he was to slim and his passion play could only get him so far in the NBA. I said this for a long time.

What makes us think that Dwayne Wade will make us infinetley better? We already have Heinrich who is a starting guard on most teams in the league. Not to mention Salmons.

And we already have a player much like Wade in Derrick Rose. They both slash to the basket, and having two basket slashers is not a winning formula.

Is it just me, or does Rose play the least amount of minutes for a supposed best player out of any team in the NBA?

Against the Bobcats, Rose played for 30 minutes while Hinirch played for 33. What the heck is that? Hinirch is good and is a sixth man. But why can't him and Salmons switch? Salmons played over 40 minutes. Whats w

Loul Deng is of to a great start, hitting jumpers, playing physical, and even making a occasional 3 pointer.

17.2 points per game / 9.8 rebounds a game

This is what we all expected from him when the Bulls signed him to a new contract. Hes had some injury set backs over the last 2 years, but right now he is looking real

The add-on idea for the chicago Bulls guess the stat, get the props game is you pick the winners for the games on the days that the bulls play, and only on the days the bulls play. However u do not pick the winner for the bulls game, cuz all bulls fans will pick the bulls to win (i would think so).
