    Bully's DENG torn wrist ligaments

    Left wrist......non shooting hand..... Gonna forgo surgery so that he doesn't miss the playoff run. Bulls are all in for a ring this year. I'd like to see what they do at the trade deadline. Lots of interesting pieces on their bench

    Deng is a big piece. He is Rose's Pippen.

    No he hasn't, at least not that was known. It happened recently. He had the same injury on his RIGHT wrist several years ago. This is his left wrist now.

    I don't think they do anything at the trade deadline. What exactly would you propose? You've got Rose, Hamilton, Deng, Boozer and Noah. They're not messing with it. And then they've got Watson, Brewer, Korver, Gibson, Asik. I see no reason to mess with what they got. I suppose they could add a another big for backend bench depth purposes only, but it wouldn't be much, if anything. Maybe someone like Pryzbilla or Leon Powe, for depth. They addressed the major hole they had at SG in the offseason already.

    Scoring point guards are like elusive running backs...

    Deng will be out for awhile, no exact word yet. He had a thing with his shins a few years back and he almost never toughed it out.

    hopefully he got mis-labeled with the "weak" tab. Guy is their best defender by far

    Best defender on the best defensive team, that's saying something. They can't win a title without him, but they can still win plenty of reg season games, best he just take it easy and be healthy when it counts.

    He's a good athlete and active, and I like his effort, but seems nervous out there. Not ready for prime time, but could be good some day.

    yeah he is raw and a project. I'd just like to see them throw him out there more to get a feel for the game and be less nervous during the blowouts at least. and also keep everyone's legs fresh and save some minutes here and there. Bulls have alot of weak opponents.

    Yep. They would really have to get a lucky draw to make it to the finals.
