Thibs: Lu will stay in Chicago, day-to-day...Kirk is a "we'll see" for shootaround/Game 2, swelling's down

The rumors were for game 3, not game 2.

Gotcha. Flapship needs to break the story!

Jimmy pleases me greatly.

@FisolaNYDN

Spoelstra vs Thibodeau is really Riley vs Van Gundy all over again. Just hope Tom doesn't find himself clutching LeBron's leg for dear life

 

wow, really?

 

Speaking of Thibs, I heard on the radio this morning he was 8th in coach of the year voting. Eighth! I know it was regular season voting, but still. With the injuries this year, he should have been top 3-4 easy.

Gotcha. Flapship needs to break the story!

It was already "broken" by Hoopsworld, but of course Flapship gave them a shoutout in a post that's dominating via google news right now. Come on, son.

 

zOMG! Another Derrick Rose Rumor!

That is a f***ing joke. Nobody did more with less.

His backstory is great, and he's always been described as a kid with high character. I was disappointed at his lack of minutes last year but apparently its paying off now.

He blew out his ACL the same day Derrick did...

Clearly not 110%, he would have shattered the backboard and helped a mother give birth immediately following if he had.

Holy f***. That was nasty.

108.5%

He grew up tougher in Oak Park than Rose did in weak ass p**** englewood

sigh

"Iman Shumpert is a shadow of his rookie self" - Michael Wilbon

He admitted he didnt feel right for the first month or two he was back, but now feels 100% Because you have to actually play to get that feeling back.

That certainly was not an explosive play.

Exactly.

Wilbon hates anything south of Wrigley field. He was scared going to school on the west side.

I'll just choose to be happy that a player who tore his ACL looks back to normal.

Yeah Rose has never really come back from a devastating injury before.

 

Right now its mainly belief. He just needs to believe that his knee wont break when he cuts.

It's the hair. Derrick's gotta grow one of those high top hairstyles (whatever they're called).

Flat top

Yes, let's compare a broken ankle from which Hill came back and (tried) to play on 6 months after surgery to a torn ACL 15 years later after he hasn't played for more than 12 months. Because Hill isn't bitter or anything.

 

There is so much wrong with this piece that it goes beyond the realm of reasonability and simply enters the realm of blowing Derrick Rose.

ESPN put out a poll asking "Who is the best coach in the NBA" to a group of associated NBA "experts".

 

Thibs is right where he should be, 2nd place.

Flat top

 

It's a "high-top fade". It's pretty much the same as a flat-top, but a flat-top is generally not as high.
