OK, so now we know why Derrick Rose has been spending so much time in street clothes. He is a magazine cover model. OK, maybe that’s not the reason, but the Chicago Bulls guard and reigning NBA Most Valuable Player is on the cover of the May issue of GQ magazine that is out April […]
So there they were: several Luvabulls videos from the Miami Heat-Chicago Bulls game Thursday (April 12). And the task was to figure a way to use them, so they would seem to fit in nicely with today’s posting (which, had there been a greater sense of urgency would have been one of yesterday’s postings). Ah, […]
For those keeping track of such things, here is how the postseason contenders could diminish with games Wednesday (April 11). * Cleveland is eliminated with a loss or a New York victory. * Detroit is eliminated with a New York victory. * Golden State is eliminated with a loss. * Minnesota is eliminated with a […]
Who was that masked man? Well, in that it was a see-through mask, the answer was fairly clear — especially to Chicago Bulls fans. Richard “Rip” Hamilton returned to the court after missing 19 games with a shoulder injury. He was a late addition to the starting lineup in a game Monday (April 2) the […]
Derrick Rose runs with some fast company. At least in his latest ad from adidas. The Chicago Bulls star and reigning NBA Most Valuable Player is shown running along with singer Katy Perry and soccer stars David Beckham and Lionel Messi. A 60-second spot released last week features the quartet running separately to a remix […]
What do you do for an encore after you successfully shoot the puck at a Chicago Blackhawks game? Go to a Bulls game and present the game ball to the officials before the contest. Well, that’s what you do if you happen to be the newly crowned Mrs. Illinois, Lisa Sonnenberg. Lisa went to the […]
The Chicago Bulls opened their St. Patrick’s Day game Saturday against the visiting Philadelphia 76ers with an 11-point first quarter. The Bulls missed their first seven field-goal attempts and one foul shot in falling behind 11-0. All of which had some in the crowd wondering whether St. Paddy’s partying might have been a problem for […]
It would seem Derrick Rose is far from a shoo-in to play in Saturday night’s game. The Chicago Bulls star guard and reigning NBA Most Valuable Player sat out the team’s contest Friday (March 16) with a groin injury. He has missed two consecutive contests. Rose was in street clothes for Wednesday’s game; he was […]
It may be a first. Not the basket that John Lucas III floated over LeBron James, who was guarding him; Lucas has made shots like that before. But what the Chicago Bulls guard said of the Miami Heat’s superstar who is 6-8 to Lucas’s 5-11. “Just another guy,” Lucas said in the locker room after […]
Linsanity met a mad man Monday night. The mad man prevailed over Jeremy Lin and the New York Knicks. The mad man — OK, maybe angry would be a better way to describe Chicago Bulls guard Derrick Rose, the reigning NBA MVP — had 32 points in a 104-99 victory at the United Center. Included […]
