Jimmy Butler sprained knee

[jimmybball]

Surprised I didn't see a thread on this. Not even a game thread to discuss it.

He sprained the knee when jumping. Didn't look too good. Surprised it is only a sprained knee. Bulls having injuries left and right.

[SpaceJam]

Honestly with all the injuries we have had this year we should have just kept fkn Thibs

Wasn't a good part of the reasoning for firing him was minutes allocation and the injuries it caused

[WayOfWade]

This blows for the Bulls, they need him to get HC in the first round

First and foremost, Hoiberg is a loser. Jimmy said he heard something pop and is getting an MRI tomorrow. No Noah, No Gasol, No Mirotic, No Dunleavy, No Butler. thats an entire starting line up including 3 allstars.

And PS. rose having to carry the load on offense now will wear him down too. my baby bulls

Dunleavys coming back today though

He mustered up the strength to shoot his freethrows and then hobbled back to that stretcher-chair thingy. He looked to be in pretty rough shape.

Champ...

Thankfully we have Dunleavy on his way back.


Nothing to worry about

Well IIRC, Chicago have a better record with Rose and without Butler, so there is no excuse for the Bulls now. With Butler gone, there is nothing to hinder Rose's brilliance, am I doing it right jizz?

Just a hyperextension.... Back in a game or two...thank goodness. This road trip has been a complete disaster though, and I am totally fine with blowing the team up at this point. They are a mess.

were lacking serious defense. and guess what? pau gasol is part of that problem. alot of the time, his great offense is offsetted by his poor defense.

Agreed. Gasol's help defense shines for like 2 blocks a game...then gives up like 30-40 points the rest of the game. With Rose starting to come back to near all-star level, him, Butler, Portis need to be the building blocks of something new. Although, Rose will NOT get even close to a max deal in 2 years, so I doubt he stays around long term.

0-2 without Butler so far, with an embarrassing loss to the Wolves
