trade deadline... the bulls are busy. they recently traded larry hughes to the knicks for jerome james, tim thomas, and anthony roberson. the only thing that's interesting in this trade has been beaten to death already: tim thomas was banished by the bulls in 2006. finally, jerome james is no longer with the knicks. maybe the knicks can now sign patrick ewing jr. to a contract now that they have some free roster spot. please donnie, make it happen.

finally the bulls pulled the trigger on a trade. this one does not involve amare though. according to espn , the bulls and the sacramento kings reached a tentative agreement to ship brad miller and john salmons to the chicago bulls in exchange for andres nocioni, cedric simmons, and drew gooden. the portland trailblazers are also involved in the trade as the bulls also agreed to send michael ruffin to the blazers while portland will ship ike diogu to the sacramento kings. i think the bulls just got better with this trade. john salmons is a good wingman who will play well alongside derrick rose. also, brad miller is a great passing center who can rebound as well which means the bulls are not jeopardizing their inside presence. fortunately, the bulls will no longer face shaq and the phoenix suns this season. after all, the last time shaq tried to rearrange brad's face, miller was wearing a bulls jersey.

this has got to be one of the weirdest thing to happen in the nba this season. yep, its even weirder than the rockets winning 22 straight games, weirder than the hornets making the plaoffs. according to yahoo! sports , benny the bull, the chicago bulls' mascot moonlighting as an ordinary person going by the name of barry anderson is being sued by dr. don kalant sr. after the mascot allegedly pulled kalant's arm as the mascot was falling down. before the accident, kalant rasied his arm to get a high-five from benny. kalant, an oral surgeon complained that when benny pulled his arms, it was hyperextended resulting to a torn biceps muscle. what's weird is that kalant finished the game before having his arms attended to. i'm not a doctor nor have i experienced tearing a bicep muscle but i think that it should hurt. now, the bulls are not exactly playing great basketball towards the end of the season so i am not sure why kalant would have had stayed to watch the game...
