There are a lot of reasons to like Chicago Bulls center Joakim Noah, but his shot fundamentals isn't one of them.
Carlos Boozer will not play tonight vs. the Atlanta Hawks. Boozer continues to get treatment on his injured sprained ankle and though the swelling has gone down he is not ready to get back on the court.
The Chicago Bulls were on a roll and approaching their first division title in 13 years when Carlos Boozer suffered an injury. But overcoming injuries is nothing new to this Bulls team.
It is easy to think of the Bulls championship in 1991 as a start since it was the first of a glorious six title in eight season run.
Carlos Boozer is officially being listed as day to day but the likelihood is that he will miss a couple of games (or more). Boozer had an MRI and it confirmed that the ankle is indeed sprained and the key will be how quick the swelling goes down.
The thing I have appreciated most about this Chicago Bulls team is the humility the players and coaches have shown. All season long, the Bulls have managed to stay humble and even-keeled, both on and off the court.
The Chicago Bulls were without center Joakim Noah for 30 games. While they were still able to 22-8 over that stretch, they're a much more dangerous team with him in the lineup, despite his less than perfect looking shot.
Earlier this week, Chicago Bulls owner Jerry Reinsdorf said that he thought the team could win four NBA championships in the next several years. While that may prove to be true, saying it is easier than doing it.
Chicago Bulls forward Carlos Boozer injured his left ankle in the fourth quarter of the team's 101-84 victory over the Charlotte Bobcats. X-rays on Boozer's ankle came back negative.
Carlos Boozer limped off the court after a flagrant foul minutes before the game ended, but the Chicago Bulls held the Bobcats back for another victory.
