Carlos Boozer's sprained ankle is improving but likely is a few days away from returning.
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.
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.
Obviously, it's still plenty early and no one has even played a game but it's never too early to look into a crystal ball as to what might happen during the regular season.
There were noticeable changes upon seeing Carlos Quentin for the first time here at Spring Training.
Wow....now that's what I call a busy day as the Sox opened up their Spring Training camp out here in Glendale. Where to start? Let's start with Jake Peavy who told us that he has been throwing for the last month or so and feels fine.
I had a chance Tuesday morning/afternoon to catch both Chicago baseball teams. The Cubs & Sox are now both working out and I hurried from one to the other.
Day three of the Cub's training camp and so far the operative word is vanilla. Vanilla as in not much is happening here. The anticipation of the arrival of some of the everyday players is about the biggest news.
There are a lot of elements to the Chicago Cubs that could turn into positives or negatives for the team. The purpose of spring training it to do your best to make them positives.
Dinner will be on Carlos Marmol tonight. In fact he should be paying for the remainder of the spring after signing a 3 year deal in excess of $20 million.
Derrick Rose will try and play tonight. Rose went through the team's shoot around this morning and says if he warms up this evening and has the proper energy, he will play.
Derrick Rose has an ulcer. Actually he has two in his stomach. One is fairly large and the other is smaller.
With Wednesday's news that the New Jersey Nets have (supposedly) pulled out of the Carmelo Anthony sweepstakes, some local people think that the Bulls might have a chance to get the all star forward.
Think back to the hot days of the summer. The Bears were just heading to training camp and shortly there after they finished the pre season campaign at 0-4. Did you in your wildest imagination think at that time that the Bears now would be one step away from going to the Super Bowl?
After scoring 78 points in their 2 preceding games the Bears offense went into hibernation up here in Green Bay. The old bug a boos returned as the offense line failed to protect Jay Cutler witness 6 sacks.
Dear diary I can now cross off my bucket list of being a professional basketball player.
If only the Bulls could bottle what they had Tuesday night. Or better yet, if only they could play the 76ers every night.
The Bulls will really be short handed when they play host to the Philadelphia 76ers tonight. Taj Gibson joins Joakim Noah on the sidelines, as Gibson is still bothered by the effects of the concussion he suffered Saturday night.
The Bulls were nothing short of astounded that Joakim Noah was able to play with his injury for the last 3 weeks. That injury finally necessitated surgery which was performed successfully Thursday morning.
Joakim Noah had yet another double double Wednesday night but it likely will be his last for quite a while. The Bulls have announced that the 6'11" center will have surgery Thursday morning to repair damage in his right thumb.
Derrick Rose says he hardly slept Monday night and that he felt like an NFL player after a game. Rose took a pounding in the win over the Pacers and after literally limping out of the locker room went home and soaked in a tub for hours.
You're starting to see why the Bulls signed Carlos Boozer and you're also starting to see how he makes a difference. Boozer posted his first double double in a Bulls uniform as he and his teammates defeated Oklahoma City 99-90.
Carlos Boozer flashed a big smile after practice Monday and for good reason. This was a practice that he actually participated in rather then watch.
