Voting for the 2010 NBA All-Star Game got underway on Tuesday with five Bulls on the ballot. For the first time in balloting history, fans can vote for All-Stars any time by texting a player’s last name from their mobile phones.

Perhaps the league’s focus on rolling out the new initiative contributed to the omission of Joakim …

The guy Bulls fans most love to hate—well, not quite hate, but always expect more from—has been the team’s best player thus far in the 2-2 start.

Luol Deng missed 52 games with injuries the last two seasons and had his scoring average drop last season to 14.1 points, six rebounds and 44.8 percent shooting, all better than only his …

Could it be the Bulls have rediscovered that developing All-Star, Luol Deng?

Here’s how former Bulls coach Scott Skiles described how his Milwaukee Bucks blew an 18-point lead and lost to the Bulls Tuesday, 83-81, as Deng had 24 points and a career high 20 rebounds.

“We got physically dominated by Deng tonight,” said Skiles. We just couldn’t do anything …

The NBA preseason is a matter of perspective. One can look at things like the Bulls’ 87-86 win over the Milwaukee Bucks at the United Center Tuesday as the glass half filled.

You get a win without Derrick Rose and Tyrus Thomas once again–Brad Miller also was out with the flu–as the two starters may play toward the end of …

Following three exhibition games on the road, the Bulls will return home tonight to host the Milwaukee Bucks at 7 p.m. (CSN, ESPN 1000). But once again, they’ll have to take the court without some of their top players.

Prior to Tuesday’s game, Head Coach Vinny Del Negro acknowledged Derrick Rose (right ankle) and Tyrus Thomas (right …

The Bulls lost Saturday night in Green Bay to the Milwaukee Bucks 98-86.

This is what was most obvious from the team’s first loss of the preseason.

They really miss Derrick Rose.

They better be a transition team as much as possible because they do not play well in the half court.

Did I mention they really miss Derrick Rose?…

Maybe we all can learn something from those original dunkers from Boston. The guys who slammed the tea. They seemed to know how to handle the British.

The Bulls host the champion Boston Celtics Tuesday, and once again will be without the injured Luol Deng in this important stretch run for a playoff spot.

But it looks increasingly as if …

Eight hasn’t been a great number for the Bulls as the longest serving players ever to wear it for the Bulls were Mickey Johnson, Bobby Weiss and Dickey Simpkins. It’s often a number associated with problems, like being behind the 8-ball, or getting a Section 8 discharge. Tradition has Jewish male children getting their circumcision on the eighth day of …

Kirk Hinrich never asked the Bulls to trade him.

He just showed them Wednesday in Milwaukee why they shouldn’t.

Hinrich played perhaps the best game of his career, and not only because he scored a season high 31 points with five threes in a 113-104 win over the Milwaukee Bucks that moved the Bulls within a game and a half …

I am about to write one of the most frightening sentences in the basketball language.

As Drew Gooden goes, so goes the Bulls?

Yikes!

And this is not to blame Gooden for Wednesday’s Bulls 97-90 loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, though going one of 11 shooting Wednesday after zero for five shooting in Tuesday’s overtime loss to the 76ers suggests …
