…Gone?

It would seem to be for Bulls leading scorer and free agent guard Ben Gordon, who was expected to get a free agent offer from the Detroit Pistons early Wednesday morning.

Can Ben Gordon be a home run for some team?

The last I heard after watching South Park at midnight was that the Pistons …

So you’ve got questions about the Bulls selections in Thursday’s NBA draft of Wake Forest’s James Johnson and USC’s Taj Gibson?

I like the picks. My guess is Tyrus Thomas doesn’t like them as much.

That’s because Johnson and Gibson figure to be some competition for Tyrus at power forward.

A trade?

Probably not. At least for now.

It’s been …

I will be analyzing each pick in tonight’s first round after it is made, of course, with special emphasis on the Bulls picks.

1. L.A. Clippers: Blake Griffin, Oklahoma There’s been almost no talk about the guy because of the lack of intrigue about whom they’ll pick. Even last year when there were those up to the night of the …

So what if your plan works and you still lose?

That seems to be what happened to the Los Angeles Lakers Tuesday in their attempt to effectively close out the Orlando Magic in the NBA Finals. The Lakers kept up their attention on Dwight Howard, who did shake loose a bit more with a quicker team tempo and diving into …

Start printing the playoff tickets? In outlasting the New York Knicks 105-100, the Bulls Tuesday moved to 10-11 on the season and into eighth place in the Eastern Conference. Of course, that also likely would mean a first round playoff matchup with the Boston Celtics.

Only 61 games to go.

“It is a different team (from last season),” said Bulls …
