Me too Sun-Times Basketball @suntimes_hoops Your Bulls starters - trust issues and all - Dunleavy, Gibson, Gasol, Jimmy All-Star and the No. 1.
Tim Bontemps @TimBontemps Kevin Garnett on Chicago: "It’s always special to come back to the Chi. Chi raised me. Big salute. It’s like my second home, always."
Sun-Times Basketball @suntimes_hoops The game is as easy as DRose wants to make it. It's an attitude and mindset.
K.C. Johnson @KCJHoop Bottom line is, right shot or not, Rose is a career 31% 3-point shooter. Rose driving to the rim? That's his game.
Sun-Times Basketball @suntimes_hoops Bairstow is borrowing the hands that Carlos Boozer left in the locker. LOL
Jeff Mangurten @JeffGurt Pau Gasol's 7 straight double-doubles matches the third longest such stretch of his career
