“I’m definitely feeling a lot better,” …

“I’m definitely feeling a lot better,” Carter said as the freshmen and sophomores prepared for practice. Continuously doing therapy. I want to be back the next game. That’s what I’m shooting for right now. I don’t know if that’s going to happen; that’s definitely what I’m shooting for.” The Bulls are hoping that Carter as well as Otto Porter Jr. and Lauri Markkanen will return to play during the next week or two and the Bulls can take a shot and make one final push for that long discussed playoff goal for this season. Carter still believes it’s possible despite the season of setbacks and disappointments. Plus, Carter said after a shaky start he’s on board with coach Jim Boylen.

Do you think Denzel Valentine is going …

Do you think Denzel Valentine is going anywhere before trade deadline? – Brian H. I think the chances were greater before all the injuries. That said, he’s clearly not in the team’s long-term plans. So if the right deal presents itself, management would move off him as quickly as Jim Boylen has. The 76ers made moves late Wednesday to address shooting, so that possible destination is likely out. Time is growing short.

This Raptors announcer calls out Jim Boylen for delaying end of game on Super Bowl Sunday

Somebody needs to send Jim Boylen home.

It’s Super Bowl Sunday. The game kicks off at 6:30 p.m. Eastern Time. Literally everyone in the world knows this unless you live under a rock.

Apparently, Chicago Bulls coach Jim Boylen lives under a rock.

The Bulls were being blown out by 25 against the Raptors late in the fourth quarter with just over a minute left in the game and… Boylen calls a timeout. A whole timeout. Down by 25. I wish I were joking.

Raptors announcer Jack Armstrong was completely fed up with Boylen. I’ve never heard someone more ready to get out of a place in my life. Listen to this guy.

“Jim Boylen, what are you doing? What strategy are you talking? It’s a 25 point blowout, there’s a minute and four left, it’s Super Bowl Sunday. I want to get out of here.” 

So I’m normally on the side of the coach who is just doing his job and trying to coach his guys up. But, fam, you’re down TWENTY FIVE.

Ain’t no timeout helping you. If the NBA were PlayStation, he’d be off the sticks right now. Once you’re down 21 points, it’s a wrap. Don’t call a timeout. Just quit the game.

That’s what Boylen needs to do here. Quit the game. Everyone’s Sunday evening will be so much better for it.
