    Looks like Deng's gonna sit this one out. Derrick needs a bounceback game and Boozer needs to bottle the offense he had against the Magic. Wouldn't hurt for Korver to be lights out either.

    You called it.

    Boozer beasted against his former team. Korver, too.

    Korver may have had a better game than Deng's better ones.

    Korver may have had the best game of his career, although I'm not one to judge.

    Boozer's somethin' else. If you can hit him in his spots he's one of the best guys in the NBA at making shots, but if he has to force himself onto things it'll get ugly.

    Usually when I ask for stuff, I get the opposite, so this was a pleasant surprise.

    Mighta been Boozer's best all-around game this season. Thought it was Korver's best as a Bull...26-7-6, yeah, that'll work...way to step up when needed, Kyle.

    Kudos also to GarPax. I wish the Bulls didn't need to lean on their depth as heavily as they have this season, but with all the missed games by their best players, 34-9 just blows my mind.
