<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">MINNEAPOLIS -- A bout of food poisoning had coach Scott Skiles keeping a close eye on Kirk Hinrich during the Bulls' game Tuesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Skiles said Hinrich has been battling symptoms since Sunday and sat out the morning shootaround Tuesday at the Target Center. Tuesday night, though, Hinrich played 37 minutes and had 19 points, six assists, one steal and one block in the Bulls' 100-98 loss. ''He asked to come out a couple times,'' Skiles said. ''I took him out and gave him a [rest] and got him back in there. I thought under the conditions he hung in there well and had a good game.'' Hinrich said he was tired. ''I just couldn't eat, was throwing up, diarrhea, sweats, chills,'' he said. ''I felt pretty bad. The last 24 hours I came around pretty good, but I still got exhausted pretty easily out there.'' Hinrich's physical ills came on the heels of a recent three-game scoring slump, during which he made 28 percent of his shots (7-for-25) before going 7-for-15 on Tuesday. ''The scoring or shooting part is only one small aspect of what he brings to our team,'' Skiles said. ''We need the other things desperately from him, his energy and determination defensively. When I see him not playing as good of defense -- frankly right now he's not having as good a defensive year as he had in the past -- and that concerns me more than maybe his shooting going up and down because he always snaps back from that. So [defense] is what we as a staff are more talking to him about -- being that all-league type of defender that he has been.''</div> Source
They were talking about this during the game. It's nice he still played, didn't have a good first half and then started making his shots in the second. Hopefully he's feeling better for the Heat game today.

What happens if he wanted to go right in the middle of the game? lol. Would they have to call a timeout?

sorry if I seem immature, but the title of this thread is just flat out hilarious...oh well s#!t happens!!!
Nice picture Swish. Lol, I told Hinrich to stop eating that burrito. That's messed. I think he should like rest a little, drink some sprite, then try to play.
Holy .. Could you imagine trying to run up and down the court having diarrhea? I can't even go to a store with diarrhea because it becomes a bit shameful to be seen holding your a** to make sure you don't crap your pants. Damn! <div class="quote_poster">Swish15 Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">
