"I don't need to be out there saying that I'm a captain. I just go out there and play.</p> </p> "Let these guys take that responsibility, go out there and lead this team, show everybody around this league that their time is now."</p> </p> Deng, 22, was pleased his teammates selected him from nominees that included Hinrich, Ben Gordon and Chris Duhon. -- <font color="#000000">Chicago Sun-Times</font></p> other team news ...</p> </p> [*]Minor injuries to Adrian Griffin, Ben Gordon and Thabo Sefolosha thrust Thomas Gardner into the starting lineup for early exhibition games. </p> His play earned him the Bulls' 15th roster spot, albeit with a non-guaranteed deal.</p> </p> "It's a great feeling and experience for me," Gardner said. "I turned down money overseas. I turned down other [NBA training camp] offers because I feel this experience will help my career. Pushing Thabo and Ben every day in practice can only help my game." -- <font color="#000000">Chicago Tribune</font></p></div> </div>
Surprised that it's Luol and not Ben. Kirk should be Captain, that sounds right to me...but Luol instead of Ben?</p> If I were the Bulls, I'd put Ben at C.</p>

I think Deng must have picked up his vocals durying the Worlds though.</p>
