Many callers & hosts on sports talk radio think that Deng is soft, but I think he hasn't exactly stayed healthy throughout his time in a Bulls' uniform.

Bullshit. He's been healthy enough over 4 seasons for everyone to know that he's played below the team's expectations and to foolishly give him so much money. Don't try to make excuses for the guy.

It's amazing how many people fell in love with Deng because of the playoff series he had against the Heat when nobody was guarding him. He is a decent player who really hasn't improved that much over the past couple years. Remember when Skiles tried to sell people on the idea that Deng was going to be a low-post scoring threat?

It's it time to start believing this guy is injury prone? I don't completely agree with TM's assessment of Deng. Deng had a great season coming off an injury and was only 22. It wasn't unreasonable to expect him to continue to improve. Unfortunately there was no improvement up until the past month or so. You were right about him not being an all star. I would have bet that he would have been one. He actually took a couple steps back until recently.

Fans Luol Deng who is a SF for the Chicago Bulls had an x-ray and found out he had a stress fracture of his right tibia after injuring himself on February 28th against the Houston Rockets. After getting an MRI on Monday March 2nd he was told there wasn't a stress fracture and he might be able to play in their next game against the Bobcats that play in Charlotte. He tried to push himself before the game against the Bobcats that play in Charlotte but there was too much pain. Luol Deng the SF that signed a $71M contract last summer had a CT scan today before the Bulls played the Warriors and won 110-88 and found out that he did have a stress fracture. Luol Deng will likely miss the rest of the season because of his injury and the Bulls are going to miss him while they are fighting for the 8th and last playoff spot in the Eastern Conference.

Yes, but which famous person does he look like?

Well Ivan, I can't be sure about that. But what I am sure about is that Bulls guard John Salmons is a dead ringer for Wesley Snipes, the star actor who starred in such films as "White Men Can't Jump", "Jungle Fever", and "Passenger 57" in the early 1990s.

One more question. Are you Jewish?

This guy is physically and mentally soft--and he's not that skilled or talented. Dump Deng!

No
