It would be a waste of Jimmy G. Buckets time, he's a big time player.

I wouldn't be surprised if he is still recovering from last season. He was practically dead after the Washington series.

Jimmy Butler out of USA Basketball select team with groin injury. But Derrick hits Las Vegas. Camp opens Monday.

I don't blame Jimmy, I would be tired of seeing Thibs' ass too. No one wants to be dealing with Thibs constant griping. He has a right to enjoy his vacation, but he better be ready when training camp starts.

*insert too much sex over the off season joke*

Sucks for Jim, though. Was looking forward to him being part of it with Doug and obviously Rose. Would have been good for his development.

At least he is on their radar, though.

Depth will be important for training camp and off season we need a wing

If the Bulls do, you would be complaining to much to ever hear it.


NBA fan logic we need to trade one of two best players because (Player X) one needs to shine more.

meh- I'm glad he's not playing for Team USA. Turf Toe needs time and rest and more time and more rest.

Just hope Mr. Gets Buckets has ironed out his jumper over the Summer.

To say you're a bit of base here would be an understatement. Unless you forgot the green font, in which case carry on sir.

Sucks we couldn't see him play, but it's best for him to rest after the crazy season he just had. Just come into training camp better and healthy Jimmy.

im good with him not playing in it also. he goes to hard and will get hurt. he's going to be a good player reguardless. I know he will make a jump in his game. he still has training camp and pre season to improve and polish his game. all he needs to improve is his mid range jump shot and post up more and have a legit post move. im not high on him shooting 3s. hes a star with those two steps I mentioned. automatic 15ppg player. we don't need him to be better then deng. that's how deng had his best season by stepping in closer within the 3pt line and knocking down mid range jump shots
