Face Facts Mike Dunleavy Jr. Is the "glue guy" on this team.

if i didn't know i could just search for their names and bios but would that make it any more/less true? Funk didn't disagree... it's not that hard though MDJ gets lots of loose balls, would have played korver better with his long wingspan and rebounds well for a wing...role players can be "glue guys"...or else they wouldn't be "glue guys" they would just be "all star" type players....

Anyone know how long he's out for? I don't remember seeing what sidelined him in the first place...

I don't know how long he's out for but what I do know is since he's been out we've struggled..with him and McDermott out we only have 2 shooters to space the floor (Mirotic/Brooks).

Better to have these injuries now than later I guess..I'll be concerned more about how were playing if we are still playing like this in the second half of the season.

me and stacy are on pins and nettles waiting for this guy to come back

Wrong. Joakim Noah is the glue guy, his energy and leadership is what helped make the bulls great defensively as a unit. Him being hurt (a lot) is really killing this team, because he's not bringing the energy, he's not bringing the spark.

Offense is not this teams problem. They're not great offensively, and losing Dun makes them a little worse, but they are AWFUL defensively. They're not going win many games giving up over 100 points a game, that's not Bulls basketball.

Get well Jo, we need you.
