2009-06-02 00:15:00 Hello and welcome to another edition of Big Sports News. We’ll be going to the NBA section of BSN Network! A lot today and it can help you with your fantasy needs! So let’s just get a move on, because we got some good stuff in for us! Let’s go! Anderson Varejao The Plain Dailer reports that Anderson Varejao will likely opt out in the final year of his contract. No one found out about this until this source was said. With Varejao gone, it will leave $6.2M for the Cavs in cap, according to ESPN. Last year, was his best year statistically as he set a career-high in starts (42), points (8.6), and field goal percentage (.536). Let’s see how Varejao does. Samuel Dalembert Dalembert has heard this so many times that he is the problem for the 76ers. He needs to be out and a new center needs to be in. The Philadelphia Daily News takes care of it: “Nothing but action can prove anything to me,” Dalembert was sayingafter learning that Eddie Jordan had been hired to coach the S...
Still Can?t Believe It
2008-05-28 17:58:00 It?s been a week and I still can?t believe how lucky us Bulls fans are. Last Tuesday night the Bulls were more than just lucky to jump over eight teams to win the #1 pick. They were lucky enough to have a new rebuilding plan fall into their laps. In two months, no matter who ...

Bulls better off not making the playoffs.
2008-03-29 16:25:00 This is a point made by Chris Carson and I wanted to emphasize it. My idea of a post season appearance is you either go deep in the playoffs or you don’t go at all. What’s the point of struggling to make it to the 8th seed if you’re going to get beat anyways? Perhaps ...

The worst team on national TV
2008-03-07 01:06:00 First, I want to say that I’m sorry to my four regular readers, also known as my family, for slacking on my posts. It’s not that I haven’t wanted to give you my take on the Bulls or vent my frustrations. It’s just that I’ve been busy. Oh yeah, and I’ve had about zero desire ...

About time for a break
2008-02-15 01:53:00 There isn’t a team that will enjoy their weekend off more then the Bulls. The entire team will get to relax this weekend because no one on the roster is involved in anything. Joakim Noah isn’t playing in the Rookie/Sophomore Challenge, and even Ben Wallace didn’t make the All-Star team. I can’t say that I’m overly excited ...

Baron gives Bulls 40 in their return home
2008-01-19 09:20:00 The Bulls returned home for last nights game against the Golden State Warriors. Many wereupset because it meant the departure of Hannah Montana and others due to theWallace-vs-Noah news. It is always great when someone can have a career night in the United Center. I would just prefer if that someone was wearing a home jersey. The ...

Bulls entertaining in a different way
2008-01-17 01:29:00 Mike Imrem was right in Monday?s column, when he said the Bulls should forget televising their games and start showing the players-only meetings. I say, why stop at the players-only meetings? I want to see the practices, the post game locker rooms, and let?s put a camera on Scott Skiles as he watches this mess from his ...

What?s an interim head coach to do?
2008-01-15 00:20:00 Head coach Jim Boylan, and members of the Bulls management, took some abuse in the media for endorsing the player’s vote to extend Joakim Noah?s suspension for yesterday?s game against the Hawks, and deservedly so. Letting any employees make personnel decisions is dumb. Letting a group of 14-21 underachievers run the show is well? really dumb. Allowing ...

Bulls competitive but still no contenders
2008-01-05 01:32:00 The games have been more fun to watch since Jim Boylan has took over, but the Bulls are no closer to being the contender they were expected to be before the start of the season. The offense isn’t stagnant anymore and the defensive energy is also picking up. Ben Wallace seems to be more in ...

Bulls finally entertaining
2008-01-03 04:12:00 Since the beginning of the season, my greatest concern with the Bulls has been what John Paxson and the rest of the front office have in mind to get this team ready for the playoffs? in 2009. I held out hope that this year?s team could win the Eastern Conference or make the blockbuster deal for ...

No matter how bad, no ?must win? this early
2007-11-28 07:29:00 Well, I don?t think that road trip went according to anyone?s plans. I mean, wow, they looked really bad. Not only did they look bad, but then Scott Skiles slammed that fact home by pointing out how much improvement he saw in a 15-point loss, during a 78-point effort against the Raptors. If fans were supposed ...

Concerned with Big Ben
2007-11-13 23:05:00 Despite the Bulls miserable start, I’m still unworried as a Bulls fan. In my mind, they were simply missing jump shots, and I knew eventually those shots would start falling and they would start winning. There was no logical reason to believe that the Bulls’ young trio suddenly became worse basketball players. I knew that there was ...

Memo to Bulls: season started last week
2007-11-07 20:49:00 Any time the Chicago Bulls would like to join the rest of the NBA for the 2007-08 season, I’d be okay with that. Really, the rest of the league is ready when they are. The typical slow start ran to 0-4 with a loss to the Clippers on Tuesday, and is likely to hit 0-5 when ...

Everyone, just take a deep breath
2007-11-06 04:13:00 All Bulls fans panicking, and unsure about the Bulls playoff chances need to take a deep breath. This team will be fine… depending on your definition of fine. Unless the Bulls make a big trade during the season, we can all say goodbye to the Bulls chances at winning the Eastern Conference. So, if you are ...

Keeping an eye on Luol Deng
2007-10-31 22:16:00 Everything that I?ve heard or read in the media about Luol Deng describes him as a polite, humble 23-year old kid. But for such a nice kid he is creating all kinds of hostility and tension in Chicago. Suddenly, columnists are battling with each other and sports talk-show hosts are clashing with listeners. All of these ...

BEN WALLACE APPEARS AT CLEVELAND HIGH SCHOOL
2007-09-17 03:09:00 Ballhype - Ben Wallace Now Speaking High School Pep Rallies? ballhype_story_widget_99459(tru-e); Mitchell Blatt Ben Wallace Speaks at Homecoming Pep Rally Have you heard of Orange High School? No? Maybe because they haven't won their football conference's title in 30 years? Well, apparently they are well-regarded enough for Ben Wallace to speak at their pep rally. I got this story yesterday.
Ben Wallace Walking in Another Man?s Shoe
2007-03-30 17:09:00 Going into last night’s game against his former team the Detroit Pistons, all the talk was about Ben Wallace. However, this time it was a good reason. Ben Wallace has jumped aboard with Stephon Marbury and is now helping him endorse his Starbury brand by wearing the Starbury II starting last night against ...

Scott Skiles (NBA Jam Legend) vs. Ben Wallace (NBA Legend)
2006-12-31 03:51:00 Move Over, DuckieNBA Jam: Scott Skiles' Finest Hour The Jon Cryer of the NBA? Last week, a popular sports talk radio personality referred to the recent standoff between Bulls forward/center Ben Wallace and Bulls Head Coach Scott Skiles (Skiles, citing team rules, refused to allow his star to wear his signature headband or listen to music in the locker room before tip off) as ?a clash of two enormous egos.? What?? Scott Skiles has an "enormous" ego? He is a short, bald white dude who was a role player for ten years in the NBA. His enduring basketball legacy is that he inspired millions of profanity-laced tirades in living rooms across America in the early 90s with his pesky defense in NBA Jam. Saying Skiles has an ?enormous ego? because of his role as player and coach in the NBA is like saying Jon Cryer has an enormous ego because of his role as Duckie Dale in Pretty in Pink and, later in his career, the quality (or lack thereof) of his screenwriting debut, The Pompatus of L...
