Fortunately for them their division is weak. Are the Pacers the closest thing to a challenger?

This is the big thing.  Chicago needs to lose the division to drop out of the top 4 seeds (though they might not have homecourt).  Unless somebody gets red-hot I don't see it happening with or without Noah.  So they probably won't be playing Orlando or Miami in the first.

Hopefully the injury isn't so bad it forces him to change his textbook jumper form. His form reminds me of Ray Allen at the line.

I know they got off to a horrid start, but don't count out Milwaukee. If Noah is to miss 10 weeks, that's roughly 30 or so games. That may be enough for Milwaukee to get rolling and make up those 6 games.

Milwaukee is a solid team. They aren't better than the Bulls, but they may be able to pull ahead of them because of Boozer and Noah missing a combined 3+ months.

Milwaukee has had a tough schedule, so I could see them picking it up.

This is why they signed Scal.

Good one TP.

Wake me when they lose 3 Centers.  Next stop for Chicago irrelevancy.  Injuries as they are part of the game and no one knows that better than Celtic fans.  But as mentioned they can fatten up on their division sans Milwaukee who's playing better and may have won against Spurs if not for Manu strolling before he made his game winner.

Sorry for him but it's a big chance for Aşık. Now he can show his defensive skills much more (he's 2008 Euroleague Blocking Leader). It's a disappointment for me not to watch him as an All-Star  :(

Time for them to stop looking for a SG and start looking for a C.
