Anyone know what the extent of Leon's injury is?  I heard they took him directly to the hospital.  That doesn't sound good.   If he can't make it back in this series Scal will have to come back.   I'm thinking the less we see of Moore in this series the better.   Good thing both Perk and Davis are stepping up big time.

Yeah they said he's in the hospital getting an MRI. I'm worried, we can't afford to lose him again. :-\

I expect him to be done for the season. Hopefully Scal can fill in and step up.

This is not good. Now we have to see a lot more of Mikki Moore.  :( I hope Powe is ok and isn't really going to out too long.

First, the entire bench was AWFUL tonight, so to pick on Moore is unfair in my opinion. Eddie House was bad, Marbury was crap and Powe was bad (although he was injured, so had an excuse). And why Tony Allen got no run tonight, I just don't get it.

As for the D, if Powe is done, the C's are down to two real big man and only Perk has length. The C's are in deep, deep trouble right now barring a miraculous recovery that sees Garnett suiting up soon. I sadly think the bulls when this in 6 games.

Here is why I say Bulls win in 6. No KG, no Powe and a hobbled Rondo for the next game. Without KG and Powe, our front court is beyond thin.

if scal can contribute and davis/perk hold there own, we should be fine. Chicago's front court isnt great either. without gordon and rose, this series would be 2-0 with two blowouts

I wasn't too impressed with Bill Walker's perimeter defense when watching him recently, but I think he could do a decent job backing up the 4 for a short stint or two matched up with Tyrus Thomas. Kind of a gut feeling, but I think Walker would surprise people if given that opportunity. Obviously if you had KG and/or Powe (or Joe Smith or Chris Anderson or Mutumbo lol) Walker would never see minutes in this situation, but we're pretty much desperate and MikkiMooreFoul is not the answer. moore will play anyways, but hopefully not 30 mins (if he could stay on the court that long. Let's hope Powe's MRI comes out ok.

Caron Butler flat out torched him in the last game of the season.  But given the other options at the 4 I see nothing wrong with trotting him out for 4 or 5 minutes in the 2nd quarter and seeing how he does.
