View Photo »Things have changed a little bit, the way we’re playing a little bit, but it’s still the same team. We’re still playing hard, but give credit to the Sixers. They’ve done a good job, especially in the fourth quarter. They took one away from us at our place
In a series like this without Derrick Rose [torn ACL] and you think of their three principle scorers, you're talking [Carlos] Boozer, you're talking about Rip Hamilton, and Luol Deng
It's been injured the whole year ... I took a tough fall there. I've been falling on it all year. It's been tough. I know I can play with it. So when something like that happens, I just have to get up and keep going.
Derrick Rose and Luol Deng missed games due to injury and they still had the best record in the NBA. Coach Thibs did a great job.
We always had a positive mindset and guys were rehabbing, trying to get back ... Going into the playoffs, we felt great. Now, even though we're down 3-1, the belief is still in here. We still have the fight. Those guys aren't coming back. Guys have stepped up in the past, knowing that guys are down. We ...
La pelota no alcanzó el aro después de que yo la taponara y Luol Deng hizo la gran jugada. Merecíamos ganar esta noche, pero (los Bulls) hicieron la jugada del triunfo
It was a tough loss, but I think this group in here remains confident ... We're playing short-handed, but we have a team that's going to fight and scrap for everything. We have to clean up a few things before Game 4.
The team that can make the strongest case for Orlando to depart from its risky strategy of holding onto Howard are the Bulls, who could offer 7-footer Omer Asik, Luol Deng and Carlos Boozer for Howard and Hedo Turkoglu, sources said. The Bulls also could offer a valuable first-round pick from Charlotte ...
We've been through a lot all year ... You just have to fight your way out of it. Even if we have one guy left, we're still going to play. It's a series. They have the momentum right now. But we have guys who play hard. If one guy is out, the next guy steps in. We'll be fine.
NBA source notes probably most sensible GSW trade is Ellis for Luol Deng & a few people on both teams like it. But Bulls won't do it.
We’ve got guys playing with a lot of injuries ... Jo tried to give it a go, and everyone could see it. He was having a hard time. He’s on crutches. We don’t know what his status is yet, but most likely he won’t be able to go.
Bulls doing a good job hanging in, but I have a feeling they will come up short. If only Luol Deng weren’t hurt …
We have guys who play with a lot of injuries ... Jo tried to give it a go to see where it's at. Everyone could see it. He was having a hard time.
It's my decision ... It's totally my decision.
We got guys that are playing with a lot of injuries
We’ve been through it before
We have to get stops and stop them from getting points in transition
We still have guys — C.J., (John) Lucas — who can play pick-and-roll ... We just have to do what we do and not worry so much what Philly is trying to do. We've played with this lineup and these guys all throughout the year. We won a lot of games with them.
A lot has been going on ... It's been that kind of year. (Richard Hamilton) missed games. I tore my wrist and we thought it was for the season. I came back and now Derrick. It's been up and down for all of us.
We trust the system ... It's not one guy who's going to try to come out and take the load by himself. We want to do it as a team. All year, we always believed that for us to win games, (we have) to rely on our defense.
We’re always going to play hard ... We’re not going to listen to what’s going on outside the team. We really believe in each other. We’re disappointed in the last game. We have to try to get that momentum back. We’re fine. We’re going to play hard. When things aren’t going your way, you come out and do ...
We’ve been through tougher things than this ... I know how everyone feels. We’ve got a lot of guys who are fighters. We’re going to fight our way out of this.
No one is going to feel sorry for us ... This is our job. We're grown men. We have to figure it out.
Derrick is not here. This is a different team ... Go back and watch how we won those games (without Rose). It's not one guy who has to go out of character. We're a team and we'll get it done together.
We’re not going to make any excuses
