Golden Nuggets (11-10)
Some links for your reading enjoyment ...
Thanks to reader nohoops4u for these two Bulls articles:
-K.C. Johnson of the Chicago Tribune talks about the Bulls not wanting to burn out their players early in the season.
On Saturday against the Bobcats, Luol Deng played 47 minutes and 12 seconds, John Salmons played 42:35 and Joakim Noah played 40:37.
It's tiring even typing that sentence.

-K.C. Johnson's Bulls Mailbag:
As for Tyrus, my feeling is unless he's completely killing you at both ends, he has to play at least 30 minutes every night this season. Has to. You have to let this guy play through mistakes and see what you have. Even if it's just to showcase him until the February trading deadline. I thought Tyrus had a great offseason and was having a good preseason and I think Vinny's decision to not start Tyrus when he returned from his hip injury started the ball rolling downhill badly. Time to Sisyphus it and let the dude play. And, yes, I just used Sisyphus as a verb like you used Cedric as one.

-Benjamin Hochman of the Denver Post writes about K-Mart's eager return:
Tonight is the fifth game of the Nuggets' road trip, but Kenyon Martin spoke Monday as if it's the fifth game of a playoff series."I'm going to play, man — no matter how I feel," said Martin, who sustained a left leg bruise on Friday in Miami. "We lost two games in a row. Bottom line, we've got to stop the bleeding. I think my presence on the court will go a long way."

Would they really let KMart play?
They might just give him a cortisone shot and the OK to run, as long as its just a bruise.
I hope that if he does play, that he brings an increased intensity with the injury – not a decrease and timidness he displayed after the micro-fracture surgery.
Kenyon is going to be KEY this year to a good season. Especially if he can continue to amp up his effort on the glass.

I want you back, Kmart.
But please make sure that you’re healthy. Dont need you out for longer later in the year.
Hopefully JR drops 20 tonight and has no turnovers so GK will play him.
