What do these two guys have in common outside of obvious ploys to get anti-perspirant spokesperson deals? They may both be headed out of Chicago within the next two weeks. Mayor Daley is going to have to take some action if Chicago’s sports teams keep this up. We can’t keep sending jobs out of this [...]

Excuse me if I don’t cover much of the first three quarters of this game, but  I was spending time with my grandmother who is extremely ill. Thus, most of my impressions from the first three quarters were based on what the radio team was telling me on the drive back into the city. Without [...]

The last week’s 4-game winning streak has given Bulls fans hope for the stretch run this season, but it’s tough not to look ahead to the deadline and the summer.  Mike McGraw wrote an article this morning, speculating on all kinds of Bulls rumors that are a combination of speculation and actual news.  The biggest [...]

The Rockets are trying to get Tracy McGrady out of their locker room and off to another team.  Hell, even here at NQTC we named him one of the NBA’s top douchebags for the crap he has pulled in Houston the last year or two.  T-Mac’s contract is for $23 million this season and it [...]

We knew that this season leading up to the deadline would be huge for trade rumors.  Teams are going to be trying to clear as much cap space as they can to position themselves to get a big-name free agent, or just trying to get something in return for a big name before they walk. [...]

Wait, so you’re saying the Bulls cannot win a game without their backup point guard?  Yes, that is what I am saying.  Is that a bad sign for this team?  Probably.  But the cold hard truth is that without Kirk the Bulls lack of backcourt depth has been severely exposed.  Hinrich’s value to the team [...]

I would have to say watching Luol Deng belt out “Fame” is probably the highlight of my day.  Enjoy the Bulls Totally 80′s tapes! h/t: Rule 5 Draftee

As the Boozer-to-Chicago rumors were heating up a couple weeks ago, word had it that Hinrich had been telling his friends that he was sure he was being traded.  There were no reports as to what led him to this belief, beyond speculation and trade rumors in the media and blogosphere.  Today, however, Kirk has [...]

Ok so Utah matched Millsap’s offer sheet which puts them at $81 million in salary.  That is pretty much the death knell for Boozer’s tenure in Utah.  The Boozer-Hinrich-Thomas rumor lives on. [By The Horns] Some suspended tennis player had his drug suspension lifted after convincing a panel that the cocaine was in his system [...]

I know I said that the Bulls were pursuing some options and that for the most part I didn’t like any of them.  Although I said Boozer would be the best of the available options, I still tried to argue he probably wouldn’t be a good fit for the team.  Upon hearing the latest rumor, [...]

The debate here at NQTC over Ben Gordon has raged on for a while now and his departure has only served to stir it up even more. Clearly I have been a Ben Gordon supporter from day 1, although I will be the first to admit that his game has some severe flaws. Regardless, an [...]

Here are two relatively new Bulls rumors.  Pick 16 and 26 for the Nets 11th pick sounds fine to me I guess.  Then this crazy Hinrich to Portland rumor that I could definitely get behind. [Yahoo Rumors] + [Blogabull] Dusty Baker must be kidding about not knowing his players were using steroids.  He presided over [...]

Gordon, Hinrich, Gordon, Hinrich, Gordon, Hinrich…the debate over the Bulls backcourt has focused on that since Derrick Rose was drafted.  Who to keep and to trade/not sign?  Well according to some extremely unreliable internet sources, Bulls management is not framing the issue the way us fans are.  According to Bulls confidential: Sources close to me [...]

When the Bulls are at home playing in the United Center, fans who attend the game have an opportunity to win a Big Mac.  If the Bulls score 100 points and win the game, fans can take their ticket stubs to McDonalds and redeem them for the delicious sandwich.  I think it’s a fun promotion [...]

There are some important questions that are raised by yesterdays Bulls-Kings trade.  Though it is not the most important question on people’s minds, the issue of what John Salmons game consists of seems to be the thing most people in Chicago are confused about.  Other questions that have arisen are: Are the Bulls done making [...]
