He was originally thought to be out for 2-4 weeks but apparently it wasn't as bad as diagnosed. He is in vs the Bulls tonight.

[W0lfy]

Thanks always appreciate injury reports. Just be cautious players just returning don't always get a ton of playing time.

[benjy]

Thanks for the heads up!

[SportsTerminator]

Whattttt Let me check the line now... but thx BlackMan for the info

[bookie]

He wasn't out long enough for his playing time to be cut substantially--I'd bet his playing time is in the 30's. He makes Jennings more effective by both giving him an inside target and better outlet passes. I like Milwaukee here just on the basis of getting Bogut back, also kind of weird scheduling for Bulls. They get back from the West Coast, but then have to go right back on the road.

from what i understand, there's a circus staying in their arena for 2 weeks, so they scheduled away games for that stretch.

anyway, i'm on the bucks -2.5 not too confident though... even w/ bogut. is heinrich playing?

hinrich is out 1-2 weeks!

[Masu485]

nice, a bit more confident now knowing he's still out.

[Memcapper]

Probably won't be full strength.

[john99]

bogut's really cranking up now

chicago look horid as per usual

[Masu485]

48 - 44 HT. gonna be close.

bogut w/ 16 pts

[Durrrr]

MILWAKUE PULLING AWAY, as predicted.

[Masu485]

frig, chi always goes on mini runs at the end of quarters after mil starts them off so well

77-72 mil after 3rd

[Masu485]

ugh, not good! tie game and bucks shooting like shit now

[SportsTerminator]

The Bucks burned me with that OT Dallas game. I won't bet on them again until they learn how to drive the ball to the basket. They shoot lights out 1st half but then the 2nd half it's starts catching up to them and they start missing.

[Masu485]

bogut is sucking like crazy now, missing <9 ft shots

[Masu485]

i fukking hate deng!!!!1 and this ugly piece of shit joakim!

[Masu485]

that missed free throw will be the fukking difference. i'll lose by .5 just because of that missed FT.

[Masu485]

why is this so intense?

[Masu485]

holy shit man, that jennings turnover almost gave me a heart attack!

[Masu485]

oh my fukking god, son of a fukking piece of HSIT IBSASTARD!!!!!

[Masu485]

this is it... bucks 3 pt lead, bulls' ball, 13 seconds left

[Masu485]

bulls know they need a 3 to tie. even if they get it, it'll go to OT and there's still a chance.

[Masu485]

i knew it. i'm not even surprised. i knew bulls would still go for 2. they are still losing now and bucks on the spread is done for. unreal.

[corona]

screw you charlie bell.

should've bought that 1/2 point

FML.

[Masu485]

7 seconds left milwaukee ball at free throw line, missed first free throw. final 99-97 bucks. bucks -2.5 loses by 0.5. im not surprised at this at all. not even angry just numb because from the first fukking whistle i knew i'd lose by .5

[Durrrr]

wow why the f\*\*k did the Bulls take a two? Didn't see it, someone explain.

[SportsTerminator]

Ouch what a heart breaker.

[SportsTerminator]

wow why the f\*\*k did the Bulls take a two? Didn't see it, someone explain.

Bulls down two with about seven seconds to go. They had to inbound from the Bucks backcourt they didn't have any timeouts. Rose handles the ball the whole time until about two seconds drawing two defenders. He kicks it out to a wide open Brad Miller to come up short and miss. I think someone else should have shot it Deng... Salmons... Rose... "C'mon Son".

[Masu485]

wow why the f\*\*k did the Bulls take a two? Didn't see it, someone explain.

there was about 13 seconds left and bulls needed a 3 to tie it (maybe there was a bit more time left was watching on gamecast). so i thought i won, as they'd go for the hard 3 and either 1. miss it and bucks would run out the clock, or 2. they'd get it and the game would either go to OT, or bucks could make a quick shot in the final seconds.

but i expected something screwy to happen as always, and bulls went for two, and were losing by 1pt with seconds left. then bucks try for a final shot, get fouled go to the line, Bell misses the first FT, but gets the second to win the game by 2 pts, spread losing by 0.5.

[SportsTerminator]

99-97 Bucks.

[Durrrr]

Yea I was on Bucks -2.5. I just can;t understand why Bulls decided to go for a two and not a three. someone explain??

[Leto]

Only thing I can think of is that they were hoping to get fouled, or they were hoping to make a quick bucket and then foul and hope the Bucks miss both freethrows, then call a timeout and hope to make the winning shot.

?

they made the right decision.

Bulls had the ball with 7sec remaining only down by 2 and only just missed the tying basket.

[Masu485]

true, there was a bit more time than i had thought, and there were missed shots at both ends before that terrible finale to the game.
