maggsmaggs Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 Luol Deng is healing nicely from a wrist injury and should be a nice sleeper pick that many owners may forget about this year. He missed the end of last year and the playoffs with a torn ligament in his wrist that required surgery. The cast is off, and the fact that the injury was to his right arm, he has spent a great amount of time making his left hand better. ''If my right hand were healthy, I wouldn't have my left hand where it is now,'' Deng said. ''I sign autographs with my left hand. I eat with my left hand. I throw a football with my left hand. Using my left hand is a regular thing now.'' Add to that the fact he grew an inch over the summer, from 6-8 to 6-9, and Deng is setting up to have a nice year. Jul. 26 - 3:51 From rotoworld.com This is good news to hear and he grew another inch. A 6-9 guy that athletic is very good and he only is going to be 20 this season.

Over Miami? No, not last year. Shaq played enough in the 2nd round that they could have beaten us. EC and Luol probably put us in round 2, but we weren't ready to match up with Miami yet.

nitetrain8601 Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 I think next year we for sure make the 2nd round and if we face anyone not named Miami, we have a good chance against them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoodAsGould Posted July 26, 2005 Share Posted July 26, 2005 I really hope we resign Tyson and Eddy because I really loved that bulls team and with basicly everyone getting better... it should be fun. Deng is my favorite player and now it seems this injury could really help his game since now he can use his left hand better. Chris Duhon Im a little iffy on. Id like to bring him back but if he is going to be a b**** in terms of money screw it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's going to be 3 years for a total of 6 million. 2nd round picks don't cost much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the footspeed that Gordon has, it amazes me how often he gets burnt one on one vs another point guard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
