[From the FanShots. There is really no excuse not to give Tyrus heavy minutes when he returns. I know the Taj-ers were strong in the beginning of the year, but even independent of him there should be time opened up simply by how old and poor Brad Miller has looked this season. Plus the added benefit of hopefully maybe actually increasing his trade value. -ed.]

Notice the quote from VDN

"He gives us more athleticism in the front court," Del Negro said. "He blocks shots and gets us out on the break. He was our starting power forward all last year pretty much, and the start of this year. Hopefully, we'll get him in shape and get him out there."

I feel like we've heard this a million times before. He has those Tyrus answers pretty much memorized.

Vinny, we know what he brings to the team.

NOW PLAY HIM!

Let the hype begin

So what does James like about Wall's game?

"His speed with the ball. He's like [Chicago guard] Derrick Rose," James said. "Derrick is much stronger than he is, but he has some of the same athleticism that Derrick has.

So he's kinda saying Rose is slightly better.

And he's still gushing over Rose.

Advantage : Bulls
