Tyrus Thomas Injured

Tyrus Thomas was injured in a weight room accident and is going to be out 4-6 weeks with a broken arm. I am suprised Tyrus knows where the weight room is, let alone actually lifting a weight. This injury puts a strain on the depth of the Bulls. Rooke Taj Gibson is going to start in place of Thomas. Taj has played well so far and I look for him to keep improving as the year progresses. Another rookie, James Johnson, is going to get additional minutes to replace Thomas. Johnson has had the deer in the headlight look so far as a rookie. He needs to slow down and just play basketball. Vinny played only 8 guys with Thomas in the lineup and since Tyrus' injury, he only has played 7 guys in the regular roation with Johnson only getting a few minutes. Vinny is going to wear out the Bulls by the All Star break if he keeps going with his 7 man rotation of: Rose, Salmons, Deng, Gibson, Noah, Hinrich, and Miller. The Bulls should go out and try to sign a veteran PF to help with the depth of this team. The Bulls may be able to manage the 7 man roation for now, but how long are they going to be able to last?
