"As long as everything goes good once he gets on the floor," Forman said on "The Waddle & Silvy Show" on ESPN 1000. "He looked a lot better yesterday, and he's pain free. So as long as he's feeling OK there's a chance he'll be on the floor today."
I want him sitting until he’s 100% healthy. I’d rather him sit out the ASG than risk making this worse than it already is. If we lose a couple between now and then, so be it. The goal for this year is effectively 50-55 wins. And we’re well on track for that. No one game is more important than the playoffs. And we’re effectively an auto-in this year.
or maybe there isn’t such a thing, heh. there’s no evidence that him playing today is going to make it worse, if he’s pain free and feeling much better.
if his back is fine now, then there’s just as much probability he injures it after the all star game (knock on wood). I feel comfortable trusting that if he plays then he should be playing.

DRose is gametime vs. ATL. Rip, CJ out. CJ has migraine. DRose has been cleared by trainers. So barring warmup setback, he’s in. #Bulls
How do you know he isn’t 100% healthy (or as healthy as he’s going to get)? Perhaps he could have actually come back against NJ but chose to sit to be on the safe side. If the dude is pain free, he should play.
Also, we might be forgetting that some of the best in season conditioning you get comes from playing in games. If he sits too long, it will take longer for him to get his game shape back up to snuff.

what if he is 100% healthy?

exactly my thoughts...

CJ has a migraine?
Maybe Thibs should stop making him watch tapes of his last few games…

What's with all the people saying no don't play?

Sounds like CJ has to sit out since he had migraine after getting whacked in the head.

CJ got hit in the head?
I didn’t really focus on the game, I was at a party, but didn’t Deng get hit on the head?

CJ barely got touched on that play, no way there was a concussion there.
I dunno what’s going on here, but that play was definitely a flop.

You could get a concussion while flopping

how the fuck do you know?
he clearly hit humpries’ arm, it wasn’t the chest hit that got him.
he prob did flop a bit, but you have no way to know that he barely got touched there.
Jaina - February 20, 2012
Hope he's okay.
Concussions are weird
