|
| | | CHARLOTTE: GUARDS: RAMON SESSIONS will have to adjust to a major downgrade in teammates, but he has the kind of versatile offensive skill set to be the focal point of this offense . . . The athletic GERALD HENDERSON has made strides the past two seasons. Realistically, his offensive skills are those of a No. 4 or 5 option . . . Coach Mike Dunlap is high on KEMBA WALKER, who was sometimes overwhelmed as a rookie. With a few new sets built in for him, he could thrive as a sixth man getting starter's minutes . . . BEN GORDON won't overtake Henderson, but should see big minutes as the Cats' only shooter . . . REGGIE WILLIAMS is a D-League talent . . . MATT CARROLL, in the final year of his $27 million deal, symbolizes everything that's gone wrong under Michael Jordan. FORWARDS: Drafting MICHAEL KIDD-GILCHRIST was as much about changing the losing culture as it was adding a piece they needed. MKG's statistical output is a question mark, but he'll see big minutes as a defensive stopper and intangibles guy . . . This team is seriously lacking in the post, where they may have no choice but to play TYRUS THOMAS for significant minutes. The talented but uber-underachieving big man claims to have added 20 pounds of muscle in the offseason. If nothing else, they might showcase him in a desperate attempt to get some trade value . . . Rookie JEFFERY TAYLOR figures to make the team and has the versatility and athleticism to be a respectable second-unit guy. CENTERS: Charlotte sees BISMACK BIYOMBO as a franchise cornerstone. He can certainly rebound and block shots, but his offense is atrocious . . . BRENDAN HAYWOOD brings a veteran presence. At his age he can't go more than 15 or so minutes per night . . . BYRON MULLENS never saw a shot he didn't like. He'll get one more chance to prove he's an NBA rotation player, able to play the four or five . . . DeSAGANA DIOP is doing those things that DeSagana Diop does. | | CHICAGO: GUARDS: The best guess on DERRICK ROSE is a February return. But an ACL injury usually isn't 100 percent until the second full year back . . . With Rose out, KIRK HINRICH figures to play heavy minutes early. He's a defensive specialist who will pass and watch on offense . . . NATE ROBINSON could push Hinrich for minutes. He's the offensive half of that platoon, but Thibodeau almost always leans defense . . . RICHARD HAMILTON will carry a bigger offensive load while Rose is recovering. He's a shadow of his former self . . . MARCO BELINELLI is a nice addition. He's solid defensively, and he brings the long-range shooting Chicago lacks. Don't be surprised if he pushes Hamilton . . . Rookie MARQUIS TEAGUE will mostly sit and watch this year. FORWARDS: After avoiding wrist surgery, LUOL DENG should be Chicago's top scorer while Rose is out. He's the only one on this team who even has a chance to generate his own offense . . . CARLOS BOOZER continues to be a major disappointment. In the past it's been his atrocious defense, but now he's taken a step back offensively as well. He may score more with Rose out, but he'll continue to sit late in close games . . . TAJ GIBSON should be in for a bigger role. With Omer Asik gone, he's one of only two defensively capable bigs on this roster . . . VLADIMIR RADMANOVIC will try to replace some of the three-point shooting they lost when Kyle Korver left . . . JIMMY BUTLER has a puncher's chance at a rotation spot after a good summer. CENTERS: JOAKIM NOAH was still working his way back from that badly sprained ankle this summer. His durability is questionable, but the Bulls will have to lean on Noah for more minutes now that Omer Asik is gone . . . NAZR MOHAMMED steps into Asik's role as Noah's backup. But while Asik was an active defender, Mohammed is more of just a big body with six fouls to give. |

*Bobcats-Bulls Preview* =======================
By TAYLOR BECHTOLD STATS Writer
Charlotte (7-23) at Chicago (16-12), 3:00 p.m. EDT
If they hope to finally snap their lengthy skid, the Charlotte Bobcats must find a way to be more competitive on the road.
For the Chicago Bulls, back-to-back games against two of the NBA's bottom feeders might be just what they needed to get back on track.
The Bobcats will try to avoid their 19th consecutive loss on Monday night when they visit the Bulls, who have won five straight in the series.
Charlotte (7-23) is one loss away from becoming the fourth team since 1986-87 to go winless in at least 16 games in a month. The Bobcats have already done it once, going 0-16 in April. Cleveland was 0-16 in January of 2010-11 and Vancouver went 0-17 in March of 1995-96.
Charlotte, which hasn't won since Nov. 24 at Washington, is also closing in on its franchise-record 23-game losing streak at the end of the 2011-12 season.
"Eventually we are our own solution," coach Mike Dunlap said. "We can't look external."
The Bobcats appeared as though they might stop the ugly slide Saturday night building a 21-point first-half lead, but New Orleans rallied for a 98-95 win.
Now the Bobcats hit the road, where they've been especially futile during their losing streak. They've dropped nine in a row there by an average of 17.4 points, compared to 9.3 at home over that span.
The Bulls (16-12) are looking for their fourth home win in five games after halting a two-game losing streak on Saturday night with an 87-77 win over league-worst Washington.
Chicago has won five of six against Charlotte at the United Center, including a 95-89 victory in January last season.
Richard Hamilton missed one of Chicago's three wins against the Bobcats in 2011-12, but scored 20 or more points in his two games. Hamilton returned to action on Saturday, finishing with nine points in 15 minutes after missing 12 games because of a torn plantar fascia in his left foot.
"We need his minutes. We need his shots. We need his points," coach Tom Thibodeau said.
Marco Belinelli, who started during Hamilton's absence, made a smooth transition to the bench with 17 points against the Wizards. Belinelli has averaged 16.3 points over his last 12 contests.
Despite battling an ankle injury, Luol Deng is expected to start after scoring 11 points in 37 minutes versus Washington.
While the Bulls have averaged just 86.3 points in their last three, they should be able to find open looks against a Charlotte team that has allowed a league-worst 108.6 points in December.
Hakim Warrick has given the Bobcats a boost since moving into the starting lineup, averaging 14.3 points and 7.7 rebounds in three games.
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist expects to be ready after scratching the cornea of his right eye while diving for a loose ball on Saturday. The No. 2 overall pick had 22 points on 11-of-14 shooting, but had only four points in limited action following the injury.
"The thing with MKG that is incredible, and typical, is that he just played through it," Dunlap said.
Charlotte, though, has averaged just 90.7 points while shooting 39.5 percent from the field on the road since its last win.
It doesn't get easier against the Bulls, who rank among the NBA leaders in defensive scoring (91.5) and field goal percentage (42.9).
