Thibodeau concludes no-call saga, gives Rip update

Share

CLEVELANDBy the end of Wednesday night, he was over it. But before his team faced off with the Cavaliers in a game they eventually won, Bulls head coach Tom Thibodeau had one last comment about Tuesday nights controversial no-call in the waning seconds of the home loss to Indiana.Its an interpretation play. It was a tough play, bang-bang. I thought with verticality, its straight up and so, its a judgment call. It went against us, got to move on, he said. I didnt think it was the officialsit could go either way.Im going to leave that alone, Thibodeau continued when asked if he asked for the league office to review the play. Were up four, three minutes to go. Weve got to close better.
Thibodeau also provided a brief update on the status of veteran shooting guard Rip Hamilton, who missed his second straight game with a torn plantar fascia in his left foot.Hes still day-to-day, getting better each day, the coach said of Hamilton, who traveled with the team to Cleveland. But hes probably going to be a week or two.
