I'll definitely be tuning in to his first game.

It’s uncertain when Bozzer will play with the Bulls hosting Orlando next on Dec. 1. They’re in Boston Dec. 3, and then home Dec. 4 for Houston and Dec. 6 for Oklahoma City. Bozzer’s return will depend on the after effects of the injury and getting in the proper condition and getting timing with the offense, though medically he is cleared to play this week.

We've all heard this before!
 
I care. So do the rest of you liars. I sorta want to see the Bulls stumble when Boozer comes back. Taj Gibson has played very well so far this season.

...honz is right...we want to see boozer play turrible when he comes back...and he will! Most ex-Jazz players do poorly when they leave our fundamentally sound system and sign with teams that embrace hopper ball! Boozer will not play that well on offense with the Bulls, because the Bulls have no system that caters to pick and rolls. Besides that, Boozer plays pathetic defense...and his rebounding numbers will go way down since the Bulls already have Noah who cleans the boards pretty well. Boozer will just get in his way more than likely! Noah would be a good addition to the Jazz. He's a Jazz type ball buster player! Of course, he would need to shower, shave and cut his hair before he could join our team......and spend some of those millions he recently signed for and get those teeth fixed!!!
 
Bulls forward Carlos Bozzer has yet to play this season as he recovers from a broken right hand.

Bozzer has been working out on the court lately and plans to participate in a full-court workout on Monday. He says the hand is painful and sore after completing workouts.

"To be truthful," he said, "for the first couple of weeks, I'll probably end up playing through a lot of that pain just because I'm anxious to get back out there. Not where it would be a detriment to my hand. It hasn't moved in five weeks. Now that I'm moving again and I'm shooting, there's gonna be something there anyway until it gets stronger."

There have been reports that Bozzer could return as early as this Wednesday.

He is wearing a specially made protective guard that sort of looks like a weightlifting glove.

"It's OK," Bozzer said of the guard. "I'd rather wear nothing, but I'm gonna have to wear something for the first couple of days."

Boozer playing through pain? Now that would be a first. He always waited until he was 100%. I have doubts he'll be back before Christmas. On the other hand, he might be getting a little bit of pressure to play since the injury was self-inflicted rather than suffered on the basketball court.
