Add the team plane to the injury list...

imagine if royce white had been on that thing. the first thing he would've done after landing down is file his retirement papers.

David Stern just fined the Bulls $50K for not using their starting plane....

I heard that the pilots initially panicked, but Thibs kicked in the cockpit door and yelled, "Do your job!" and they settled down nicely.

Co-pilot: Surely you heard engine 3 explode?

Captain: I didn't hear a damn thing. And stop calling me Shirley.

This Just in: Reggie Rose says the plane may sit out the rest of the season if they don't improve the engines around it.

Thibadeau must have been playing the plane more than 40 minutes a game too.

Borrowing an airplane? I'll add that to the list of things I'll probably never get to do.

I remember I had a dream that the Bulls' plane crashed after I watched We Are Marshall when it first came out.... or was it the Bears' plane? Idk.... but it was fucked up.

The Bulls couldn't come to terms with the mechanic for the maintenance check. He wanted an extra 100$ that Jerry refused to pay.

As it was evident the plane was going to crash miserably, Coach Thibodeau screamed at the pilots to land the plane by repeating, "Jesus Fucking Christ" to them, every time they made a mistake.

Teague was impressed by Cuban's gesture, as he had never seen an airplane with seats before.

It was later revealed that Carlos Boozer tripped over some luggage, and broke the compressor.

Maybe after borrowing the Blackhawks' plane the Bulls will score at least one point in the next 22 consecutive games. Seriously though, sounds like a compressor stall. Not a huge emergency except that it happened at a critical moment, too late to reject the take off.
