Who knew that Vladimir Radmanovic was Serbian for Scalabrine?

At least that’s what it seems like lately with Radmanovic receiving the Brian Scalabrine treatment on the Bulls’ bench.

“I want to make sure he’s ready,’’ (coach Tom) Thibodeau said. “We’ll see how it unfolds. He’s a good pro, comes in and gets his work done. He knows what he’s trying to get accomplished. I do want to see him some at the three, which I haven’t done yet, but I have a pretty good idea of what he could do.’’

It’s the “make sure he’s ready’’ part that seems to be the key. Radmanovic admitted that Camp Thibodeau is a lot more work than advertised, and he might need to play catch-up physically before those minutes are given.
