Scott Burrell

Scott Burrell had been counting the days to Wednesday's home opener ever since the Bulls beat Utah in June for their sixth title. The ring ceremony would have been his first, and he was going to have his parents here for it.

 

``They were supposed to fly in (Wednesday),'' Burrell said. ``They would have loved to be here.''  Burrell and his family are going to have to wait for the celebration. ``I've been thinking about it a whole lot,'' he said. ``But you just have to be patient. I mean, I've waited five years to get a ring. I guess I can wait as long as it takes for this lockout to get over with.''
