I know this seems like an easy selection to some — being that some Bulls fans call him “Hinbrick” — or just gasp at the thought of Kirk Hinrich stepping onto the floor.

But, if Hinrich’s not knocking down open looks, what good is the 11-year guard out of Kansas really good for? His body has taken so much punishment while in his second stint in Chicago, including missing five games during the second quarter of the season.

In the 16 games Hinrich played in during the quarter, he’s scored just 6.1 points per game, while shooting just under 40 percent (39.5%) and only hit three-pointers at a 29.5 percent rate.
