Rip Hamilton talks being demoted

Chicago Bulls G Richard Hamilton has played in over 120 NBA Playoff games but lately he hasn't been able to get off of the bench.  Hamilton has fallen out of the Bull's rotation and recently he spoke about how hard it is to endure the situation.  Reports have even indicated that the Bulls will buyout the remaining year of Hamilton's contract for $1 Million making him a free agent at seasons' end.  

"It's hard. I have to be honest," Hamilton told the Tribune. "The only thing I can do is be a good teammate, help my guys out. Try to talk and communicate with them as best as possible to understand time, score and situation. Just try to be as positive and give them advice from all the stuff that I know about the playoffs."
