John Salmons says that he'll play through the pain of a strained groin as the Bulls make a push towards the playoffs.

"It's not 100 percent, and it's going to be like that the rest of the way," Salmons said. "I have to get it out of my mind. It's going to be there. It's going to hurt. I just have to deal with it."

Chicago could reduce his practice time, while keeping his minutes high in games.

"I think it was better for me to stay on the court than sit down because it would have tightened up pretty good," Salmons said.
