Which Bulls player needs to improve the most after the All-star break to get the bulls where they need to be (Eastern confrence finals)?

Good question, you could make a case for just about anyone on the team.

Ben gordon = needs to be more consistent
Ben wallace = needs to step his game up to a level were he was at when he was in detroit

etc.

So whats your opinions on this one?

You know what I think is really going to wind up bothering me? There's a really solid chance that the Grizz will decide they don't want to make a move without an overwhelming deal, like a Deng + Gordon deal for Gasol deal, a deal the Bulls would just be stupid to make.

But you know what's going to happen? Because we'll never know exactly what the Grizzlies price was, people are going to wind up pretending that Pax could have made the deal at some price that seems reasonable, and if nothing gets done because the Grizz don't have to make a deal, people will be mad at Paxson because they'll think it could have been done for TT and a draft pick or something less than 1/2 of our team. And people will be screaming "oh Pax did a terrible job, sure this team was 10 games better than it was last season and is sure to get even better in 07-08, but we should have made that deal!" when no one really knows what the deal would have been.

Do you watch basketball outside of Chicago? Chandler is having a great year and is averaging a lot less TO per mins played then he did with the Bulls. That tells me that he has learned to play the game. He will also improve as he is only 24. As Bulls fans we need to admit that paxson made a mistake and that will haunt us for years to come.

Apparently he was okay. The Knicks doctors checked Curry and they said he was perfectly fine. Paxson made up that story about Curry having a heart problem so he wouldn't have to gamble on 2 unproven players.

Eddy Curry had heart problems and is a fatty.

We have Tyrus Thomas and another pick coming up.

Pax has taken this team from a perrennial 11 win team to back to back playoffs. I'm fine with that freak of an experient being over with.

Chandler is a joke. Hes a little hot head twerp who gets dominated by big men and with Curry we didnt have much of a choice. We all wanted to keep Curry here but his heart condition (AKA ephedra) and his refusal for the physical made it impossible.

That's funny b/c I was saying the exact same thing earlier tonight about Kirk being the Bull's Rex. Although he is not that bad, he is inconsistent and he is not the real option as a point guard just like Rex isn't the real option as a QB. Kirk has been playing better lately but he still isn't a game changer.

Did anyone see that horrible backcourt pass? That looked like something out of the Chris Duhon playbook.

How about the Bulls keep everyone and if they don't get a top 2 pick in the draft, they trade Tyrus or Gordon with their pick and get Kevin Durant. The guy is going to be sick. Has T-Mac potential or better written all over him.

it's over for this one. because Isiah has a better idea than Larry Brown of how to coach 15 shoot-first point guards, the Knicks are hovering around .400...which likely won't get their pick into the top two. no Oden, no Durant...I hate life.
