I just wanted to know what people think about this. i think that chandler is better than curry, but there's been a lot of talk that curry should have stayed on the bulls.
my guess would have been that curry leaving was a GOOD decision. i just wish the bulls would use sweeney more often... hes playing what, 18MPG and avging similar stats to tyson's 27MPG? i mean come on... i wish that sweeney would take over and get more minutes in the games.
sweeney plays under 20MPG his entire career, and still avgs almost 10PPG and 5+RPG
chandler gets like 30MPG and gets 5PPG and like 8RPG... come on, look @ the stats. defensive-wise chandler is a like a twig and sweeney is like a tree, take that as an analogy.
think about it...

Gotta go with Chandler....
Reason Sweets only plays 20mpg is because he's outta shape and he draws fouls like nobody's business.

Ummm...Chandler. By a long shot too. Sweetney has the ability to be a damn good low post scoreer, but the guy dissapeared after the first month of the season and one good game against the Hawks isn't going to convince me he's ready to be a consistent low post player.

could you imagine if he kept the weight but turned it into muscle? Sweets would be awesome...

damn looks like everyone takes chandler over sweeney...
MAYBE, MAYBBEEE
sweeney could transfer some weight to chandler, and we'd have 2 dominant PF/C's! lol

Look, Sweets has post moves. There's a reason why so many people were sweating him hard when he was with the Knicks. But he is an atrocious defensive player. He can't jump, he has no lateral movement, he gets tired in a hurry, etc.
I'd love for him to lose 40+ pounds. Then he'd be a valuable bench player.
As far as Sweets vs. Chandler? If you don't know how to scout defense, just listen to Kirk Hinrich or Tom Dore. They have both called him the team MVP in recent months. Now, why would they do that? How come 9 out of every 10 Bulls fans can't realize his importance?
You guys listen to all of the TV and radio interviews? Basketball people sweat Chandler, but casual fans just don't get it.

i think that chandler is a better player. and also the eddy curry trade was a good idea because we can get some one like aldridge who is taller nad will be better down the road.

Chandler gets more fouls and 3 sec calls than points. He hasn't improved his game mentally in 5 years....
Sweets can at least put the ball in the hoop. I wish he would get in shape, he has potential.
