qwerty Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Oct 3, 2005 -> 07:40 PM) Too bad there ain't squat really out there in next years free agent class. Unless of course they find a way to get Ben Wall out of Detroit. Wallace is declining and some team will sign him to an insane deal ( it's the nba) stay away from him. While his help defense is still top notch, his man to man defense has deteriated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Good bye and good riddance. This is a great move for the Bulls as this would have only caused trouble this year for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Here's what I don't get. If Paxson already announced this as a done deal. How come the names haven't come out yet. Have the Bulls been given some sort of list, so that Skiles can talk with Paxson to see just which players he'd want (I'm guessing Scott would have some input and that this deal may of just totally came on like wildfire when something happened between the Bulls camp and Curry's camp). Otherwise I'd think when you announced that he was dealt, you would also announce the new parts and at least sound semi enthused about the new pieces your getting. But maybe this is just one of those situations where the best way to win would of been, Curry passing the DNA test, signing a fat extension and instead the Bulls had to deal him and take on players of lesser talent (although decent).

Chisoxfn Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Unfortunately I'm COMPLETELY handcuffed on this one, but all the details should be out in the next 20-30 minutes anyway. All I can say is the actual deal is NOT one which was reported in any of the many articles which went to press over the last few weeks. I was shocked at this one. This is a post by someone who seems to act like he knows whats going on (no idea if he really does). I don't know if this was announced to a room somewhere but they are just waiting on league approval or something to fully release the pieces?

Dick Allen Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Curry's a dog. Good riddance. It takes playing for a contract to get him to get in shape. Larry Brown is going to be in a straight jacket after about 30 games with Crawford and Curry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WHarris1 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 NOT GOOD Not close.. You guys are gonna be suprised what the real deal is.. Hint: I'm positive more deals will follow as we now have gaping holes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chisoxfn Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 So you guys are telling me that he has inside connections? We shall see...its gonna be interesting. It doesn't sound like the Bulls got ripped, buti t sounds like they gave up one of their starters or better role players. I don't want to see Deng or Noc dealt.

Chisoxfn Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 The hole could be that the Bulls won't be getting a center in return and that because of that they'll have a hole in there starting lineup which will need replacing. That or a guy like Davis is being shipped back to New York (wouldn't make a lot of sense though). Cause I really couldn't see Pax dealing Noc, Deng or Hinrich. Those guys are all a big part of this team (obviously Chandler and Gordon are going nowhere) and Duhon just signed so he can't be dealt, IIRC.

Chisoxfn Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Much better. Put it this way, I have a lot of faith in John Paxson and any deal he makes will be the benefit of the Bulls. He will not hurt the team. However, I can see more changes (signing or trading) before the season opens, but again this is just my opinion. More from that poster, makes things sound a little better. An analyst in Chicago speculated that originally a holdup was the Bulls wanted to make sure they got some draft picks out of the deal (so they presumed the Bulls will be getting a pick or 2).

Chisoxfn Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Time for me to get back to studying. Maybe it gets leaked into the press tonight, but Paxson seems to have this one sealed up pretty good (aside from announcing that it was a done deal). Surprised Isiah has yet to say anything.

WHarris1 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Whether you believe me or not is not my concern at all. The fact is I know and you guys dont, and unfortunately there is no way I can disclose that information without jeopardising my career. I will say this and only this though.. You will be SHOCKED at Chicago's side of the deal. That is where the suprise is. Good suprise or bad? You decide when the details are released. I'm out.

WHarris1 Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 He says it is shocking who we are trading... Trading.. Good shock or bad shock is up to the individual, but by shock I mean suprised that this guy was included. He was NOT included in any of the rumors. I'm scared Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SleepyWhiteSox Posted October 4, 2005 Share Posted October 4, 2005 Interesting speculation. I'm a little worried of what it could possibly be if it's already being speculated that it isn't what was originally being considered...Tim Thomas and Sweeney. Oh well. I will say this though...A big shake-up wouldn't be the end of the world with this team only being playoff-caliber and not really championship-caliber, but if the Knicks are involved I really can't see anyone on that team that would truly improve the Bulls. If only we could find a way to somehow pry away a superstar from somewhere...not gonna happen, though. I guess all we can do is trust in Pax.
