No doubt I'd pick Ben Wallace. Peja is one dimensional and that is outside shooting. He can't D up, rebound, or pass the ball. Ben Wallace is everything but a shooter. Unfortunately that is a big part of the game but if you have other players on your team that can do that than he is a good fit.
exactly peja will help them no doubt but he cant gaurd a lamp post. Big ben couldn't score a beer in a brewery but he brings leadership and championship experience- not to mention a little thing call D-fence!
I am going to have to go with Ben Wallace. This gives the bulls a veteran figure with playoff experience. Sure, he cant do anything on offense but they dont need him to. His role is strictly rebounding and defense and he will fulfill that role nicely. He will be the leader of the team while Chris Paul is already the leader of NO. Big Ben just brings a different part of the game than Peja. Now that is said, Peja is going to help NO alot. NO main concearn this offseason IMO was getting a shooter and they did that. They also got a great rebounder and shot blocker in Tyson Chandler. They are going to be a good ball club this season; no doubt.
i think Chandler will be a big disapointment for them. IMO he will play inconsistantly with injuries that never seem to fully go away. But Yes PEJA will help them contend for a playoff birth

In Chicago, he never got consistant minutes. I remember a numerous amount of times in the 2nd half of last season that Tyson would have over 10 rebounds by halftime, and he would play 4 or 5 minutes in the 2nd half. I think that he was under utalized. He has the potential to be a great shot blocker (he is already pretty good), and he IS a great rebounder. Also, there isnt much size in NO so he will be utalized to the fullest. Also, I think that he will enjoy having a fresh start under a new organization. He will do just fine. Nothing spectacular but I expect a good 8 ppg and 9 rpg or 8 ppg and 10 rpg.
