RUMOUR OF THE DAY "There's a movement in Chicago to have Bulls center Eddy Curry traded to Toronto for Carter." I would love for this trade to go down i think maybe they should throw in Pargo to take some cap room from the Bulls salary.
Link? The Raptors would put Curry at center and move Bosh down to the four, something they've been wanting to do, instead of playing Loren Woods in the paint. But I don't know if getting rid of Carter is a great idea for the Raptors...or a good decision based on how the fans may react, either. But what does that do for the Bulls? They'd lose their best center (Davis isn't able to play 48 minutes, anyways) and Carter may take playing time away from Deng or Gordon.

Sure Deng and Gordon are great, but the Bulls have reallly never had that go to guy since Jordan left that super star to dependon the last minutes of a game with Carter the team would have that.

The bulls need to win today not 3 years from now. We may have to move chandler to center. our guards are small and it would give us more size there. C- Chandler Pf- Davis F- Deng G- Carter Pg- Heinrich Thats not a bad roster.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting User Name::</div><div class="quote_post">whenever you have chandler in your roster, it will always be bad.</div> LOL! Iknow
They could always throw Deng to play the 4 a little. Anyways, bad deal for Toronto. They lose a 20/5/4 (pts/reb/ast) guy for a 12/6 (pts/reb) guy. An allstar for a hopeless guy. the salaries wont match either. If Hinrich, Deng or Gordon is not thrown into this trade, i would never do it. Also, the bulls better give the raps a draft pick.

<div class="quote_poster">Quoting DerfZ:</div><div class="quote_post">carter for deng or gordan, curry, a draft pick, and a filler</div> No. I don't want Carter for one. And two, I don't want to lose either Gordon or Deng. They're each potential superstars. Carter will be a problem if he were to come. He'd begin to complain about the losing just like he has in Toronto. I don't want him. He may be a great player, but I don't think he'd work for the Bulls.

Don't really want Carter. He's too soft and he'd probably be a cancer to this team. I'm lookin 2 get Ray allen in the offseason
the closest thing the bulls get to big-name players is if they buy the life-size cut out of the players and put them up in the UC.
i really hope this VC for EC won't go down, because i want curry on the bulls, just not chandler...plus, i'm sick of all these deals with the raptors...now carter for curry? mason, jr. for pargo? pargo already played for the raptors and roger already "played" with the bulls.
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting og15:</div><div class="quote_post">How about Roger Mason Jr for Jannero Pargo, both teams fill dire needs </div> You know that they already did that deal? or something like that?
No it was Baxter for Roger Mason, then we signed Pargo and waived him, but I was just joking since it really doesn't fill any needs for either team.
