    What do you guys think of this trade Bob Sura and Juwan Howard for Tyson Chandler. It gives some new things. Bobby Sura is the tough Scott Skiles kind of guy who is very good vertran leadership something the bulls desperately need. Juwan Howard has been able to score around 18 pts every year before he joined t-mac and yao so he could be the bulls low post scorer and plus he brings good vetran presensse to help groom the rookie. What you all think?

    i think that chandler and yao would be a good combo, and you really arent giving anyhting up for him. So... if the bulls would do it then definetely

    Yah but look at it from the Bulls Perspective. The bulls don't have anyone who can lead a team and help people out. You need vetran leadership. Bulls certainly don't have that you need vertran leadership to direct the young guns and keep them on track and kepe them from doing the wrong things and keep pushing them. BObby Sura is the tough vertran leader that is definelty the kind of guy a Skiles would want and same for Juwan Howard who also fills a need for them in that he is the scoring power froward they really good use. He can average around 18 pts when given the chance. What do you think? Plus Bulls rid themselves of a huge contract and is looking like a poor man's ben wallace.

    What do their contracts look like? Unless both are expiring soon I wouldn’t be interested. Howard is a veteran, but his performance on the court is not as good as PJ Brown, who we could acquire by trading Chandler to New Orleans, and hasn’t Bob Sura had a serious injury that has limited his play the last couple seasons? I’m not sure, but let me know. Anyway, I wouldn’t do it. It’s not as good a deal as the one the Hornets are offering.

    Bob Sura has 2 Years if im not mistaken and Juwan has 3 or 4, I wouldnt do this trade if I was the bulls, I'd jump on the JR Smith deal thats in place right now. JR is much younger than both of the guys we get here and has way more upside. Not to mention financially that deal puts us in a better place with PJ Brown coming into the last year of his contract.

    Sura has one year left and Juwan has three but check Juwan when given the ball in the post of on the perimeter he can score but when he is just an open jump shooter who doesn't get the ball only 10 points.

    Howard?s contract is not good for the Bulls. The Bulls need expiring contracts in return for Chandler. They don?t need Howard. The Hornet trade is great. This trade is not one I think would be at all in the best interest of the Bulls.

    No thanks. PJ is better than both of them and neither's contracts will expire anytime soon either. With the NO trade, we get PJ, who as I said, is better than both. Beyond that, his contract expires after this year and we get a young swing man in JR Smith who doesn't have the injury issues of Sura. To me, it's easy to see what deal is better.
