More and More as I read the blogs, listen to the podcasts and radio shows, scour the trade rumors, its becoming more and more evident that their are no trades or moves on the Bull's horizons. I could entertain myself with the trade machine and build reasonable trades that Paxson will not be able to execute at all, but instead of trade for a big low post presence or a shooting guard over 6'3 I suggest the Bulls become the Knicks circa late 90s.

Any trade we execute for a scoring presence is going to jeopardize the wet dream fantasy of 2010 and perhaps only midly help us, maybe it could even hurt us. We have become too invested in our prospects and like bad investments I always feel their about to shoot the roof and reach their potential. I hate trading low like we did with Tyson.

But we suck at D, mostly interior D and this run and gun approach is only helping BG and Larry build up decent numbers. My suggestion is to embrace the Noc, lets become goons.

It can be done on the chep scour  the D league and castoffs for some big wide bodies to become hack a machines and use them off the bench to destroy the other team.

people will stop going insid eon us when the realize they could lose a limb.  I want  thugs. They're cheap and we can use them to protect D-Rose.

This blog is so pro-tyrus, we have been amazed by his freakish ability to leap out of the Gym.

But  I am starting to question whether this kid will ever 'get' it.

If I could but the manic energy of Noc into this player I would. he needs to focus on defense and rebounding and hustle plays.

But I fear that he will never be the player we want him to be.

Part of that is nobody is telling him what he needs to do. and he is unrealistic about his abilities. I remember hearing about how he wanted to work on his threes during the off season and how when he was drafted he wanted to play small foward. My point is that he wants to be thought of as a skilled player when his skill set at this point should be a defensive stopper and energy player.

He seems to think he needs to make 15 footers to be effective offensively.

We should not be putting him in that position. he needs to play off the ball, I picture a better ben wallace in his prime. That being said we need to pair him with a good offensive threat.

Are you ready to give up on tyrus yet? What type of player do you want him to be?

Hey I just wanted to start a thread for all the ludicrous trades that have been proposed  from other sites.

I thought about this  cause living in Houston there's a lot of bloggers who want Hinrich.

They're proposing hinrich/gordon/deng for t-mac and a hospital bed.

Its been making me laugh, and making me wistful for Sam Smith.

anyways its good for a quick laugh, they drink the kool aid deep in H-town
