This is from this week's Marty Burns column on CNNSI.


Tyson Chandler, PF*
Suitors: Bulls, Hawks, Sonics, Mavs, T'wolves

Leader in the clubhouse: Bulls

The skinny: This 7-1 rebounder and shot-blocker emerged as a defensive force last season, and could be a missing piece for a good team looking to take it to the next level. But like Curry, he's a restricted free agent, and the Bulls say they intend to match any offer. Chandler's lack of scoring ability will probably prevent him from getting a max-type offer from a team with cap room, so Chicago should be able to keep him at something close to the midlevel. But if he and Curry were both to get big offers on the open market, the Bulls might be forced to decide between the two.

Is Chandler just a pipe dream or can it happen for the mavs ? Chandler seems to be the one guy that might put the mavericks over the top. The Spurs collect big men.

Trading pieces Van Horn, Stackhouse, Daniels, and Terry? Big men prospects DJ and Pavel?
