chicagosports:Gordon is quite a luxury as a sixth man.
Maybe put a deal together with the Clippers for Chris Wilcox. The athletic power forward has little place with Elton Brand and Chris Kaman both getting at least 20 rebounds in the same game last week against Charlotte. It was the first time since Willis Reed and Dave DeBusschere did it in 1970 that teammates had a 30/20 and 20/20.
The Bulls have eyed Denver's Nene, who will be a free agent they can pursue after this season. He's not playing after knee surgery. Unrestricted free agents will include Minnesota's Michael Olowokandi, who last week said after a loss to Portland: "Perhaps if someone in a position of authority (coach Dwane Casey?) would have said something (about foul calls). I saw Nate McMillan, on their side, stand up to the refs."
Another major free-agent center (yes, this could be a bad summer to recoup) is Portland's Joel Przybilla. Other so called "bigs" probably available include: Charlotte's Melvin Ely; Houston's Stromile Swift, replaced after halftime as a starter last week by Lonny Baxter (yes, that Lonny Baxter); Milwaukee's Dan Gadzuric; the 76ers' Steven Hunter, who fell behind rookie free agent Shavlik Randolph in the rotation; Seattle's Vitaly Potopenko; San Antonio's Rasho Nesterovic; Boston's Mark Blount; and the Hornets' Chris Andersen.
Right, not much there. Perhaps the Bulls could make a run at Seattle's Nick Collison, who went back to a reserve role.
