Just to recap, here's the moves made in the past 24 hours or so:
The Bulls signed Ben Wallace (and acquired P.J. Brown and one year of his contract for Tyson Chandler's enormously long/overpriced deal)
The Hornets went insane and signed Peja Stojakovic, Bobby Jackson, and traded for Tyson Chandler.
The Lakers signed Vlad Radmanovic.
The Clippers signed Tim Thomas.
The Hawks signed Speedy Claxton.
Like I said...a whole new NBA. And the free agent signing period hasn't even officially began.
Marlen Garcia of the CHICAGO TRIBUNE writes, "Tyson Chandler's annoyance, frustration and concern over his ongoing battle with fatigue will lead him back to the doctor's office, possibly Thursday, the fifth-year Bull said Monday." Garcia continues, "Chandler said doctors believe his symptoms are linked to a hiatal hernia, which... Link
First off, thanks to Mike for handling the game threads over the weekend. Bet you didn't even notice, I'll be damned if we're not seamlessly integrated over here at Blogabull. Dallas is likely the 3rd best team in the NBA, albeit a tier below San Antonio and Detroit (who... Link
So the Bulls finally get back to the United Center after playing eight of their last nine games on the road (where they went a respectable 5-4) and come home to a red hot (then) 12-2 Pistons club. Who would have expected the Bulls to come out on fire... Link
Big game tonight before going to Texas. The Lakers have a front line that even the Bulls can take advantage of, although Kwame Brown always seems to have good games against the Bulls.(EDIT: Kwame is out with a hamstring pull.) NBA journeyman Smush Parker has been a revelation at... Link
With a loss last night the Bulls dropped to 3-4, which isn’t terrible but is good enough for last place in the strong Central. But even before the loss last night coach Scott Skiles was talking about shaking up his starting lineup, and he just might follow through with... Link
1 to 30 31. Chauncey Billups – We love PGs here at FBB, and they don’t come more rock solid than this one. 32. Jason Terry – No, seriously, we love PGs, especially ones who were able to finish 30th on the player rater while only getting 30 mpg.... Link
Taken early, a power forward can really help shape your draft. Taking a center-esque PF like Elton Brand in the first couple rounds means you can hold off on a center for a good while. Taking a PF that can step outside and knock down a three like Dirk... Link
(For rounds one, two and three, just scroll down) Players already on the team are in parentheses. Team A: Jamaal Magloire (J. Terry, R. Allen, P. Stojakovic, K. Garnett)Team B: Rasheed Wallace (E. Okafor, R. Artest, S. O’Neal, L. James)Team C: Corey Maggette (A. Iguodala, B. Davis, Y. Ming,... Link
The Bulls have offered Tyson Chandler a guaranteed contract in the neighborhood of Samuel Dalembert's six-year, $64 million deal with Philadelphia, which isn't a stunning development given the similarities between the two big men. In Chandler's case, however, it doesn't...... Link
The Bulls agreed to terms Tuesday with free-agent power forward Malik Allen. The 6-foot-10 Allen has averaged 7.0 points and 3.9 rebounds during four NBA seasons. He will give the Bulls another big body inside to go with Tyson Chandler,...... Link

Chicago Bulls center Eddy Curry is tentatively scheduled for a visit with the Hawks on Thursday, kicking off a potential rush of appearances by high-profile free agents. Curry's teammate Tyson Chandler and Philadelphia center Samuel Dalembert could follow him to...... Link

A sprained ankle isn't going to keep Tyson Chandler out of the Chicago Bulls' first playoff game since 1998. The center was on the injured list for Wednesday's regular-season finale after spraining his left ankle in the previous night's game. He had more treatment Thursday, and said he plans... Link
Well, I'm back, thanks for all the well-wishes. They all, in their unique way, affirmed my suspicion that I'm a huge dork. The Bulls are still looking like less of a force without Luol Deng in the lineup, losing a close one at San Antonio and collapsing in Milwaukee... Link
John Paxson on future of Bulls: "We will be able to re-sign both Eddy Curry and Tyson Chandler. I expect that there will be a very fair and good negotiation. There was no particular enlightening moment this season when we...... Link
One of the statistics I have been looking at a lot lately has been the on court off court defensive stats at the 82 games site. Many believe figuring out who are good defenders and who are not is almost impossible. I think its difficult, but not impossible. I... Link
The Bulls returned home to the United Center after 15 days away, and gave the home sellout crowd a great coming home-present with a 107-102 victory over the Sacramento Kings. Hey, 100 points means free Big Macs! In the first half, the Bulls looked like the high-powered offense instead... Link
According to league sources, the Spurs recently came in search of the Bulls' Tyson Chandler. Don't worry, Chandler isn't going anywhere. Eddy Curry isn't likely to be departing either. Even I'm on board with that. With the way the Bulls...... Link
On New Year s Day, Eddy Curry scored 22 points against the Orlando Magic, his second-highest point total of the year. Then on Monday, Chris Bosh scored a season-high 25 points against the Magic, nearly doubling his season average, while teammate Morris Peterson lit up the Magic backcourt for... Link
