 How will Bozzer help the Bulls?

Carlos Boozer not only will help move the Bulls into the leagues elite but seems to be perfect in the Bulls system. You have a Defensive minded shot blocker and hustler with Noah, something Boozer never had next to him. People say Boozer can't play defense but that actually isn't true. He doesn't have the size or athletic ability for his defense to show up on the stat board. But he actually is strong enough to hold his ground in the paint and not get dominated by any body power forward in the league. Having Noah next to him will also allow Boozer to save his energy for the offensive end. A luxury boozer never had playing with Mehmet Okur in Utah. On offence he finally gives the team an offensive presence. His ability to post up and finish around the rim will take pressure off Rose to do all the scoring. So what do the Bulls have to do to get into the leagues elite? I can tell Ronnie Brewer can't be your shooting guard. This is now league where you need a superstar who can create his own shot and dominate offensively like Kobe Bryant or Kevin Durant or have a team of players who can achieve the same thing like the Heat have and the Nuggets have to a certain extent. So having Loul Deng and Ronnie Brewer together will not work against the leagues elite. Guys who could be available for trade that would fit perfectly is OJ Mayo but the Bulls don't really have anything that Memphis would want. Caron Butler could be available next year and if he is he might be the final piece to a bulls championship puzzle. But Boozer is definitely a great move for the Bulls.

2010-2011 preview

Chicago has gone from a team struggling to make the playoffs into a team that expects to compete for a title. They have three great pieces to a championship team now they just have to work on the other two. But for what they have now Derrick Rose continues to improve as we will see him lead Team USA in Turkey this summer. He is emerging as one of the top players in the league and has to continue to grow if the Bulls want to win. Boozer and Noah create one of the best big man duos on both ends of the floor. Loul Deng is injury prone but a good defender and has a good midrange game. Ronnie Brewer is great defensively but has serious offensive deficiencies. Look for him to be the weak link of this team. The player that whoever is guarding him will play off of and help out else where. Korver is the opposite in that you can't play off him because of his three point ability but defensively he can't guard any of the twos in the league. Dwayne Wade, Ray Allen and Vince Carter will all put up big numbers with ease guarded by Korver. Taj Gibson is a good player who showed promise last year. Coming off the bench he can fill in effectively for either Noah or Boozer. He will be a key player against a monster Boston front court, Dwight Howard, and exploiting the Heats center deficiencies.
