Re: [Celtics' Stuff ] NBA RUMORS FOR WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 4

[Mark Piotrowski <markp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I'd definitely take a chance on Chandler if he's available -- however 2 
#1's and banks is too much.

I'd suggest:

the Dallas Pick
our 2nd round pick
Chris Mills
Ricky Davis

for

Tyson Chandler
Eddie Robinson
Chris Jeffries (to make salaries match)

Chicago needs a SF to take over for the retiring Pippen -- and have JYD 
and A. Davis to go along with Curry (if they keep him).  I think any 
deal for Chandler would also need to take on Robinson's contract (or 
maybe JYD's 4 year deal).  I'd gladly take either of them (and play 
them -- JYD as the classic energy 6th man, or Robinson as Jiri's backup 
at the 3 - basically a less talented version of Ricky Davis) for a shot 
at Chandler.

And if he's got a bad back?  His rookie contract is up in 2 years -- 
along with Baker's and Robinson's.  I'd say its a small gamble.

(the 0ther) mark
