I heard this morning that there was some speculation on a deal for "Big Ben" Wallace. In a move that is clearly for salary cap relief for the bulls. None-the -less it would be a great deal for all you Laker fans!!!
Bulls get:
Kwame, and Vald.
Lakers get:
Ben Wallace
I don't how realistic this is or could be but im more excited than a kid on christmass day right now. Check it out!

as Emplay said before why do we wanna pay 15 million for a backup Center ?
No he is not as effective at pf and he seems like the 2nd coming of Brian Grant ..
Go to Bull boards everywhere and they will show you and you will see all them talking about how his offensive, Defensive and overall production has dropped .. i even seen someone say Stats prove he is the worst Offensive Center In the League this season

I'd love to get rid of Vlad, but no.
Too much for a back-up center.

| Big Ben is a big bust with a HUGE contract. Lakers are just getting Kwame off the books after the season. They dont need a shorter version with an even bigger contract. |

It was posted in the Daily News this morning too. Wallace may not be able to score, but I know he can dunk. If this is a realistic chance, they should explore it. Brown is absolute garbage.

Lakers coach Phil Jackson has always coveted strong rebounders and defenders to play alongside his centers. A tag-team of Wallace and emerging standout Andrew Bynum (once he recovers from his kneecap injury) could raise the Lakers' title prospects.
The deal also helps the Bulls clear space under the salary cap.
Wallace has two seasons after this one remaining on his contract at a total of $28.5 million.
Brown has $9 million left on his expiring contract.
Radmanovic, who is making $5.6 million this season, is signed through the 2010-11 season.
Smith theorized that Radmanovic's contract might be more than the Bulls would like, but it is a good deal less than they're due to pay
Wallace for the next two seasons.
The trade deadline is Feb. 21.

| although I would tend to say no, in one more year he would be a VERY movable contract for someone else looking for cap room. He would be a pricey backup for C, but what are we getting out of Vlad and Kwame? About the same price, and you get a roster spot. |
