Better chance of returning to form?

If both of those guys were to be traded to teams that would better suit them, who stands the better chance of returning to form (or at least being a decent player again)?

wallace...e might be older but it seems larry is struggeling, coz his body let him alone...could see ben having 1 or 2 good years if he suits the team (while I'd asume chicago should be a good team for him as they have good outsidedefenders and shoot a lot)

Wallace is the only real choice here because Hughes has always sucked.

So it wouldn't take much by that logic for Hughes to return to he less suckiness of yesteryear.

All that Wallace really needs to do is to start trying again and start playing with som energy. Hughes needs a miracle.

Big Ben- Hughes should be in the D-League now, he's chucking and missing like crazy.

well, your question doesn't exactly make sense since Larry Hughes's form is exactly what he is showing this year. He's always been a superathletic player with terrible decision making skills so he has always shot poor percentages, gotten burned a lot going for steals, etc. The two years (out of 9) he was at least a mediocre player were the flukes (one he shot >50 points above his average, the other his foul drawing rates were grossly out of proportion to the rest of his career). This year IS a return to form.

Considering he's way under his career averages, I'll disagree.

Hughes. He's a lot younger than Wallace. Wallace is just going to keep getting older and worse as time goes on.

Figured I'd bring this back now that both guys have actually been traded (and for one another, lol)

Hughes has looked pretty good in a Bulls jersey IMO, especially today.

Good call.

Hughes had a great game but too bad they still lost.
