Yeah, I know it's a trio vs a tandem, but if you were building a franchise which set of players would you rather have moving forward?
I remember in the off-season, most people would have sided with the Bulls young core, I'm interested to see if most people have the same stance now.

Kosta,
If you really want, I can get you a date with Calderon.

I don't know how to respond to that.
Tell him to pick me up at 8. Call me first though.

Oh, but it's so sudden. I don't even know what to wear.
Maybe if you would accompany me and ease everything in, would you like to bring your date as well? Lets make it a night, double time!
This is who you're seeing now, right?
Sexaaayy.

Actually I've been seeing Stephen, not Joey!
Gosh, I hate it when people confuse them.

Should have compared this last year when they were playing like themselves.
Or wait until April/May when they are back to their oldselves (talking about Bulls players).
Gordon has been averaging 24ppg last couple of months and Hinrich has finally picked it up. Deng has been out for a while - once he gets back and once Bulls make their ANNUAL 2nd HALF SURGE, we will compare them and see then.

I'll take Bosh and Calderon.

It would've been a decent comparison if the Bulls had shown a little more mental toughness but because they didn't I'll take Bosh/Calderon easily.

If this was asked last year, I would've definitely went for the Bulls trio.

In both cases you have no first tier stars, so I'd take Chicago's trio then look to move either one or two of those guys for a real power forward / big man.

I don't know why you continue to discredit Bosh as a 1st tier player, I think he's proven otherwise, especially this season that he's a capable number one option.

It's his style of play not his numbers that bother me.

^ You're right he should be more laid back like Vince Carter. That's what wins games.

Nah I was just thinking he might want to develop a post game that is comparable to Carter's, since his game down low is significantly worse than Carter's right now...

Carter has a post game? Last I checked, he was allergic to the paint.

If the Bulls 3 return to last season's form, I'd take them. If not, I'd take Bosh/Calderon.
The Bulls are playing without all 3 of those guys right now, though.

Here's how I'd rate them 1-5..
1. Bosh
2. Hinrich
3. Deng
4. Calderon (should have made the All-Star team, he is sick)
5. Gordon
I'd take Toronto's 2 right now, only because I'm really down on Gordon's game... I just hate his style of play. Bosh is a legit star though, and Calderon is probably the most under-rated PG in the league if you ignore Toronto fans.

Easily the Bosh/Calderon duo
