    He's beasting it up right now against the Heat.

    I think the Rockets had a great chance but did they pass on him??

    He would have made a HUGE difference on this team.

    He doesn't fit in Adelman's system. Adelman wants a high post big.
    Go figure what's gonna happen to this franchise.

    I'm shocked.

    I dont know if we ever had a chance of getting him but I know this last summer Morey tried to get him from the Bobcats in a 4 team deal I believe.

    So no superstars????

    And no, I'm not saying Chandler is a superstar but if we had a chance to get a star player, say no to him as well because he wouldn't fit the system????

    If so, Adelman needs to go.

    understatement, a center that can block shots? i love chuck, if you put that ball down its his, but for the players that are smart enough to keep it above their head and shoot over the top he cant do nothin abt at his size

    id love him instead of miller right now imagine him and yao in at the same time...wa wa wa wow

    i need to change my undies now

    So what's wrong with this guy, other than an injury he suffered earlier this month? I guess he's still recovering from it.. not sure how serious it was. Looks like someone we should take a look at. He blocks shots, great athleticism, takes it strong to the rim, and can hit a jumper out to 15 feet.

    Next they're gonna get rid of Yao.
    Seriously, why didn't Adelman go coach the GSW?

    If Kevin Martin and Brad Miller are his kind of players, but Tyson Chandler isn't, then he can pack his system up and head elsewhere.

    that's speculation...the trade fell apart because toronto backed out.

    Tyson Chandler is great with a CP3 and a Jason Kidd, but how would he do with an Aaron Brooks?

    Chandler is answering the doubters, for now. If the good health continues, he will be a nice pickup for the Mavs (who are paying a boatload of salary at the C position this season).

    If I were a team, I'd still hesitate to give him long-term security next summer.

    P.S: The Spurs game was a complete fluke for him and will never happen again.

    Knowing our luck, if we had him he would be out with some sort of ankle injury.

    Man, Someone Bump that 'Brad Miller signs with Rockets' thread. I doubted certain aspects of Miller's game and referenced Chandler and I got beasted to the point where I thought I was watching the game wrong.

    We did have a shot. Not a very big one. It doesn't matter now. What we do have is a shot at Brendan Haywood. I'm not against bringing him in. He can play. Brings the same things Mutombo did when we won 22 straight.
