[The Truth]

This from today's Sun-Times:

But turn a deaf ear to the crazy talk emanating from Memphis that a package of Luol Deng, Andres Nocioni and a first-round draft pick would seal such a deal.

You think? Why not add Ben Gordon's name to this Christmas list?

This is PG, not KG, right?

Sure, there's a lot to like about Gasol. But how many of the team's 12 playoff games have the Grizzlies won the last three seasons?

Zero would be the correct answer for those scoring at home.

As it is, Paxson has some tough choices to make should Memphis slip back into the real world when talking trade. Or should he set his sights lower, perhaps on Charlotte's Melvin Ely, whom the Bulls will get a good look at when they visit the Bobcats on Wednesday?

It would seem illogical that the Detroit Pistons, as some have suggested, would be interested in helping the Bulls' playoff position, even if Nazr Mohammed is available. Ditto the Washington Wizards and Etan Thomas.
