Power Forward.....saving the best for last

In the league today, guards are a plenty especially point guards and having a great power forward is a rarity. There are only a handful of elite power forwards in the game today and if a team was to add one of them to their roster it would improve their team dramatically. Out of the few guys many of them including Pau Gasol, Kevin Garnett, and Tim Duncan are going to end up staying with their respected franchises for the years to come unless something drastic happens and they are traded. Many people feel like this is the summer to get LeBron James but I think its the summer to get a great power forward just because for many of them its their last year in their contract. Top tier players such as Dirk Nowitzki, Chris Bosh, Amare Stoudemire and Carlos Boozer will be available along with a couple of run down guys like that might still have some upside in Jermaine O'Neal and Elton Brand. The Bulls have been linked to many of these free agents especially Bosh, Amare, and Boozer in which any one of them would be a huge upgrade at the position. Having a point guard and big man combo seems to be the best strategy in winning a NBA Championship and the Bulls have a huge shot at signing a low post scorer in the the upcoming weeks. I think Bosh would be by far the best choice for Chicago just because of his defensive abilities and his low post scoring ability. Second I would pick Amare just because you know what you are going to get because he came for the Suns who have Steve Nash one of the best point guards out there so Rose would be a nice adjustment for Amare. If the Bulls can land either one of those guys look for them to make a deep playoff run this coming season.
