• Inside Offensive Presence

The Heat may have won it all last year but this season the Bulls exposed the former champs flaws, sweeping them in the first round of the playoffs. Even though former Piston, Ben Wallace played in red this season, Detroit took the Bulls out in the Conference Semi Finals 4-2. During the regular season, Wallace provided the Bulls with a strong inside presence averaging 10.7 rpg, while Luol Deng and Ben Gordon continued to improve and will be back next year with an extra year of playoff experience under their belt.

"Paxson knew from training camp that his team needed an inside offensive presence. Filling that need likely remains priority No. 1 either through the draft, trade, or free-agency."
