5 Dream Targets For Chicago Bulls In 2017 NBA Free Agency
Stephen Curry, PG – Golden State Warriors
Now this would be the real dream. I’ve already discussed why the Bulls need help at point guard, but signing Stephen Curry would be like injecting nitro into this offense. I can only imagine what a combination of Curry and Butler would look like.
More importantly, Curry would give one of the NBA’s most average offenses some serious scoring potential. We’ve all seen the type of damage the dynamic point guard can do when he gets hot. Not only does he have amazing handles, but he uses them to create open looks–which he sinks with style more often than not.
Signing Curry would give the Bulls the star power needed to bring this franchise back to its glory days. While I wouldn’t go as far as comparing them to the 1995-96 Chicago team, having the two-time NBA MVP on the roster would go a long way towards bringing the Bulls back to relevance. I mean, he did help the Warriors break that Bulls team’s long-standing mark for the best single-season record.

Crazier things have happened in the NBA, but Curry is nearly guaranteed to bring his talents back to the Warriors this offseason. Barring some absurd scenario playing out that sends him to the open market, he could very well play out the remainder of his professional career in the Bay Area.
