Chicago Bulls operations chief John Paxson is prepared to let Eddy Curry and Tyson chandler play out their contracts and become restricted free agents if they won't too much money next summer

"If a guy thinks he's a max player, you risk absolutely nothing by letting him play [without an extension] that fourth year because you can always match it,'' Paxson said. ''It makes some sense from our end to let the guy play that fourth year out and let the market dictate."
