Most NBA players are jeered on the road and cheered at home.

Not so lately for young Bulls forward Tyson Chandler, whose six-year, $63 million contract does not correspond with his meager production (4.6 points per game, 8.3 rebounds) thus far.
 
"Sometimes you just have to get yourself focused and tune other things out," Chandler said of the discerning United Center fans. "Fans come and they expect the same thing. When they don't get it, sometimes they react that way. That's not something I focus on."

Chandler did not see action until the second quarter Friday night against the Memphis Grizzlies. He had two points at intermission.

Chandler admitted the contract he signed last summer has added personal pressure to perform.

"It always adds a little pressure whenever the expectations grow. But mentally I have to get over that and get out there and just play my game," Chandler said. "If I do that, I will be fine for my team. For some reason I haven't been doing that lately."
