Busy Bulls send Hughes to Knicks for Thomas

CBSSports.com wire reports



GREENBURGH, N.Y. -- The Chicago Bulls traded guard Larry Hughes to the New York Knicks for forward Tim Thomas.

Bulls coach Vinny Del Negro announced the trade Thursday. Neither team would say whether additional players were involved.

The Bulls acquired Thomas from the Knicks before the 2005 season, but he only played three games with them. Chicago sent him home that December and waived him in March.

On Wednesday, the Bulls sent forward Andres Nocioni, center Drew Gooden and reserves Cedric Simmons and Michael Ruffin to Sacramento for center Brad Miller and swingman John Salmons.

I'm sure Thomas is thrilled to be back in Chicago - or not.

He was one of the biggest dogs I could remember in Chicago.

FW...We have had are share of the past 6 years!

Many sucked, but this guy has talent. As soon as the Bulls let hem go, he busted ass in Phoenix. Parlayed that into a huge FA contract from the Clippers. Shows you the priorities he has.

Hughes should fit in nicely with what the Knicks are doing. I like it.

Bulls also traded Thabo Sefolosha to OKC for one of their first round picks this year....the lower of Denver and Phoenix, probably Denver and probably somewhere around a #25 pick or so. Still, a 2009 first-round pick for Thabo Sefolosha seems like a steal. Thabo not very good.
