    Doesn't hurt the Knicks' 2010 room, makes Krypto-Nate a bit more expendable.

    Thomas and James are expirings this year, iirc...CHI gets 12M in salary savings next year and someone to play a bit of PF for them, by reducing a bit of logjam at PG/SG.

    EDIT: I didn't Recall Correctly. Thomas and James (PO) are both under contract for next year.

    Didn't the Bulls bench Tim Thomas for an entire season for insubordination?

    If you can't play for D'Antoni, you can't play for anybody.

    That pretty much sums it up. All three expire in summer of 2010 and D'Antoni gets another guard to throw out there to jack up 3s, while getting rid of a fat waste of Jerome James.

    Wasn't Tim Thomas traded for Larry Hughes before? I think Philly and NJ did the trades. Now they are traded for each other again?

    Larry is a great fit for the Knicks. He is a volume shooter who is not nearly as good a player as he thinks he is.

    He might be garbage, but his contract is a hell of a trading chip next season.
