Nick Anderson 4 President 9 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 I came across an article for Chicago, and another one for New York. Got to thinking that maybe those teams could help us out in a 3 team trade. Here is the article for Chicago that was recently posted on hoopsworld. Time to Move Tyrus?...The Bulls are starting to turn a corner, but it does not include Thomas, who logged just five minutes in that game. Bulls' head coach Vinny Del Negro has soured on Thomas and second-year player Joakim Noah, who received a DNP Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KillingInTheNameOf 63 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 I would rather have Noah than Thomas. Noah doesn't work very hard, but he plays hard, and he's competitive when the games are being played. He needs a change of scenery and he's the perfect 6th man type of player. To blow a hole in your plan...Chicago acquired Tim Thomas in a trade a few years back and sent him home for nearly the entire season rather than even have him around their team. That's how big a cancer they believed him to be, so I doubt that's changed much. Tyrus Thomas imo fits this mold. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hilltopper06 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 If Chicago's GM pulls the trigger on that one then he deserves to be shot. I don't care how "sour" you are on a player, you never let them walk for nothing. Cook and Thomas for Thabo, Tyrus, and Noah? Terrible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick Anderson 4 President 9 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 KITNO....I still think I'd rather have Tyrus than Noah. But I wouldn't be unhappy with Noah if we couldn't get Tyrus...and I'm sure New York would be happy to get Tyrus. Here's us getting Noah: http://games.espn.go.com/nba/features/traderesult?playe...4~19~19~18&te=&cash= But I had forgotten about Tim Thomas not working out for Chicago in the past. Granted Chicago has a new coach and appears to be wanting something like Tim now, but I'm sure the owners are still probably sour on Tim. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Natesroom 197 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 why not just cook for tyrus? it works salray wise and at the end of the year they can just let him walk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davcivic 11 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 Would coming back to central florida help Noah? Would he feel more inspired to play in front of a bunch of people that are also his fans? I think Noah would be very good for us. I think he is the type of player we need, meaning a guy that is not really looking to score, he wants to defend and rebound mainly.

Penny Hardaway's Ghost 260 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 I dont think Chicago gives up Noah & Thomas, and especially not in the same deal...I'd take Thomas though as a bench guy, he's got the ability to be a poor mans Josh Smith...just dont see the chips to get him...

Tommaco 0 Report post Posted December 8, 2008 Looks to me like you went on trade machine and started moving just what ever worked so you could get the guy on our team you wanted. how does cook and thomas help the bulls? and what would NY need noah and all them for if they got lee still? trade just doesnt make any sense other than you matched the saleries.

Did you read the article or just go straight to the trade link. The article says Chicago wants spot up shooters at the PF position. Cook is a shooter and so is Thomas. For NY, they get another "Lee" kind of guy in Noah to play in their second unit. Right now they have Lee starting and Curry playing behind him. Curry is not the exactly a good rebounder for his size, so Noah could help them on the second unit. I never claimed this trade idea was the best idea, just one the might help each team in some sort of way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
