A sign-and-trade for Crawford, the Chicago Bulls guard, appears to be progressing. Thomas is speaking regularly with the Bulls about a trade for Crawford, a restricted free agent who is looking for a deal in the neighborhood of $7 million and $9 million annually.
The Knicks would prefer to trade Shandon Anderson but will likely be forced to part with Kurt Thomas and perhaps Frank Williams and Othella Harrington. The Bulls would insist that the Knicks take back a player with a big contract, either Eddie Robinson or Jerome Williams.
"Well, if the players are players I like and think can play and help us, it wouldn't be that big of a problem," Thomas said. "If we take contracts then we have to give contracts. We're not under the cap so it would be a dollar-for-dollar trade."
I could see the Bulls improving with Kurt Thomas (SF)
O. Harrington is a PF/C and plays ~10-15 minutes/game.
Frank Williams a PG from U of IL.
IMHO, NY will want to pick-up the talented but underperforming E. Robinson and not the junkyard dog, PF J. Williams.
