    Bulls have fallen out of consideration for TMac and Houston focus on negotiating draft pick protection to complete NY deal, sources say.


    According to this tweet from Adrian Wojnarowski,,,,,,,, whoever that is.

    I feel like it's time to just get it done with the Knicks. Hill, work out the sticking point with the picks and get on with it. I would be shocked if the deal got any sweeter. Better than a buyout or missing out all together

    I know Bulls are out, but hmm

    Bulls management has told Salmons to remain at team hotel as it works to finalize a trade. Won't play vs. Knicks

    Sounds like we have lost our other barganing chip and the Bulls are going another direction. ugghhh I really wanted that deal over the stripped down NYK deal.

    Edit: Unless we have to take on Hinrich now.

    "I guess Chicago could emerge again," a source involved in talks told Y! Sports, "but it doesn't look that way now."

    True, but none of us were sold on Kyle Lowry last year either. DM knows what he's doing.

    Nail in the coffin for any potential Bulls deal now. Hinrich's contract is longer and more expensive than Salmons'

    The Knicks and Rockets are still haggling over draft picks in their talks regarding Tracy McGrady. The Knicks have not yet agreed to give Houston two first-round picks (2011, 2012). Houston not only wants the two picks, but they want one of the picks to be unprotected (with the other pick, the Rockets would have the right to swap). If the Knicks agree to give both picks, the level of protection will still be an issue.

    Sources say the Bulls' chances of getting McGrady are slim, but not yet completely dead.

    Houston is trying to charge the Knicks a steep price for taking on Jared Jeffries.

    Nothing new, protection holding up the trade right now.
