Bulls had big actions in free agent pool

The Bulls are really busy in the star-studded free agent market thie summer after the flurry of activity before the trade dealine.

Not only did they rid themselves of John Salmons’ $5.8 million player option for next season, they unloaded their biggest headache in Tyrus Thomas. Now, they’re in position to land a big-ticket free agent to play alongside All-Star Derrick Rose, and they didn’t have to dismantle the rest of their core. “In order to create the cap space to attract a max free agent this summer, we knew we had to make some moves,” Forman said. “A lot of teams were positioning themselves to be able to attract a maximum free agent this summer, so we created that flexibility.”

Chicago also released forward Chris Richard, who was on a second 10-day contract. I'm looking forward to see the new scenery of those bulls jerseys
