The Bulls are unlikely to trade forward Tyrus Thomas, unless they can deal him as a part of a package for a guy like Chris Bosh or Carlos Boozer.

Thomas was one of the heroes in Chicago's Game 1 win over Boston, but disappeared in the next six games of the first-round series.

While the Bulls were disappointed in Thomas' overall performance in the postseason, they are happy with the strides the third-year player made this season.
