League sources confirmed that the Bulls will send Thomas to Charlotte for Acie Law, Ronald Murray and a protected future first-round draft choice, pending league approval.

Serenity Now! After months of Stephen Jackson feeling ship wrecked on the S.S. Nellie. The Golden State Warriors have pulled the trigger on a deal to send Jax to Charlotte in a four-player deal.

The Hawks and Golden State are close to finalizing a trade that would bring Jamal Crawford to Atlanta and send Acie Law and Speedy Claxton to the Warriors, according to two different sources with knowledge of the negotiations.

Hawks general manager Rick Sund declined to comment through Hawks’ spokesman Arthur Triche.

In Crawford the Hawks would get a veteran player capable of playing both guard positions.

Crawford, 29, averaged 19.7 points, 4.4 assists and 3.0 rebounds last season, splitting his time with New York and Golden State. He also gives the Hawks insurance in the backcourt since starting point guard Mike Bibby and backup guard Flip Murray are both unrestricted free agents.

Mario West, Acie Law and Marvin Williams brought some early cheer to a group of 80 kids from Atlanta this past Sunday big time! West, Law and Williams took all 80 of these young kids to see Madagascar 2, bought them treats, took them out for dinner and autographed 80 pairs of shoes for every single kid. Awesome!

Good on them, for being the change they want to see!
