The accounts coming out of the February trade deadline couldn’t have been any different.
Outside the Bulls locker room stood vice president of basketball operations John Paxson, fielding questions about the organization staying pat. Asked if there was any interest in veteran Thaddeus Young, Paxson responded, “No, no.’’
Inside the home locker room minutes later, Young sat at his locker with a much different view of the day. According to the power forward, he was in contact with his agent and was told that multiple teams were interested in him.
Just another he said, he said, and maybe the best way to sum up the Young experience with the Bulls.
