This is Paxsons third or fourth rebuild(depending on who you ask) and if he were to move into a -invisible- President role like KW that really doesn't make anyone think that things will change and honestly I doubt they will. the funniest thing about all of this is them saying that Boylens job is up in the air at the end of the season. I genuinely believe that, that they are not sure if he will lose his job. And that is FUCKED up You can’t say his job is done yet. If that was the case he might as well already be canned (and to be honest...it’s not the worst idea but I think they believe they need to give him the full year and I will at least admit injuries certainly didn’t help Boylen cards). His fate will be sealed pending the bulls playing real well down the stretch.
February 18, 20206 yr On the bright side, Bulls might have Wendell and Otto Porter Jr back this week with Lauri just a bit behind.

His fate will be sealed pending the bulls playing real well down the stretch. Injuries have absolutely nothing to do with Boylens incompetence as a leader of men, an as an x and o's guy. His system is complete trash and the real key is this... even the things boylen is right about (enough of the midrange jumpers!), the players don't respect him so they dont care/embrace his thoughts. Markkanen isnt bad because of boylen telling him to stop shooting 20 footers, but in his mind its boylens fault. He is one of the worst coaches in professional sports and he treats his players like college kids.

Why is it good to potentially win a few more games? This team should be losing every game they can. The worst thing that could happen to this team is they beat some bad teams (they still have zero wins vs winning teams lol) and they sneak into the 8th seed costing them a shot in the lottery.

Well it's a good thing we haven't ever said that before, because if we had said exactly the same thing every year for the last 10 years about that team someone might start thinking that the coaching and training staffs are contributing to that problem too.

February 18, 20206 yr 12 hours ago, Chicago White Sox said: What is his thing then? Yeah, I'm confused. His bread and butter in this world was amateur scouting. It was how he got the job in the first place.

They absolutely need to evaluate everything. That includes the front office who might be ignoring the fact that certain players are more prone to injuries.

February 19, 20206 yr 21 minutes ago, Chisoxfn said: In other news, it sounds like Dunn's injury might be season ending. And again...in Bulls news....Hutch out with shoulder injury (again). Dude starts to show some positive signs and is always hurt. Only good thing out of this season has been Lavine...so I'm now waiting for the next shoe to drop and it will be Lavine out for the year or something stupid.

February 20, 20206 yr Some pretty exciting Bulls nuggets coming out today. One report from Kaplan indicating Bulls are ready to pay good money to a GM, with some believing Sam Presti would have a desire to leave OKC for the bigger stage of Chicago. Another report from KC Johnson indicating Bulls are interested in the Pacers GM (who has done a nice job in Indiana). Hopefully there is some smoke to this as these would be nice signs and really good outside hires, imo.

February 21, 20206 yr Boylen challenged a call with 40 seconds left, down 9, lost the challenge. Lol well at least he switched his under 1 minute nonsense up

February 23, 20206 yr Gar and Pax were both at.....wait for it.... Hilton Coliseum for Iowa State - Texas Tech tonight.

February 23, 20206 yr Boylen had a run in with Lavine. I wonder if Jim makes it another few games. Seven guys out, Boylen a disaster. Only bright side is some front office change, a new head coach, and maybe the Bulls get healthy and show they aren’t as bad as their record indicates so they can find there way to post season next year. I will still say they are a near .500 team with all their chips but when everyone is injury prone it doesn’t matter.
February 23, 20206 yr They should start White with Lavine and Sharp. Might as well give him more minutes.

February 23, 20206 yr I was kind of souring on Zach’s attitude at the beginning of the year but i really don’t blame him with Boylan around. What a hack.
