What's the point arguing with management about the guy they want to draft? Isn't that one the reasons that management decided not to bring back NBA...
There is a reason that the coaches should coach and the player personel people should do player personel. Many thought that Dougie wasn't getting...
I don't think you can really do both well. The Bulls especially. I don't think most good teams have a dual focus. The future does look like the...
If its a "win later" team, which a Hoiberg / Butler / McDermott / Mirotic core would be, Mirotic is the main guy at the 4/5 and the other guys don't...
Ding! Also, no "communucations problems" with Thibs and Team USA or the Boston Celtics. Both were championship organizations with Thibs and speak...
I tihnk you need to be both. Del Negro was a smiley dude who could get along with most people. An average at best coach though and Paxson still...
Looks like Thibs had good taste in assistant coaches. A "modern, smart" organization like the Warriors sure liked him a lot and just won a...
Thibs, Adams and Draymond with a front office trying to activley undermine the coach during a championship run season and engage in a smear war via...
Too bad GarPax didn't want him back. Another champion caliber coach gone.
Mirotic was the 4th guy in the rotation for Noah / Gasol / Gibson / Mirotic. As a rookie that seemed to make sense. To get him minutes, Thibs would...
Supposedly playing Gibson and not Mirotic was a big problem with last season. If that narrative is true, Taj is a 15 minute a game guy off the bench...
Fair enough, but so many were complaining about the offense and McDermott and Mirotic being shackled and trapped on the bench while guys like Noah...
Other than firing Thibs, what significant has changed to warrant this lowering of expectations? Noah's health should not be any worse next season as...
Somehow Thibs was the problem yet the expectations will no longer be championship after letting him go. Buys more time and paychecks for everyone.
If they brought Thibs into Cleveland, it would be to have a genius NBA mind calling the shots and to have a league leading NBA defense. James...
The players on the Bulls always played hard for Thibs and his 5 year stint was pretty much drama-free from the locker room standpoint. I'd say his...
Same problem as last season. 4 players deserving of playing time and 2 slots. It will be hard for Mirotic to "break out" any more than he has...
Well, I think James is an all-time great so while that isn't the right way to act, IMO, I don't think it really discounts his all-time-greatness on...
Right, that's all that matters really. .500ish and the 1st round gets the job done. Paxson failed at his GM job (from a build a contender...
Because its not professional to emasculate the head coach of your team? Lebron is the smartest guy on the court, but still, there still is a head...
