I'll be curious to see how/if this impacts rotations and style of play. I'll settle for "curious" tonight. Good news.

Wow. Hopefully this is a start towards positive change.

More to come...?

Boylan is a great tanking (even if it's unintentional) coach. I approve of this move.

Nothing like the fabulous Bucks PR staff to release this news around midnight.

Like many others have said, he was not the main reason for the team's struggles (see: chucker guards) but this move was inevitable at season's end so i can get behind this now. Curious to hear the real story on how this all went down and how they spin this story. Any word on who's taking the reigns? Dear god, please no Jim Boylan.
We're going to turn this team around 360 degrees.

I bolded and italicized the important, albeit misspelled, word in your post.

The Kirk Muller Special. Only me and maybe WEFFPIM will get that, even that's unlikely.


HOCKEY!

I hope this means some moves are coming. Might signal we are not in win now anymore.

Yes but the meaning is deeper than that.

We'll all remember this night when Henson has his 2nd MVP and Tobias has his 4th scoring title.

This is the very definition of taking out the trash. They do it on a night no one in the media will possibly care.

GREAT move. At least we don't have to worry about those wins late in the season.

I was one who didn't mind Skiles in this 8th seed push but him gone opens a lot of doors that were once sealed. Could get interesting. Brandon and Monta were both "Skiles" guys from all accounts. Maybe a new coach won't put up with this mess.
