Ownerships aren't looking to spend as much on Coaches right now, so I understand why the Bulls did this, but I feel there are better options still out there. I did laugh at this when I first heard the rumors. I wish Vinny the best of luck and I hope his heart rubs off on the Chicago players.

Cheers.

Is Del Negro related to one of the Bulls front office workers?

If we do draft Rose, Hinrich will most likely be gone, I think Gordon will still be in the Bulls' plans, but he also might not, and I'm almost certain Thomas stays.

Lets see, IMO, 20% chance Hinrich stays, 70% chance Gordon stays, and 90% chance Thomas stays.

If they draft Beasley

90 percent Kirk stays, 70 percent Gordon stays, and 20 percent Tyrus stays. :lol:

The best inbound passer in NBA history. The Bulls will look championship caliber out of timeouts. During the rest of the game however? Who knows.
