Vincent Del Negro...

Bulls fan here, I was just wondering how good ol' Vinny has been. How is your guys' record? Any thing significant that he's done since the season started? Any praise?

I wasn't a big fan of the guy, but he was a nice guy. His coaching as a bull was discouraging, but most of our players were injured at the time.

Well it seems to be the same here now. I don't know yet that I'm a huge fan of his coaching (although it's still early), but he's really likable otherwise. And most of our guys are injured now too, so...it's difficult to say really what kind of impact Vinny has had. I'm rooting for him, that's for sure.

I have to say that Del Negro is not shy to play the" Youngins" big minutes. W/ all the Clips injuries, Del Negro is smart enough to have the game be exciting.
W/ Dunleavy, I would drive from Riverside to watch the slowest most boring game on the face of the earth. W/ Del Negro, at least I know it should be entertaining.

I can't really say what my opinion of Del Negro is yet. I hope that he can help us win. We just need to get through this tough stretch.

Well i know with our guys he ran a high PNR all the time. the defenders would play derrick really well and he would dish the ball off to noah at the key... noah has no business at the top of the key... lol

or he would always run a 1v1 iso on rose and that would tire him out...

i dont think hes the greatest basketball mind, but again, hes a likable guy. He always fights to the end.

well, good luck on your season.

Del Negro for some reason took Griffin out of a key defensive possession vs. the Hornets... this infuriated me and I instantly questioned Del Negro's competence.

I'm not feeling this guy at all. We struggle to run simple offensive sets, and struggle to get Blake Griffin (by far the best player on the Clips) the ball! There does not seem to be a plan on offense.

You're telling me that I of all people couldn't coach the team to a 2-13 record? We should've went after a WINNER-- Byron Scott.

Some of his moves are questionable, but I don't really think he was here for his basketball decisions. I think he's here to teach the young kids and to get them to play hard.

Griffin is better than expected.

Gordon is much better than last year.

Aminu and Bledsoe both looked awful in summer league and now they both look to be very important pieces for the future.

I think he's done a wonderful job of teaching the young kids to play ball.
