Clearly, they've had bad coaching too. It's hard to be excited that the Bulls got a GM and now maybe a head coach from that organization.
I still think Hinkie successfully stacked the deck in their favor. The Colonjello's nepotism was the real beginning of the downfall IMO. Jerry C being brought on and then hilariously hiring his inept son Bryan led to the Markelle Fultz trade/draft pick debacle. One can only wonder what a qualified GM would have done with those assets.
Then they had to fire BC for failing so immediately. And brought in Elton Brand who has mightily struggled in a role he seemingly wasn't ready for. The Tobias Harris trade was flat bad, and further compounded by the feeling of being "pot committed" to where Elton max'ed out a clearly sub-max player. Signing Horford to that size of contract was another mistake. But Elton, a big man himself, surely saw his star Big mans injury history and thought this was necessary (wrong as he was).
