In this day and age, a coach like that wears out his welcome after a while. Sad, but it is what it is. Players are pussies now. Have to "protect your investment."

Same with Skiles. Great coaches, but too old school to spend too long at one stop in today's NBA.

Well Thibs basically ignored his offense. Wasn't open to the idea of bringing in anyone with new ideas. That's an ego problem. I wouldn't bother hiring him if I were a team like New Orleans.

Agree. Not sure what LB is smoking. This is far from a complete lineup. Rose is a china doll pansy, Gasol plays zero D and loses everywhere he goes, Butler might stay, might not, but he's had issues with Rose, Noah is offensively challenged, bench is non-existent, etc. Team is a mess.

Agree here. They have to blow it up and try to build around Butler.

Clueless haters as usual, nothing to see here.

Hell yeah, this is a great move and makes a lot of sense, excited to see what Vinny will do this time around.

how was it coaching ? Rose had issues, as usual, Gasol is almost done, and Noah is waning.
Poor execution is not on the coach. There isn't a coach alive who could have made that
Bull team beat the Cavs.

Did you ever see the Bulls execute an offensive play out of a time out that wasn't isolation? Thibs has no clue on how to run an offense. He took offense to being told to get an offensive coach on the sideline. If he had, he may still be the coach today. Today's nba isn't about trying to win every regular season game....it's about having a healthy squad when it matters.....in the playoffs. Good luck with that when your running the starters 40 minutes a game October-April.
