When will Bulls fire Vinny Del Negro?

[Chi_archie]

I think it comes in the next few days

[Wilforth]

Is he really the one to blame?

[HoulihansTX]

Christmas Day like they have done to everyone else.

Hopefully never! Easier to bet!

For anyone that bothers to do a little review on any games... I am starting to wonder here with the amount of losers, whiners, complainers... The reason the Bulls have fallen apart is a complete defensive break down....they were letting up in the low 90's per game...all of a sudden last 10 games they are letting up around 105! Ouch... I am starting to think this team has quit on "Vinny"...

[1800Gambler]

Vinny has no buisness even being a head coach to begin with.

[Bigmikesm]

It's gonna happen real soon. I heard on ESPN 1000 he put his house up for sale a week ago so he knows something. 2 weeks max.

[Brock Landers]

the team has zero consistency, coach makes little difference it seems, same story as with skiles

[Razz_Donkey]

Soon, the Bulls need to mix things up bad. They look terrible out there, a new coach is usually the first place to start.

[lakerboy]

They were okay until Tyrus Thomas went down

In this real estate market I think you may be right

[Chi_archie]

this team had the talent to take the Celtics to the Brink in the Playoffs....

they had the talent to beat teams like the spurs, and go into Cleveland and beat the Cavs....

but lately they are getting BLOWN out by 30+ points and losing to the Nets in Chicago....


Vinny might not be the ONLY problem and is not soley his fault... but he ain't helping motivate them one bit... they need a different type of coach

hell Vinny had NEVER coached at any level anywhere... he is learning on the job

[SportsTerminator]

I think Vinny Del Negro need to go. Chicago has had like 3 20 + digit losses in a row. It's just blowout after blowout. No EFFORT Noah is like the only one who cares. They have so many players who can drive to the paint but THEY DON'T, sad. Vinny Del Negro has to go that team has too much talent to perform like TRASH day after day.

[tullamore]

Vinny's a bad coach, made many mistakes in that Boston series last spring. A better in game coach and the Bulls probably would have advanced.

[KiDBaZkiT]

Vinny is hardly to blame. No Tyrus Thomas, Hienrich has been out until recently and they miss Ben Gordons offense, period. The Bulls arent very deep either, they will continue to get blown out by deep teams like Atlanta and Cleveland. They just don't score enough to win, 85-90 points a night isnt gonna cut it in this league no matter how good your defense is.

[timbo46]

He has lost control of the team...out before end of the month.

[Brock Landers]

this team gets drilled almost every night, man the NBA is terrible, teams go on cycles and can't even be close to competitive

[jonal]

yea its pretty sad after the way they ended last season I thought they were going to be more competitive, definitely not all vinny's fault but...he is probably done.

[HoulihansTX]

Lost by 26 today to the Celtics.

I say they fire him, and they will be doing him a favor. This team is talent poor, and has no direction. Hit the lottery once again, and try to get a great rookie.

[ws1975]

Vinny is a high school coach trying to coach professional players. He is completely in over his head, and I blame John Paxson and Jerry Reinsdorf for not grabbing a real coach with real experience. Flip Saunders was available when the Bulls was looking for a coach, and they completely nixed that idea. Avery Johnson was also available, and he coached Dallas to the NBA finals.

[Chi_archie]

its amazing he has made it this far to suffer the 2nd worst nba comeback loss in history and #1 comeback loss at home

[Kaps]

hopefully soon ...cant bear to watch anymore

[don logan]

maybe Bulls win by 30 tonite and give Vinny a contract extension

[BL]

I'm on the Knicks tonight. The great thing is I will still have hope to win my bet if Knicks are down by 30 in the 4th

[timbo46]

Handicapping logic says take the Bulls, but I cannot. I would fade the Bulls until he gets fired but wait until gametime to play it to make sure he is still coaching.

[G's pks]

I have a feeling the players might be ready for a change...he did have them up for the playoffs last year though...

[MilfDriller]

Firing a guy named VD Negro?

not a wise move, imho. there will be protests
