Don't think people ready for that, kuz I know I'm not

 

[coldcity]

That Bulls press release, tho

departure from culture bs

 

[freeze]

chances harden comes back beardless?

i lowkey mentioned that beginning of the game yesterday to my boy. like...over-under jimmy shaves the beard if they lose?


idk if he can though since they have so much vested into it. the toys and the pin on beard they sell. He'd have to do it before the fiscal yr starts lol.

imagine not being able to shave still they say you can.

 

[abubakr shaheed]

Thibs should reunite with Doc. Associate head coach and defensive coordinator. Do it Ballmer!

he would be best served as an assistant. hes way out of touch with today's game/players to be a head coach.

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

Thibs is a good coach.

But he also has a limit on how far he can go.

I wonder how this is gonna pan out.

I don't think he has a limit. Give him a relatively healthy team and see how it goes

I'd take him for the Pels over Gentry and possibly JVG

Just tell him to take it easy on the minutes 

 playing in the west is a lot different though

 

[joeyxfresco]

I hope Thibbs comes back to Boston as an assistant. If he chooses to be an assistant again I'm pretty sure he'll follow Doc tho

almost like denying a # change because they have so many printed out & he'd have to comp them

having to buy tons of beard signs/pins/shirts etc

I guess once that rumor floated, the Bulls had to take action.

Nicely done floating that rumor Tibbs. Got paid and get a new gig.

 

[everysingletime]

Kinda glad Thibs is gone.

Bulls just need a new look.

Now if we can only stockpile on athletic 3s so we can mimic this GS defense

[georgescorewell]

Not-so-Bullish: Kerr eyes title as Jackson drifts further away

Saw on the NYP that the Knicks may be interested in Milsap + Carroll.

I mean... *shrugs*

BIG summer ahead for the Knicks (duh). No clue what direction they're headed regarding FA decisions etc.

Man that triangle **** is dead.

Phil coached some of the best players the game has ever seen.

 

[johnnyredstorm]

This is going to snowball into the Bulls blowing this team up in the coming years.

 

[trueprada]

coty

 

 Among coaches with at least 100 games coached, Tom Thibodeau has the 8th-best win pct all time

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Bulls will never win a ring with this ownership/management team.

 

[coldcity]

This is going to snowball into the Bulls blowing this team up in the coming years.

started when they let ron adams go ..... hopefully the blowup will be 2-3 years down the line

 

[pmatic]

Wow at the press release by the Bulls on the firing.

Talk about letting your feels out.

pass on Millsap, i'll take Carroll for the right price

tbh they should be interested in every FA...99% of the players on the market would be upgrades

Chicago Bulls General Manager Gar Forman announced today that Tom Thibodeau will not be retained as the team’s head coach.

Chicago Bulls Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf said, “The Chicago Bulls have a history of achieving great success on and off the court. These accomplishments have been possible because of an organizational culture where input from all parts of the organization has been welcomed and valued, there has been a willingness to participate in a free flow of information, and there have been clear and consistent goals. While the head of each department of the organization must be free to make final decisions regarding his department, there must be free and open interdepartmental discussion and consideration of everyone's ideas and opinions. These internal discussions must not be considered an invasion of turf, and must remain private. Teams that consistently perform at the highest levels are able to come together and be unified across the organization-staff, players, coaches, management and ownership. When everyone is on the same page, trust develops and teams can grow and succeed together. Unfortunately, there has been a departure from this culture. To ensure that the Chicago Bulls can continue to grow and succeed, we have decided that a change in the head coaching position is required. Days like today are difficult, but necessary for us to achieve our goals and fulfill our commitments to our fans. I appreciate the contributions that Tom Thibodeau made to the Bulls organization. I have always respected his love of the game and wish him well in the future.”

Following 21 years in the NBA as an assistant coach (he was an advance scout in 1991-92), Chicago named Thibodeau the team’s head coach on June 23, 2010. During his five seasons at the helm of the Bulls, Thibodeau’s teams compiled an overall record of 255-139 (.647). The Bulls advanced to the playoffs five times during Thibodeau’s tenure, where he posted a postseason record of 23-28 (.451).

"When Tom was hired in 2010, he was right for our team and system at that time, and over the last five years we have had some success with Tom as our head coach,” said Chicago Bulls General Manager Gar Forman. “But as we looked ahead and evaluated how we as a team and an organization could continue to grow and improve, we believed a change in approach was needed."

This is awful man, sounding like a scorned ex. 2010 Dan Gilbert is smiling at this press release. 

 

[Vincent Van Goat]

"Some success" 

 

[SneakerProSr.]

"Some success" 

Right.

Dude was at helm for the most successful non-Jordan run in franchise history.

 

[Hahahaha]

I don't want Carroll or Milsap, they're not gonna be worth the money they get.

Thibbs as an assistant? NT must be trolling, he'll have no problem finding a team to coach. Phil needs to fire his boy and bring Thibbs back to NY.

"These internal discussions must not be considered an invasion of turf, and must remain private"...

Except for this press release now sit back and read as we lay into Thibs and blame him for everything and make this firing extremely personal.
