2011 Chicago Bulls Head Coach will be??? - Message Board Basketball Forum

I think we gotta go after Jeff Van Gundy for 2011. This teams needs to learn how to play defense if we're gonna do any damage down the road. Honestly, I'll take anyone as long as his name isn't Vinny.

Head Coach? I'm more worried about the rest of the staff. Who are the assistants?

If he doesn't, I just hope it's someone with some job experience this time. Avery Johnson, Byron Scott, and Van Gundy would be the ideal choices.

first and second choices are Byron Scott, followed by Van Gundy in a close third

Byron Scott

Jeff Van Gundy followed by Byron Scott.

Mark Jackson

lmao, what are you guys talking about, we're probably going to get spat in the face again and we'll get a no-name with no experience... again

I don't think it's a foregone conclusion that Vinny will be gone after the year. He got through that rough stretch when it was reported that he would be fired really well, and had this team on track for the 5th or 6th seed in the East.

You can't blame him for losing without his three best players. I think he's done pretty well given what he's working with.

i think we stay with vinnie. how many games have been lost cuz of him?

I don't think it's like that now. Having Rose and a much improved Joakim Noah in Chicago is a lot of incentive.

For me I think it should be between three guys. Either, Vdn should stay because he has done an admirable job considering. We get Van Gundy to lead this team. The last person I would offer is Patrick Ewing for the never head coach idea. He would be great with our big men. I hated him as a Knick but like what he has done for Howard in Orlando.

ljsbb27 · 03-15-2010, 04:28 PM

I'd have to say I wouldn't agree with signing up Mark Jackson for the job. I wouldn't mind bringing back VDN for one year to see what he can do with an improved roster, but if he were to stay we would need to significantly upgrade the assistant coaching staff to help him. But I have a feeling that VDN is on his way out. If that ends up happening my first choice would be Byron Scott and then Avery Johnson. Those are my top two. I don't really care for any of the other coaches with experience that have been mentioned. I don't see them fitting the system we want to run that appeals to DRose nor do I think they would matchup with our players. Does anybody think any college coaches would be good candidates? And have any been rumored to come coach the Bulls in recent years?

Jeff Van Gundy is my top choice. I also think Avery or Byron Scott can significantly help. I am against bringing ANOTHER rookie coach like Mark Jackson. They need a PROVEN coach, somebody whose been there.
