Is Vinny on his way out?
Monday, December 28th, 2009 | Chicago Bulls | No Comments
ESPN is reporting that Vinny Del Negro is on his way out and that the Chicago Bulls have already made the decision to fire him as soon as a replacement can be found. There have been discussions within the Bulls organization to have John Paxson, the executive vice president of basketball operations, take over as the coach, but he declined this idea. Also, according to ESPN’s sources the Bulls called Doug Collins, who was a candidate two years ago for the job before Del Negor was hired, but he was said to have turned them down.
There are plenty of available coaches in the NBA, Byron Scott was just fired by New Orleans and would fit much better then Del Negor. There is also, Avery Johnson, Jeff Van Gundy, Sam Mitchell, and Lawrence Franks. Scott, Johnson, and Mitchell have all been coaches of the year. It is rumored that Avery Johnson will go to New Orleans or New Jersey so Chicago may be out of luck with him.
