Nick Friedell: Bulls should fire entire front office, offer Bob Myers the job and a blank slate
On the Spiegel & Holmes Show, Audacy NBA insider Nick Friedell expressed his astonishment over the Bulls continuing to employ executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley. Friedell explained that the Bulls are viewed as a “joke” around the NBA, and he believes they need to clean house and offer the lead executive job to former Warriors executive Bob Myers. As a blueprint, he cited how the Cubs cleaned house and hired Theo Epstein as their lead executive in 2011.

Wait a minute? Without Michael Jordan, the Reinsdorf family has murdered two franchises in Chicago. Absolutely murdered.
You remember when that narcissistic stupid bastard Jerry Krause said that players don’t win championships, organizations do? He’s been getting proved wrong ever since Jordan left.
Chicago deserves another basketball franchise
Shoutout to the bulls organization knowing the idiotic fan base will still support the franchise. It’s all entertainment. Enjoy the circus!
PAXSON NEEDS TO BE IN THE REINSDORFS EARS ASAP!!!
FORCE THE SALE FROM THE REINSDORFS AND MAKE SURE THE NEW OWNERS ARE NOT 🧃
Chicago deserves better and little Jerry should be fired too if he doesn’t get rid of Marc and Ak before the draft.
Holmes and 670 can’t say the Bulls are ass, so they have on Nick to say it for them
Wouldn’t it be so Chicago Bulls if they fire AK and hire Nico Harrison?! Hahahaha
I hope the good people in Chicago can swim as I pray every day for the Shitty of Chicago to fall into Lake Michigan.
The Bulls ownership care more about 90's Bulls nostalgia than winning basketball games. Those loyal fans deserve better than that garbage product.
Da Chicago bulls are a joke
If the bulls got lucky and git the 1st pick who in the world would want AK THE MORON making that pick? Nobody!! AK is the single worst executive in pro sports history
The ownership don’t care and they are cheap asf , they lead the league for so long in season tickets that’s what they consider winning and people spend there hard earned money to go to the games and we barely have a winning team smh we deserve better
Bob Myers seem too good for this organization would he even consider thjs team they probably wont pay up like the Bears did
Bring back John paxson
Just Bring back paxson
Anybody but the guy who tried to get Kyrie cancelled!
Friedell is fucking aweful!
Plz get someone else to talk to
Bulls are worse than a joke… they are irrelevant and IGNORED!
It’s detrimental to the team that Pat is paid 90 million and averaging 5 points per game 🐸🥃
Got to know when to hold em and when to fold em
Bulls are about to get sued over a player's religious beliefs.
Billy Donovan is responsible also……this idiot still plays Pbum Williams nightly …..why? Because he is overrated. He let young players languish on the bench without trying to develop them and instead played worn out bums like Vucbum who played no d and pouted.
Nick Friedell pops up like a zit to annoy the hell out of Chicago every few weeks. And he ain't wrong about the bulls.thays what annoys me
We vote with our time and money. Quit packing that arena every night!
Trading Ayo was the final straw for me. Bulls are and have been boycotted until GM/management is fired. Ayo just got a triple double the other day. This is beyond pathetic from AKME only b/c they didn't want to pay up for Ayo to stick around
Bulls killed this guys career …. I hope my spurs give him a job ….. He’s a very good player with a ton of upside.
Jerry was too loyal and too slow to pull the plug on GarPax and now Michael is too loyal and too slow to pull the plug on Karnisovas and Eversley. Meet the new boss, same as the old boss.
Bring back Ayo
Clean house
Not a big NBA guy but why do we think Billy Donvan is good? He has had one season over 500 in 5 years as the head coach and has never made it past the first round since his first year with the Thunder
Anything Reinsdorf is horrible. The White Sox at least are getting new ownership in 3 years. Reinsdorf needs to sell the Bulls too asap!
Can Chicago sports casters please stop talking to Nick Fridell please
Come On let Arturas build this team back to the play-in game. He can do it.
The organization has been a joke for the longest time. Going back to the Derrick Rose era, free agency was loaded and the best player they could come up with was Carlos Boozer???
You get a guy like Lamelo, often injured, and then extend him?
Oh yeah, and you're on the edge of winning ring #6 and decide to dismantle the entire thing at the end of the season, no matter the outcome. Nice job punting away what could have been 2 more rings.
Jerry needs to sell the team……..
The NBA should force old Reinsdorf to sell the team
While Bob Myers did hire Steve Kerr for the Warriors he didn't draft Steph Curry, Klay Thompson or Draymond Green. Reminds me Stan Bowman in that regard, and Blackhawks went downhill after Scotty Bowman left the Blackhawks as special adviser, so who knows who was pulling the strings really.
replace trees with plastic trees
And yet the fans still fill the united center.
I took pride in being a CHICAGO sports fan, and on any given day I could name you at least 15 players on each Chicago pro team; Blackhawks, Bulls, Cubs, White Sox, Bears. Today? I couldn't name 5, FIVE! Bulls, Blackhawks or White Sox. It's not that I fell out of love with sports, but it's one thing to lose, but it's a whole other thing to not even try. The level of incompetence in the front offices of the Bulls, Blackhawks and White Sox is laughable. Since Rocky Wirtz passed, the Hawks have been a clownshow. Since Michael Jordan left the Bulls, they haven't been taken seriously, and that includes the Derrick Rose era. Jerry Reinsdorf pulled the ultimate self sabotage when he hired that relic Tony LaRussa when his GM wanted to hire A.J. Hinch. Wonder how many players would still be around if Rick Hahn was allowed to do his job? Right now the Cubs and the Bears are the saving grace for Chicago sports wise.
They stink but I still love my Bull's
Until attendance dips/the team loses significant money they won't change anytime soon the Bulls make $$$ losing with attendance in the top 10 in the league
He's going to Carolina
call me crazy but unless they make MASSIVE changes for the FO this offseason, we're gonna see an all time low in attendance and merchandise sales. unless somehow the bulls become an incredibly good, playoff-run type team things are gonna change
Not just him. AK and Billy need to go.
