Bulls head coach search rumors per Bulls CEO Marc Reinsdorf
“If I interview someone and they’re not sold on Billy, they’re not sold on a Hall of Fame coach; they’re not sold on a person who’s won championships in college, who’s gone deep in the playoffs with Oklahoma City. If Billy wants to be our coach and someone’s not interested in that, then they’re probably not the right candidate for us.”

Who will be the next Chicago Bulls head coach?
We need Steve Kerr he was a bull back in the 90s
Billy wasn’t the problem. He was a good coach. But I agree this is good for everyone considering the timeline that we are on.
UConn hc Dan Hurley I know it's a stretch so let's see!
Beautiful. Now Patrick Williams has to go next.
Please can we hire Taylor Jenkins, he was solid with Memphis
Its same BS he pulled with OKC
Only option is sam Cassell period
Billy wasn’t THE problem but he was part of it! Question didn’t he confer with the front office. Wasn’t he apart of the conversations. Like mediocre for a franchise with 6 championships is kinda mid! Which is why I want the franchise sold! Get those old a-hole billionaire out of Chicago!!!!
U guys are blind not good coach. The team would come out not ready to play. After halftime Billy would call a timeout a minute into the second half. That’s unexceptable. He doesn’t develop players and nor gives player minutes that has shown they should get more. I could go on and on
Embarrassing that the Bulls publicly gave him as much power as they did by claiming to want to hire a front office around keeping him and then doubly embarrassing for him to turn them down. Why would you make a statement like that at all if you weren't certain he wanted to stay? And then to have him point out the bad process in a very cordial refusal is another layer of embarrassing! Even if this is all for the best, the way we got here is just astoundingly incompetent.
Billy wasnt our main problem, but he was responsible for our poor rotations, in game adjustments and evaluating and developing talent, he was an average coach and it irritates me that people think he was absolved of all blame

Hell no
Bring Steve Kerr back to Chicago

Good because he sucks as a coach.
Johnnie Bryant/Sam Cassell
for me its no hrs a great head coach
SEE RED
Now u can stop wining 😂

Billy wasn’t a good coach. Never coached up a guy to be better, couldn’t win. Never played young guys… he was holding us back too
Sam Cassell, Taylor Jenkins and Steve Kerr are my choices.
Thibs and Kerr will not come here. Can’t look forward if you constantly look into the past. Delusion is a hell of a drug.
Mitchell was a beast in Utah
The last team that Billy walked away from because he did not want to be a part of a rebuild, they (OKC) did ok for themselves. So hopefully history repeats itself.
Billy was terrible. i don't care what no one says. He developed no one, and i hated how he barely ever played rookies. This was the best move for the Bulls, including dropping AK and his crew
Thank GOD!!!!
Play in two years ago when Drummond was dominating in the final 1/4 but then decided to take him off, along with Ayo and then what happened we sunk and lost, there are so many examples of that as he always had his favourites and never gave anyone a chance. Yet you say it wasn’t a coaching problem, he’s one of the worst coach’s in the league, doesn’t develop doesn’t keep players on who are performing and quite frankly has done nothing in the NBA, let him go back to college where he belongs.
Good. Never liked him anyway. He is a bad HC.
Nah Billy trash. On god I was thrilled reading this videos title

This was an obvious move. Shame on the organization.
Call up Derrick rose
1:44 HE SAID 6-7
