Chicago Bulls get Del Negro and Reinsdorf is the Cheapest Owner

Memo to Reinsdorf as a Bulls fan: THIS IS NOT TOLEDO, SIOUX FALLS, OR GRAND RAPIDS - THIS IS CHICAGO A MAJOR MARKET THAT DESERVES EXPERIENCED COACHING AND PROFESSIONAL PLAYERS. WE KNOW YOU HIRED DEL NEGRO BECAUSE YOU FEEL ANYONE SHOULD BE ABLE TO WIN WITH THE TEAM WE HAVE (INCLUDING DERRICK ROSE).

Kobe Must Shoot 15 Free Throws for the Lakers to Win

Kobe has to shoot 15 Free throws in order for the Lakers to win. In the two games combined Kobe has shot 13 free throws the same number as Leon Powe! Kobe is working too hard on the perimeter to put up 25-30 points. Head fakes, pump fakes, back doors and playing in LA should help Kobe get to the line at least 15 times tonight.

Overrated Alert: Danilo Gallinari

Every year NBA GM's covet the next great European talent who they picture dominating in the league. This year Danilo Gallinari is the next great Euro talent ready to make his mark in the NBA. I have watched tapes of Danilo's game and have come to the conclusion that he might be the most overrated player in this years draft.

Where Michael Beasley won't Play

If I am Michael Beasley I would have a chip on my shoulder from all the mock-ery drafts being published. The lastest comes from HoopsWorld (this is Mock Draft version 3.0 for them) where they place Jerryd Bayless at the 2nd pick in the NBA draft.

Why John Paxson Should be Fired!

I have always supported the moves made by my home team (Chicago Bulls) but the latest news that Doug Collins has backed out of the coaching job really makes mad. Chicago front office is a joke and Paxson is the joker of them all. Why even leak stories that you are talking to Collins if Reinsdorf has the final say?

Nothing like watching your idol (Michael Jordan) shattering a backboard in Italy.

Joey Dorsey says Bulls will pick Beasley

It appears that Joey Dorsey knows who the Chicago Bulls are going to draft. At the pre-draft camp Dorsey announced that the Bulls will select Beasley. He doesn't cite any logic or information only stating that Chicago has alot of pressure on them because Rose is from Chicago.

Chicago Bulls will name Doug Collins as Head Coach

I have mix feelings with Collins because I have seen him become really emotional while coaching the Bulls. The last thing this team needs is crying and whining from a coach. However, Collins is one of the smartest minds in basketball and should lead the team back to glory. Expect the former Bulls coach to sign a 3 year deal for 6 million.

Why Avery Johnson is Still Available

With the number 1 draft pick, Avery Johnson now has all the reason to sign with the Bulls and tutor Derrick Rose. If he was hesitant at first the number 1 draft pick should make it a bit easier to swallow working for Reinsdorf.
