Vinny Del Negro needs to be fired now! Every day more and more reasons come out why he needs to be fired. There are many more reasons besides the fact that Vinny Del Negro is hurting the growth of this team . Vinny Del Negro is a first time coach at any level, and as we have found out over the past year and a half, he can’t coach. When Paxson hired him, it wasn’t because of him being a good coach or that he necessary even had the making of being a good coach. Paxson never directly said it, but if you listened to his reasons on why he hired Vinny and what he implied, it was because he thought Vinny Del Negro would be a good cheerleader. He thought Vinny would be good at brining everyone together and relate to the players well. He liked Vinny ideas to be a defense first minded team and his ideas for his coaching style. After coaching for a year in a half, the Bulls and Vinny have learned that his ideas are not possible, or at least not possible for Vinny to put into action.
The Bulls need to bring in a big star during the 2010 off season. No big star will want to come to Chicago and play for Vinny Del Negro. The Bulls need to bring in an experienced coach that players want to play for and that knows what he is doing to take us to the next level. Vinny Del Negro is not that person.
Over the past few weeks controversy has started to spread if Vinny will be fired. Then it recently came out that he has been fired and that the Bulls are just waiting to fine him until they find someone better. It is hard to hire a good coach in the middle of the season though. With rumors being circulated daily about the Bulls plans for their next coach, it is hard for the team to concentrate and play for Vinny when everyone knows it is only a matter of time before he is fired.
So the Bulls need to fire Vinny Del Negro and pick anyone to be the replacement. It doesn’t really matter who they pick if it is Bernie Bickerstaff, Pete Myers, or Gar Forman. I don’t think Bernie Bickerstaff or Pete Myers are good coaches or should be the coach for the long term, but they would be fine for the rest of the year. The Bulls should name one of them, or another assistant coach the interim manager and that this person will only be the coach until the end of the season. Then at that time the Bulls will have a thorough search for the next Bulls coach. This way they can move forward from the disaster Vinny Del Negro era and move forward.

A Look at the Chicago Bulls 2009……….Gar Forman
Gar Forman came to the Chicago Bulls in 1998 along with former coach Tim Floyd. Forman came to the Bulls because of Tim Floyd. He was an assistant coach under Floyd at Iowa State and Floyd wanted Forman by his side. Paxson liked Forman and he outlasted Floyd and is now the General Manager. Forman has spent the last 11 years in the organization now. For the last few years from 2004 to 2009 he served as director of player personnel. He will be working with Paxson, but handling day to day functions.
Forman was the General Manager to start this past off-season. So the moves the Bulls had made were officially done under his watch. This past draft was his first big moves for the Bulls in drafting James Johnson and Taj Gibson. We will see how his first two draft picks will play out. Forman has been in the Bulls organization for 11 years so he knew Jannero Pargo who he has brought back for his second stint with the Bulls. I am not a fan of Lindsey Hunter who he re-signed. It is early so we will see how Forman does as General Manager of the Chicago Bulls. He will be working closely with John Paxson who is his boss as VP of Basketball Operations. Thus, Paxson would probably have to sign off on any big moves.
