Bulls’ new front office playing long game on coaching change - Chicago Sun-Times
Now that the Advocate Center is reopened for work and members of the front office are expected in and out of town in the next few weeks, Karnisovas will have the opportunity to show the Reinsdorfs he assessed Boylen in person.
After the NBA board of governors voted to move forward with a 22-team restart and player representatives approved it Friday, the Bulls’ season officially has come to an end. But the business of basketball has to continue.
Sources have told the Sun-Times that 76ers assistant Ime Udoka is the front-runner to become the Bulls’ new coach, with Raptors assistant — and former Bulls assistant — Adrian Griffin also in the picture.
Karnisovas and Eversley are familiar with both men, and each is more than qualified for the position. It’s a win-win, but it’s also a process.
There’s no one who secretly has been waiting in the wings for a year or two. There are no underhanded side deals being made.
For once, the Bulls are doing things the right way.
