I had just gotten home today from picking up little inquisitive mind (he was sick at daycare) and one of my guys calls me to tell me that the Bulls have indeed found their new coach. In this case it's actually their old coach, Doug Collins. Now most of the fellow Chicagoans know that Doug went to Illinois State, played several years for the Sixers, and coached the Bulls during the beginning years of a young dynamo named Jordan. Collins was fired from that job because (in my mind) he couldn't get that team to the next level. So he comes in to a team with a roster loaded with a bunch of guards and forwards, no true point guard, no true center, and a team that underachieved last year. The team does have some talent and they have the #1 pick in the draft. This is definitely a good situation to walk in to. My question: Is Collins the best coach that the Bulls could have gotten?
What do you guys think?

Horrible choice! This is just another re-tread in NBA coaching, which has unfortunately become the common practice. If they were going to go back and get someone who was older and well-schooled in the NBA, they should have made a play for Hubie Brown. Xs and Os guru who got Memphis on the right track. Theses young kids need proper direction and education in the NBA and Hubie would give that to them.
