While Doug Collins has the inside track to someday, somewhere, be named the Bulls next head coach, that hasn't stopped the Bulls from continuing to interview other candidates.
Chuck Person, the man who once punted a basketball into the rafters during a Pacers - Bulls game, just completed his second interview with Bulls GM John Paxson. As a player, Person was an avid shooter and borderline black hole (throw the ball to him, and it's not coming back). When a reporter asked him once about his teammates getting the ball to him, he declared, "I'm open as soon as a I step off the team bus." Thanks, Chuck. How would you like to coach an NBA franchise?
When the Bulls cast a coaching net so wide that it includes disparate personalities from Doug Collins to Chuck Person to (insert random assistant coach's name here), the perception is that the franchise is a rudderless ship. Not a good sign.
Paxson, I hear John Wooden is available.
