Dramatic change, something the Bulls have been allergic to for years.
It’s why John Paxson and Gar Forman leeched onto their executive titles for decades despite rapidly dwindling job performances.
It’s why since those two canned Tom Thibodeau, their last two head coaching hires were lazily plucked from known circles instead of an actual search.
It’s probably why top free agents never end up in Chicago.
But with the hiring of Billy Donovan after the firing of former head coach Jim Boylen, the new Bulls executive team led by Arturas Karnisovas have looked to signal, finally: real, dramatic, meaningful change for the Bulls.
