Hoiberg Watch 2015: Thursday, May 28 Thread

[Dandy]

@TravisHines21: This press conference given the widely reported Hoiberg connection is pretty hilarious.

If this drags out another week, I'm seriously going to need medication.

Take jsb's. She won't make it through another week.

"Probably wouldn't be sitting here if we won the championship." -Paxson

I wouldn't be surprised if they canned him anyway. That front office is a bunch of spoiled rich kids upset that somebody (thibs) had the audacity to talk back to them.

@TravisHines21: “A day, a week, a month, two months, we’re going to do our work and try to find the right fit for our players and for this teamâ€￾ - Forman

Well that dysfunctional bunch might take 2 months..

"Worst kept secret around is Fred Hoiberg is their guy. If Hoiberg doesn't come then they'll scramble." -Joe Cowley of Chicago Sun Times on ESPNews.

What are the Odds Paxson fights Hoiberg?

Paxson thinks he was the reason for Jordan's success in their playing days.. Guys a ****.

 

[runbikeswim]

Bulls had Michael Jordan and Phil Jackson their expectation for success is somewhat unachievable

Take jsb's. She won't make it through another week.

These meltdown threads have some classic stuff.. LMAO

I thought it was hilarious when Pax didn't want to disclose their private discussion with Thibs this morning but has had no problem leaking trash about him for months now.

 

[CyJack13]

The Bulls have won fewer conference final games this century than the Knicks.

And they basically forced them both out of town.

ESPNews anchor and Bruce Bowen with a Tim Floyd jab since he was at ISU and sucked at Chicago.

Bruce Bowen also thinks the Chicago players won't accept Hoiberg at first because they likely Thibs.

~"This roster was built around Thibs' defense so when Hoiberg walks in with an offensive mindset the players may have some questions for management." ...something close to that.

I imagine that much of it isn't suitable for the airwaves in the first place.

And the basically forced them both out of town.

"Players don't win championships. Franchises win championships."

 

[inCyteful]

So question: How high does the ledge need to be to have the desired effect?

 

[Dandy]

@TravisHines21: And Forman corrected himself from “around the leagueâ€￾ to “around the countryâ€￾ when discussing candidates. #TodayInTeaLeaves

The longer this goes on, the better chance Fred is not going to Chicago. I expect a Hoiberg presser early next week to announce he gone.

I appreciate all the people posting tweets so I don't ever have to deal with the stupidity of twitter.
