Why put it off? Just fire his *** today.

Maybe Hornacek will get his chance now? Although, he might have burnt bridges with the Bulls after they hired Del Negro.

Thats what i was thinking.

Hoiberg to the Bulls?

This is no surprise. They said in December they were going to fire him after the season.

Good riddance! VDN was in over his head, he lost a lot of people when they blew that game against Sacramento where they lwere up around 30 at one point and somehow managed to lose it.

They'll hire someone that can hopefully attract a big name free agent. Doug Collins is the hot name right now, I'd be OK with that as I am a little leery about Byron Scott and Avery Johnson.

I hope they get Avery Johnson. He's a great leader and coach.

He has been fired, breaking news on espn.
