Billy Donovan has a secret.
The Bulls coach would like to visit the moon.
“I really would,’’ he stressed.
Who knew?
One major problem.
“I have no interest in doing what it takes to become an astronaut,’’ Donovan admitted during Saturday’s Zoom call from Dallas.
Maybe it was the slap in the face of suffering through one of the more embarrassing losses he’s gone through in quite some time that had the coach offering up some deep thoughts. Maybe it was just life in lockdown thanks to the NBA’s strict coronavirus protocols. Or maybe, just maybe, Donovan was making a profound point to sum up the state of this 4-8 team and the steps it still has to take to move this franchise back to where it wants to be?
