In a journalistic miracle (or maybe he’s just better at interviewing than me), The Athletic’s Darnell Mayberry elicited about 5 billion words from an exceedingly chatty Fred Hoiberg in a two-part interview.
Part one is basically Hoiberg’s evaluation of the season, his thoughts on player development, and how the Bulls have handled the losing. I gained a newfound sense of respect for Hoiberg after reading part two especially.
We kind of already knew about Hoiberg’s heart condition that ended his playing career, but this interview provided a much more detailed context about all of it.
