Former Spurs assistant Jim Boylen named head coach of the Chicago Bulls

Yesterday, the Chicago Bulls made a major change to their coaching staff by firing Fred Hoiberg. The Bulls were off to a 5-19 record and had lost the last six in a row. Since taking the helm in 2015, the Bulls have been in a slow and steady decline winning 42, 41, and and 27 the last three seasons respectively.

The decline cannot be laid solely at the feet of the head coach as the team has been stripped away of its high-quality commodities and have been pushed into more of a rebuild. Having Jimmy Butler traded showed signs of a new direction two seasons ago.
