Trade Larry Brown for Scott Skiles?

by saalikjazz on Nov 4, 2006 1:08 AM CST

Okay Scott Skiles is a great x and o guy but man is he pissing me off. How many of you think Scott Skiles should be fired! I know it's one game. I'm not quite sure who I would want to see coach the Bulls other than Skiles. Maybe Larry Brown. It will probably never happen. It's just sometimes I don't under stand what Skiles is thinking?

NOOOOOOO

Do you want to see PJ Brown, Malik Allen, and Adrian Griffin playing 30 minutes a game? That's what Larry Brown will do.

My View on Skiles...

Skiles reminds me of the coaches in those feel good movies. U know at first everyone thinks hes evil cuz he sits out the best player, and only points out the negetive things a team did even if they win. But at the end of the movie we realize hes a gentle soul with a genius mindset and becomes one of the biggest reasons the team will win the championship at the end...And if tv is the true reflection of our lives (which we all know it is) then we have nothing to worry about.

And on a more serious note, did anyone see THE BODY's free throws? Maybe skiles has been working so hard with Big Ben that he forgot to draw up some plays that actually work (okay i suppose that wasnt as serious of a note as it should have been)

p.s. I really do think skiles is an awesome coach and am sure he'll definetly win coach of the year if the bulls win division championship.

im trying hard to become the next kirk hinrich, therefore im doing nothing more than being the next chris duhon.

I would

prefer to see a Harold and Maude romance for the ages, but that's because I'm an optimist.

I think you are over reacting a little bit...

...it's only the third game of the year. I suppose it's also Scott's fault that Gordon played like a turd. Is it also the coach's fault when your 48 million dollar point guard and team leader only takes 8 shots? The players have some acountability in all of this as well. The fact that you don't understand what Skiles is doing is also the reason why none of us are coaching an nba basketball team. His players enjoy playing for him and he normally makes sound coaching decisions. What else do you want from the guy?

I like Skiles for this team.

Agree that it was more a problem of the players executing last night. Skiles wasn't on the sidelines throwing away an inbound pass, and he has every right to expect the guys to make that pass. Also, the guys were in foul trouble again last night, and you know from everything he and they have said that NOT fouling has been an emphasis. I think changing coaches would be a huge step back for the team.

Larry Brown...ugh

All those years in Philly, where he incessantly whined to the media about A-I and how he wouldn't play the "right way," were enough to make me barf. And it wasn't just Philly. He's back-stabbed players in the media everywhere he's been. He may be a great coach, but the dude's a massive downer. I don't know whose worse, Larry Brown or George Karl.

Larry Brown coaching the Bulls? No thank you.
