I was really surprised by this move...way to early and on Christmas eve....thats just a low blow.
They fired Bill Cartwright on Thanksgiving a few years ago and Tim Floyd resigned before him on Christmas Eve... It's really not uncommon to see coaching changes around the holidays.

Half the problem is the players. Hinrich is playing crap, and I dont think I have seen a more over-rated player than Nocioni. I have watched around 5 Bulls game this year in Australia, and whenever I see him, he is a huge ball-hog, takes poor shots and gets literally NONE in.

The players quit on Skiles... Keeping him around would have been throwing the season away.
You can't tell me the Bulls are better off this season with Boylan then they werw tih skiles. Skiles at least could've turned it around (possibly.)

I guess that's why we're 2-0 under Boylan and Ben Wallace's injuries magically dissappeared.

The players quit on Skiles... I don't see why you think Skiles could have turned it around, the players weren't listening to him. It would have been impossible for him to turn things around unless the entire roster was traded away.

Yea, Boylan has done well, bringing in Duhon to start and putting Gordon on the bench where he belongs. But they seem to be playing better already.
