Gar (maybe Pax too) in trouble

Ouch.

The genesis of that relationship going south stemmed from former coach Fred Hoiberg, whom Collins immediately had questions about when vice president of basketball operations John Paxson named Collins to the key role in 2017.

Collins was underwhelmed by Hoiberg’s leadership skills, and was openly critical of Hoiberg throughout the Advocate Center in the wake of the Nikola Mirotic-Bobby Portis practice altercation.

While Paxson and the Bulls have all publicly insisted that Hoiberg’s hiring was a group decision, it was no secret that Forman was pushing for Hoiberg almost a year before Tom Thibodeau was fired. In Collins’ mind, the Hoiberg hiring was strike one
 
Doug Collins knows something about coaching inadequacies. Wasn't he fired by the Bulls for not being able to take the Michael Jordan teams from Point A to Point C (championships)? Very interesting that he is back in the middle of things. Wonder what is in it for him.
 
The Bulls really are a nice reflection of the city itself. Living in the past, falling behind the competition, but still defended by homers

....organizations win championships

Collins is more of an old school guy so probably likes a Thibs type coaching style more.
I wonder if it was Collins who first had Boylen act as a 'spy' of sorts? That org is so messed up. They don't know what they want either player or coaching wise. They need better people in place at the top, i.e. not Gar/Pax.
