Chicago Bulls: Approaching a potential culture changeon April 9, 2020 at 2:00 pm

The Nuggets have become a really good contender in the NBA’s Western Conference under Karnisovas. He did a great job there which is why the Bulls went after him. According to Woj on Twitter, the Bulls offered him the job early in the evening and then he worked on the deal with them through the night to leave Denver and come to Chicago.

All of this could mean one major thing for Chicago. A big culture change is on the way. The Bulls put GarPax on the backburner to deal with other things while giving Karnisovas the keys to the basketball operations. He is a big name that has had success in another place where it should be much less easy to have success in. This team could go from the stink that it has been laying in for the past two years to some very good times ahead.

You would think that the first thing on his mind beyond hiring a general manager would be to get a new coach. Jim Boylen has been pretty awful in his short tenure with the team but it probably wasn’t short enough. This team needs a lot of great changes before it becomes a contender but this is a great step in the right direction.

If the culture truly does change, you never know how it changes everything. Everyone seems to want Anthony Davis to come home to Chicago with the Bulls and bring them back to relevancy. Well, you never know how things work out for him with the Los Angeles Lakers but anything is possible. There is no doubt that a move like that would definitely feed into this potential culture change.

The Bulls saw things get bad. When the NBA suspended their season they were 22-43. That is good for 11th place in the Eastern Conference and eight games behind the Orlando Magic for the final playoff position. The United Center was half empty on most nights and people were starting to get disinterested. This is a move that could lure some people back into rooting for this team. A winning Chicago Bulls team would be great for the city.
