 What's the word y'all we are back with another video did not expect to have to make a video today But breaking news happening as the one of the biggest bulls fans on the platform It's kind of my job to come here and talk about it If you do not know what's going on the bulls have finally decided on their head coach and it will be Billy Donovan I was just chilling doing laundry and I get the notification from Wolger shams Boom and then I proceeded to get a million notifications after that a klt for a queue And what do you think what do you think this and that trying to let me know about the hiring and what I Want to say to y'all is thank you for having me be the first thing you think about when the bulls do anything But also I have no these on shams and woes just like everybody else and NBA Twitter So you don't have to notify me what's up to go down because I'm on top of it, too So again, I didn't expect to record a video today, but here we are It's my team and it's it's an obligation of mine to talk about it So initially when I get the notification from I forget which one it was at the end of the day It's NBA news. What is this Sam the wold? It doesn't matter I get the notification and immediately I'm like, yes, we did it You know because I'm still thinking about it this way any news for the Chicago Bulls from this point on It's gonna be good news because we already got rid of the head of a coach We already got rid of the bad front office So everything they they're gonna do from here on out can't can be looked at from a fans aspect It'd be like yes, at least that's like the initial response But since it has been 30 40 minutes and I've come down to earth a little bit and I can have a realistic expectation or a realistic Opinion on the Billy Donovan Signing okay It's cool, you know, it's cool It's the first time since I think the year was 2003 that the Chicago Bulls have hired a head coach That wasn't a first-time head coach think about the Bulls coaches throughout history since 2003 and that's could be pretty cool As a fan to get a first-time head coach I mean I want it to see West on sale junior be the coach like that was my number one guy Then it was Kenny Atkinson and then it was Billy Donovan. We end up being getting the third best guy in my eyes But it is what it is, right? So any time there's like a first-time coach is kind of like this mysterious little thing about it because you think about like Tom Thibodeau right he was a first-time head coach when he came to the Bulls and we were like man This is the guy that you up the great defense for the Boston Celtics. He must be a good head coach You know what? We weren't wrong. He wasn't the perfect coach obviously, but he won a coach at a year He helped the Bulls get to the best version of themselves that they've been at since Michael Jordan So he wasn't he wasn't bad and then we ended up having the bad side of that of like the Jim Boiler, right? We had just fired Fred Hoiberg who was also a first-time head coach in the NBA forgot that and then we got Jim Boyle Like this man has been a notorious Assisted coach for 20 30 years. He's got a couple championship rings as an assistant So he must be pretty solid, right and then we got like the worst coach in the history of basketball So Arne show us Carney show of us decide to do something a little bit different Let's go after somebody that we know has experience and pretty decent I've been seeing a lot of Bulls fans on Twitter bring up like Billy Donovan's overall record as he head coach And I think that's that's not a very good way to determine if a coach is good or not I mean you think about Billy Donovan came into the league at 2015 as he head coach at OKC Thunder He had KD and Russell Westbrook Now I could have been the coach of that team and had a very good record You know I'm saying and then he's has notoriously other than this year the last year would um whoa whoa even then He is notoriously just have very very good players in the roster Kevin Arant a top whatever player of all time Russell Westbrook a top whatever player of all time and the last year at Chris Paul though Chris Paul is old He's still a top blank blank player of all time. So he's always hit like a legendary player on his team So that's why I'm saying that like if we're going by overall record of the team That's not the best way to determine what's a good coach and what's a bad coach because we also seen coaches like Coats a bad team as far as like record wise they go somewhere else and have a good record So you know I'm saying when it comes to the overall record of a team It's a lot of things are just like the X's and O's you also need the players So that's not the way I'm gonna determine my opinion on the Billy Donovan hire I'm gonna think about it a little differently Again at the end of the day Who's my third best coach my third favorite coach out of the people we were hiring and and I'm not mad about the signing I'm not on cloud nine either I think it's a good signing and but only time would tell right because we've seen a dual-faced thing of Billy Donovan Like I remember when it was Russell Westbrook in Kevin to run very early before Katie went to the Warriors There were situations were like late game. I have tweets out there where I'm like Billy Donovan What are you doing? How the heck are we down by two and I'm saying we isn't as if I'm a fan Okay, see in this situation How are we down by two and that's the play that is drawn up or are we drawing up any play whatsoever, you know and Then we had this season Where Chris Paul deserves a lot and I mean a lot of the love a lot of the love from okC and being a team that was Had like a point two percent chance making a playoffs and not only made the playoffs got to a game seven And you know almost got to the second round Chris Paul deserves a lot of credit in that But Billy Donovan deserves some credit in that as well You know I'm saying and one thing we can we can always say about Billy Donovan's teams is that they are very good defensively No matter the personnel we talking about when Katie was there after Katie left after the Russell West betrayed Okay, see it's always been I mean, I don't know the official numbers This is all rambling off the top But I can say with pretty confident pretty confidently They've always been a top 10 defense in the league as long as he was the head coach that is pretty good They're also happy when he was in Florida. That's pretty good They've always he is a great defensive coach the no matter the personnel and another thing I've noticed is that he gets the best out of his gar play and right now the bulls have some pretty bright players at Gar we have Zach Levine whoever's 25 points per game and though the general public may not love Zach Levine We talking about like the analytic nerds Zach Levine is a very quality NBA player He's gonna be elevated with Billy Donovan the man average 25 points per game and in Jim Boyland system I don't I can't imagine how he performs With Billy Donovan and I'm not saying that he's about to have a 35 point per game season He may still he may average less points, but it will be better for the overall team We have a guy like Kobe white like we have guards on our team that Billy Donovan is going to exceed and that's what I'm super excited about You know, that's what I'm super excited about. Oh, Carney show. This is a smart man And right now he is not giving me a reason to doubt his decisions. So at this point again, I'm just cool with it I really like the idea of having Kenny Ackerson Um, I wish I could have been a fly on the wall doing all these interviews and and like talk to Carney show us to figure out Why Billy Donovan at the end of the day was a guy they decided to go with because Kenny Ackerson It comes when it comes to player development that Kenny Ackerson is the best guy available And then what's on sales great defensive strategy is one of the reasons the Denver Nuggets are in the place They are now so especially when you think about Carney show this just came over from the Nuggets So it felt like West on sale was like we were gonna have West until juniors our coach He's he's been working together for the couple years. So Billy Donovan overall. I Don't hate it. I'm super excited that like the timing of this is pretty cool If you don't follow the Bulls, they have their own little bubble going on like a Bulls training camp So players have been home in California or wherever they were from and flown back to flew back to Chicago For like training camp. So they're being quarantined right now And I don't think it's any coincidence that we hire a hair coach right before Things go down because I mean if we're gonna have a training camp, how the hell you gonna have a training camp without somebody Somebody coaching somebody that's in in the lead of it And now we're gonna have Billy Donovan do that, which is which is cool I think things are looking up as an overall Bulls fan at this moment You know I'm saying all of us should come together and then somebody's gonna point to me like Three years down the line to be like Kenny, you said it was cool if Billy Donovan turns out to be terrible But I'm just happy that we have a coach with some experience and a decent enough track record To the point where like we don't have the worst coach in the league anymore They could have hired me and would have been a significant upgrade to what we had that's that's not really gotta say I'm excited to see what the draft looks like because I'm guessing Billy Donovan's gonna have his own little say about the Draft and and the idea of the the perfect line-ups that they can have with them I don't think Billy Donovan's ever coached a guy like Larry marketing as far as like just have Gala Nari was their lorry market. I'm see gala. I was significantly better. I don't comment saying oh my god, Kenny Just said that but I mean like a stretch for type player with the ability to put it on the floor too Gala Nari was that so we can get lorry market in those Gala Nari looks a that's a w because Larry's gonna knock him down, too Um I'm cool with this and if I had to rate this out of 10 6.5 out of 10 signing for now with the Ability to drop dramatically or get up to a 10 depending on how it is. Oh, oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah, so People want to talk about the playoff thing. I'm glad I meant I thought about that before I end of this video Ability Donovan has just not been a very good coach in the playoffs and though Playoffs should be our goal right now as Bulls fans our goal at this moment with the current Regime and the current players is not championship. You know I'm saying so Billy Donovan has been a coach that is good enough to get you To the playoffs. He just may not have executed in the playoffs right now We need that coach to get us into the playoffs. This could be a Mark Jackson Steve Kerr situation We're like three years down the line We may fire or contract maybe up with Billy Donovan that we bring in the next guy to get us from a good Playoff team to a championship level team, but again, I'm thinking way too ahead So I just I just don't think that we we start thinking about him blowing a 3-1 lead in the conference finals to the Warriors That's just not super relevant because we're not thinking about winning a championship at this moment If we're talking about developing and getting to the point where we are a playoff team Billy Donovan does help that and at This moment, that's that's all I really care about You know I'm saying one step at a time Bulls fans one step at a time and who knows Billy Donovan still a relatively young NBA coach And this is he's going into his sixth season as an NBA coach That narrative could change That narrative can change Let's say we are four years down the line He's still a head coach and for some reason the Bulls aren't contentioned I don't know why we would be he might be able to do it four years down the line more experience I wonder what the assistant coaching is going to be like Are we allowing him to build it build his cabinet or are we just going to go get guys that we like? I don't really know what that's going to be like, but I'm interested to see end of the day again six out of ten six and a half out of ten of a signing Just people I would have liked a little bit better and the end of day can't be mad
