Chicago Bulls Coach Ready To Step Up?

October 9, 2009

Before last season, Chicago coach Vinny Del Negro had never coached on any level. Many fans said it showed at times. The coach made several rookie mistakes, particularly late in the game, but that was expected from a first-year coach. But Vinny also did a lot of things right last season. He worked with the Bulls’ young players and got them to improve as the season went along. “He did a very good job getting Derrick Rose ready to play from the start of the season and also had a positive effect on Joakim Noah and Tyrus Thomas.” Bulls’ fans do not get a chance to see a coach work with players in practice, so there were many fans who had a negative opinion of Del Negro. Chicago fans blamed Vinny for the mistakes he made and did not have any other opinion. The one year experience seems to have made a big difference. The coach is more confident and isn’t as defensive. Vinny has been very organized and the Bull got a lot accomplished during training camp.If the Bulls can overcome their injuries over the next couple of weeks, they should be prepared for a fast start in the regular season.
