Speaking of, I have a very probably-not-true word from someone I used to work with at the UC. Since the build of the practice arena there's a lot more passerby convos you catch working there from higher ups. (I used to hear it at US Cellular so I know there's some truth possibility to it)
Apparently, he hears that it's a Gar solo job. Paxon is on the "you finish it then" stance and isn't helping Gar much regarding coaching changes. Jerry plain doesn't care. Like, literally does not care. At all. Zero.
Hoiberg is mentally committed. This is THE job he wants. The only killer is he's scared to fukk up since Thibs did so well here. MIN is the only other serious thought. He thinks it might be better to grow his career with a younger team. Less backlash. Gar is buttering him up in the meantime stressing the front office is going to be there for him to pad everything out for him when shyt goes wrong.
And this goes into the Bulls filling out the vacancies. Gar feels that if Hoiberg bails last minute he has enough in changes to put more FO pressure on Thibs. It's pretty much a dikk waving contest. Thibs and Gar aren't willing to budge to work together. Unfortunately, you know the shyt travels downstream.
Whether this is true or not, fukk you Kirk Hinrich.
