I don't give a fukk if they're black. Just get us to the playoffs.
Give me a GM that can put together a good team, but it's a problem when experienced black execs aren't even getting a chance to interview. Especially when we're interviewing guys that were fired for racist remarks (Ferry), guys that were disciplined for racist jokes (Wilcox) and a guy that had a burner account shytting on his own players (Colangelo).

I feel we dont have a generational talent to build around so the Denver building model is better for us at this moment to get some winning here rather sooner than later.

Although if he wants to once again tear it all down and build up again I'm for it. I was always only against it because garpax would be behind it. They shouldn't have been given another shot at building anything.

Breaking down the candidates for Bulls' lead executive

Simply put, he’s one of the most respected veteran executives in the league. With the Bulls formally requesting to interview him for their lead executive spot, this is now the fourth time in five years Karnisovas has drawn significant interest for a front office spot. In 2016, he advanced to the later stages of the interview process for the Brooklyn Nets GM job, in 2017 he interviewed for the same position with the Milwaukee Bucks and in 2018 he reportedlyturned down an interview for the Philadelphia 76ers’ gig. Seemingly in response to the Bucks’ pursuit, Karnisovas was promoted to GM of the Nuggets in 2017 to continue serving as right-hand man to Tim Connelly, who had just been elevated to president of basketball operations.

Connelly and Karnisovas both made their starts as international scouts (Karnisovas with the Houston Rockets in 2008), and built from scratch one of the highest-touted international scouting departments in the NBA in Denver. Karnisovas was assistant GM when the franchise snagged Nikola Jokic with the No. 41 pick in the 2014 draft, but Bulls fans will remember their draft-day trade for the rights to Jusuf Nurkic (No. 16) and Gary Harris (No. 19; all for Doug McDermott) that same night. Karnisovas is also at least partially credited for the Jamal Murray and Michael Porter Jr. finds, and snagged solid backup point guard Monte Morris with the No. 51 pick in the 2017 draft.

His track record as an evaluator, both at home and abroad, makes him an incredibly attractive candidate, especially considering the Bulls’ stated desire to revamp their scouting department. Before the NBA suspended its season, the Nuggets were on pace for their second straight 50-win season in a stacked Western Conference and are well-positioned for the future with Jokic and Murray inked long-term.
