Anonymous Bulls Player: 'Growing Concern' Management Isn't Listening to Players

Rob GoldbergJul 30, 2020

The Chicago Bulls revamped their front office, but there are still issues within the organization, according to Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times

"One Bull told the Chicago Sun-Times on Wednesday that the growing concern is that no player is really being listened to by the organization," Cowley wrote.

It's a diversion from the "players-first" mindset general manager Marc Eversley pushed when he was introduced in May.

Many of the problems reportedly stem from the presence of head coach Jim Boylen, who remains in charge despite player complaints to new executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas Karnisovas.

Several players have gone public with complaints about the coach, including Denzel Valentine and Daniel Gafford.

"I don't like him a lot, but he OK," Gafford said of Boylen on a Twitch stream, via Jeremy Layton of the New York Post. "Got some things he can work on, got some things he can get better at as a person and as a coach."

There hasn't been much success on the court either as Boylen is just 39-84 in parts of two seasons with Chicago.

Even with the problems, the Bulls appear ready to let the coach get another chance for 2020-21.

"There are certainly more and more signs that it's not going to be that surprising if Jim Boylen is brought back or at least given an extended dress rehearsal," K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports said (h/t Ashish Mathur of Clutch Points). "Zach LaVine is tired of losing and tired of a lot of things."

The situation has created plenty of problems within the locker room.
