Despite getting the Chicago Bulls to the playoffs in back-to-back seasons, it will not be enough to earn Vinny Del Negro a 3rd season in the Windy City.
Multiple source are reporting that the Bulls are scheduled to hold a 12pm press conference at the United Center on Tuesday afternoon to announce Del Negro’s firing, as Chicago is facing a very critical off-season with enough cap room to land a marquee free-agent such as Cleveland’s LeBron James, Miami’s Dwyane Wade & Toronto’s Chris Bosh among others.
After leading the Bulls to consecutive playoff appearences despite an 82-82 record in two seasons, Del Negro’s postseason record stands at just 4-8 with losses to the Celtics & Cavaliers.
