Film & TV Scott Skiles ends contract negoitations with Chicago Bulls

[Dogmatic187]

Scott Skiles has ended contract negoitations with the Chicago Bulls after a month of talking. Skiles took the Bulls to the playoffs this season for the first time in 7 years.

Wow, the Chicago Bulls are genuises. You haven't won in 7 years, and when you get close (first round of the playoffs) you don't give the coach who did just that what he deserves.

i wouldn't call that close, though it's a drastic improvement and they're headed in the right direction

or at least they were..

One day after he said he was through negotiating with the Chicago Bulls and was shocked by the process, Skiles agreed Tuesday to a four-year contract extension to keep coaching the young team he led to a remarkable comeback this season. It was a heart-to-heart phone conversation with owner Jerry Reinsdorf - a call that Skiles initiated - that got the deal done. So instead of leaving town, Skiles is staying put.

You'll never see him in Chicago again, unless maybe Jordan gets a position in the front office.

Yeah that's true. I wasn't actually serious. It was just a joke
