QUOTE Speaking of Luol Deng, Bulls Chairman Jerry Reinsdorf has removed John Paxson from the discussion with Luol Deng and his agent, Jason Levien. Reinsdorf was already unhappy with the way the coaching search went, specifically with Paxson's inability to get Doug Collins wrapped up, and now he's unhappy that the Deng discussion is taking so long. It's not a good sign for Paxson that he's now being excluded from player discussions. I think we've already seen the initial report from Stein which indicated that Reinsdorf had taken over the Deng negotiations. However, I don't believe we had heard anything about him taking over the negotiations having anything to do with him being frustrated with Paxson. Reinsdorf has been heavily involved in Bulls negotiations over the years. Regardless, I can't blame JR for being frustrated with the way Paxson handled the coaching search. It was a downright disaster although I am relatively pleased with who the team ended up getting (especially the assistants). |

My god, I'd rather lose JR. I hope everything works out in the coming seasons or being a Bulls fan is going to be even more depressing.
