I was listening to Dan Patrick early this morning when the story broke that Doug Collins is coming back to coach the Chicago Bulls. Doug, i just want to say how happy I am that I and fellow SportsToilet fans don't have to hear your analysis on TNT anymore. If only we could get Jeff Van Gundy to make it to every game in the playoffs, this world could be a much better place.
Lets break down Doug's decision on why he decided to come back. First, that's just it, FIRST pick in the NBA Draft this summer. As soon as the Bulls stole the #1 pick from other NBA teams in need of the first pick like the Seatlle Supersonics or the Charlotte Bobcats. Doug's people put a call into Chi-town, knowing they needed a big name. Shit, I would put a call in to promote Shay-Shay to be the next coach. It's not like Doug is stepping into a franchise like the Clippers or the Bobcats. Chicago is a loaded team that has not learned how to play in the east. Once Doug and their #1 pick learn how to play semi-normally, they will be a top 3 team in the shitty eastern conference and Doug will ride out on top.
Mr.Collin's wants redemption very badly. After his firing in 1989, the Chicago Bulls started their run in becoming one of the most storied franchises of all time. Under the guidance of the brilliant Phil Jackson, the Bulls were the crowned ,"team of the 90's." Shay Shay wonders if during this time Doug Collin's sat at home and thought ",this should have been me." Now he is making one more run at coaching while Phil Jackson goes for another ring with the purple and gold. Doug Collins was the one who bred Jordan, drafted Pippen and did all the dirty work in his early days with the 80's Bulls. Mr. Collin's is out to prove just one more time why he loves his Chicago Bulls, and maybe why he should have never been fired in the first place. Think of his other option, coaching the Phoenix Suns, I think not.
