The upside here is that he can't do any worse than Scott Skiles. Unfortunately, that's about the only upside. But if the rumored Dwayne Wade and Miami's #2 for Chicago's #1 trade goes through, there's no reason Del Negro shouldn't take this team to the playoffs, especially in the Leastern Conference.
I'm baffled that Vinny Del Negro, Michael Curry, and Terry Porter (!) are getting high-profile head coaching gigs while Avery Johnson is sitting at home waiting for his phone to ring. The man won 67 games, for crying out loud!

Yea, that trade's not as much happening as something to talk about during a down period. Either way, the team should've been a playoff team this year.
It's tough to figure out what kind of coach you're getting when you get info like this:
Little is known about his basketball philosophy since he never has coached before.
I think I can safely say he's inexperienced, but I don't know what else. He could be defensive-minded, he could be offensive minded, he could favor playing Noah at PG - who's to say. If only I had been paying more attention to those past midnight airings of NBA Matchup.
As it turned out, Joumana and T.J. didn't show up. Smart move on their part. The last thing they need to hear are the derogatory and dumb chants of idiotic Boston Frauds fans.
