2713932, This has been on my prayer list for years.

A few thoughts:
01. This is good news. The NBA has changed in the last 17 years, the Bulls haven't.
02. If Jim Boylen is still the coach when the 20/21 season begins, I'll know Karnisovas is slightly handcuffed. It won't surprise me, but it'll be disappointing.
03. Markkanen voicing his concerns about staying with the Bulls HAD to have forced their hand to act during this downtime.
04. Scouting will now look at prospects outside of Ames, IA.
05. I think there's something solid with this core. Lavine is on a very friendly contract. Markkanen definitely regressed but needs touches. Both Carter Jr. and
White are kids. These guys need good coaching and development.
06. Karnisovas was my 2nd choice after Webster from Toronto, but I'm happy. I got a little worried when the Pacers GM turned down the job.
07. This. Is. Good. News.
08. I still wanted a full house cleaning of the front office. Everyone from coaches to the Bulls trainer Jeff Tanaka. So it's not quite #FireGarPax.
