One may joke that Jerry Krause will hire the best high school coach but Jay Mariotti of Chicago Sun-Times is tired of laughing.

Mariotti suggests that the only way to fix the Bulls is if Krause departs. ?He is the problem, the impediment, the rash, the know-it-all who knows nothing, the feeble leader of the aborted Organizations Win Championships tour?, wrote Mariotti.

Mariotti suggests that the only way to revive interest and improve the team is by hiring a proven NBA coach. He believes that it is useless to suggest Jeff Gundy, Mike Dunleavy, Danny Ainge or Dave Cowens as long as Krause is the manager.
