Re: Daily Herald: Now We'll See if Skiles' Skills are Long Term

Quote:
General manager John Paxson gave Skiles the right roster mix — solid youngsters who played for demanding college coaches like Skiles, and journeymen in no position to cause problems.

That isn’t to diminish what Skiles did with them after a 0-9 start. I thought he should have been NBA coach of the year for taking the Bulls to the playoffs.
This is really well said. It's how I feel, on both extremes: Skiles had a roster suited for him, but he also did a lot with it.
