What Will Pete Myers Do?

I have a feeling we will see a change in the lineup tonight. I also have a feeling that the Bulls will play more energy and less structure. They may run a lot of pick and roll. I suspect that Pete Myers WANTS this interim job and that he asked Pax for the opportunity hoping that if he can get some energy out of the Bulls and get them to beat Dallas and San Antonio Paxson would be hard pressed to replace him then. The players all love Myers so they should play hard for him. And don't be surprised to see Myers animated on the sidelines, he was like a cheerleader as an asst coach last season. I think Myers will do something like this with his lineup:

g-Crawford
g- Hinrich
(they will both play pg at various times, splitting duties)
sf-Rose
pf-Chandler
C-Curry

I expect that Marshall may start in place of Chandler if Chandlers back is bad. I think Pip, Marshall and Gill will get most of the time off of the bench.

Anyone else have any ideas on What Would Pete Myers Do?

Before facing Miami on the night Pat Riley returned to coaching, Scott Skiles was asked his feeling about going against legendary coaches such as Riley and Phil Jackson, in town with the Lakers last Friday.

“They should be more concerned about going up against me,” the Bulls coach replied with a straight face.

Any reporters waiting for a laugh or a smile from Skiles never got one.

“There are 30 of these jobs,” Skiles continued. “He (Riley) has one. I have one. I’ve played against him. I’ve coached against him already. He’s a coach. He’s a very good one. He has a long, great record.

“I don’t mean to sell it short, but I’m not intimidated by anybody.”

Heck, after seeing the fourth quarter in Sac, I'd be linclined to start

Hinrich
Crawford
ERob
Chandler
Curry

Let's see how the run and gun can do against another offensive machine that doesn't run back on D.

I saw Myers coach the summer league team two years ago in SLC and he SUCKED! Spend the whole time complaining to the refs and yelling at the players. Seemed very energetic, and kinda out of control. Hope he can do better this time around. Also, I'd like to see that starting line-up with KH, JC, ER, TC, and EC. We come out of the gates with a full out blitz, wear down the starters and then bring in Fizer, Marshall, Pip, Rose to abuse the bench players. To end the game play who ever's playing hard and well.

If he turns that crew that played the 4th quarter of the Kings game loose, it will be a track meet. One problem, though: Jackson, Buford, Massenburg, Peeler and Songaila aren't the Mavs. We may give up 200 points tonite!

Still, it would be fun to watch! I'm game...what have we got to lose but another ballgame?

As much as I want to see us run normally, I'm not sure I want to see us try to run and gun against the Mavs... but yeah, it would be fun to watch! Maybe we should wait to do that against the Spurs.

As far as lineups, I would LOVE for Jamal/Kirk/Erob/Tyson/Eddy to start. That is my favorite lineup. HOWEVER, I'm kind of interested to see what's going on in Jalen's little head. Considering Pete's just the interim head coach, I'm not sure he will adjust the lineup much from BC's, he might wait for Skiles to do that. If that's the case, he might keep Jalen as the starter. I'm not a Jalen fan, but who knows, maybe he will work his azz off these next 2 games so he starts on Skiles' good side and doesn't get shipped to the North, eh?

Nothing... his library card has been revoked and given to Scott Skiles.
