The Bosses
Simple question. “Is everyone on the same page regarding the future direction of this team?”
is every1 on same page? Pax "I'm discouraged by narrative out there. You can get behind closed doors & discuss things. You can argue"….

Pax cont "But when we walk out & talk to you guys we're aligned as an org. To say me & Gar aren't working together, it's wrong" #Bulls

A novel idea, yes: argue behind closed doors, but come outside and we’re aligned as an organization. Paxson said this while SITTING ALONE AT THE PODIUM. After Paxson finished, Gar Forman emerged and fielded questions SEPARATELY. YOU’RE LITERALLY DOING THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT YOU CLAIM TO BE DOING.
Okay, so you all collectively have a plan?
Pax "We do have a plan, & it's one that's agreed upon between Gar, Michael and myself" #Bulls

Great! Let’s hear the plan.
Pax "Today's not the day to decide that [plan] or talk to you guys about it" #Bulls
…sooo you have a plan? or no?— Matt Peck (@Bulls_Peck) February 24, 2017
Are you f*%king kidding me? Which one is it? You have a plan, but today’s not the day to decide it. You have a plan, but today’s not the day to reveal it.
Blood pressure rising…
Final question, John: Are your jobs safe? You, Gar and Fred?
Pax "I believe our jobs are safe. And yes, Fred's our coach." #Bulls

Pax on Fred's growth "He's more laid back & I think our guys have responded to that. Fred is growing. I think our players like him" #Bulls

I can’t. I physically and mentally cannot. It might have something to do with the sleep-deprived, over-caffeinated, stressed out corpse of a human that’s currently typing, but I literally cannot. Not right now. I need to switch from coffee to beer, take a few deep breaths, and try to process what the hell Paxson just said.
Stay strong, Bulls Nation. I’ll come back stronger and more put together. Soon.
…just like Derrick Rose, but for real.
