The Bulls have now begun the search for assistant coaches, for the 2008-2009 upcoming season. Del Negro reportedly will be working with John Paxson to fill his assistant staff. Two interesting names have popped up over the last few weeks, one being X-Bulls Champion Toni Kukoc. Del Negro and Kukoc hooped together back in the day in Europe and remain close. The other big name is Tom Thibodeau, the defensive mastermind, who is currently helping the Celtics shut down Kobe in the finals. It's important the Bulls add some solid assistants, with different coaching experiences because Del Negro is lacking so much in that department. Del Negro has a business background in the NBA thus far (running the front office for the Suns). Maybe he could install a management coaching style where the assistants work closer with the players... Thibodeau (Defensively) and the waiter Kukoc (Offensively)??? and Del Negro looks at the bigger picture, like Phil Jackson.
