He can be Acanthostega



The two graphs illustrate the different risk/reward associated with the possible coaching candidates in the following situations: if the Bulls get 2 key Free Agents vs. if Bulls don't land any big Free Agents.

The front office needs to be very calculated about which coach they hire this summer, and should base their decision on what free agents the Bulls do/don’t get. The type of coach we need for a Bulls squad that is similar to 2009-2010 is very different then the coach we would need for our current roster plus 2 newly signed superstars.

If we get 2 of the big Free Agents we will already have a team that is fully formed, which begs a certain type of coach able to orchestrate grandiose visions and egos. But if we don’t get any Free Agents, we need a whole different species of coach; someone with a generous orthodoxy. One who will allow the evolutionary arms race play itself out inside the complex ecosystem of team, because the progression of life forms has held many twists and turns. All of the sudden a leg grows instead of another eye, a fish suddenly grows fingers before they are necessary, and eventually one crawls out of the water and onto the shore newly fit to survive on land.
