The Chicago Bulls finally made a move that will usher in a new era for the franchise after years of disappointment. On Monday, the team announced they were moving on from Art\u016bras Karni\u0161ovas and Marc Eversley after another bad year in the Windy City.<\/p>\n

With those moves, a search for those positions will open up and get underway as the season winds down. You would think Chicago would be an attractive destination as they have some cap space and potentially two lottery picks to work with. But this thing needs to be torn down once again and rebuilt.<\/p>\n

There\u2019s another another big factor that could steer top candidates away. At least, according to another report out this week.<\/p>\n

Is Jerry Reinsdorf costing the Chicago Bulls again?!

National NBA reporter Zach Lowe<\/a> touched on the Chicago Bulls\u2019 situation going into this offseason and had some concerning things to say about it. Lowe believes a \u2018lack of trust\u2019 in ownership could steer top candidates away from the job:<\/p>\n

\u201cI talked to a front office free agent who would have his pick of any job if they came open, and he said to me \u2018What would you do if you\u2019re me?\u2019 I said whoever saves the Bulls will be a legend in the NBA forever\u2026 and he said to me \u2018That sounds great in theory. I don\u2019t trust the ownership.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

That\u2019s not a good thing you want to hear if you\u2019re a Bulls fan. Chicago has already been connected to some targets who are rising candidates in the league.\u00a0 That includes Kyle Korver and Mike Dunleavy Jr.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

However, it\u2019s pretty well known how messy this situation is around the league. The hope is that a historic franchise like this is enough to land a top candidate. This is a huge hire for the Bulls and it\u2019s crucial they get it right.<\/p>\n

Time will tell if they did and if they finally get this on track.<\/p>\n
