Question: What style of play will Fred Hoiberg institute?
The Bulls have said their final farewells to the Tom Thibodeau era and are now entering the Fred Hoiberg era. The biggest question is how his style will translate to the Bulls and how they’ll transition from Thibodeau’s slower, defense first style to Hoiberg’s more uptempo style. Considering the Bulls’ roster, there’s no reason they can’t adjust to a faster style; Their players’ skills and athleticism complete it. It’ll all come down to the execution. The Bulls have been very good, and often times overachieved, under Thibodeau, but can they go from good to great a la the Warriors as they transitioned from Mark Jackson to Steve Kerr?
