Skiles relieved as Bulls Head Coach
At this time, no decision has been made on Skiles' replacement
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
December 24, 2007
Chicago Bulls Executive Vice President of Basketball Operations John Paxson today announced that Scott Skiles has been relieved of his duties as the team's head coach.
In a statement released this morning, Paxson said:
"This was a difficult decision to make, but one that was necessary at this time. Scott helped us in many ways during his time with the Bulls; most importantly, he helped this franchise get back to respectability. I am appreciative of his hard work and the imprint that he left on our team."
At this time, no decision has been made on Skiles' replacement. On Nov. 28, 2003, Skiles became the fifteenth head coach in franchise history when he succeeded Bill Cartwright.
Over the span of five seasons with the Bulls, he compiled a record of 165-172 (.490), and guided the team to the playoffs three consecutive years, highlighted by a first-round series sweep of the defending NBA Champion Miami Heat in the 2007 NBA Playoffs.
In eight-plus seasons as a head coach in the NBA, Skiles owns a career coaching record of 281-251 (.528).
