“I think Michael was making the point of how he felt about me,”
Donovan said after Reinsdorf made it clear Tuesday he wants him
to remain in the job. “But I also understand that, like I said,
everybody’s got to look out for what is best for the Bulls at
that point in time.”
The Bulls made sweeping changes to their front office on Monday,
firing executive vice president of basketball operations Arturas
Karnisovas and general manager Marc Eversley after a six-year
run produced just one playoff appearance.
Donovan has yet to decide on his future, however. The
60-year-old plans to meet with Reinsdorf after the season.
“I love it here,” Donovan said. “I’ve loved the relationship
piece. Not only Jerry and Michael, but the people in the
building, the staff. It’s been an awesome working environment,
and I enjoy it. But we’re at this place because we really
haven’t won a lot.”
Donovan is finishing his 11th season in the NBA and sixth with
Chicago, after he appeared in the playoffs in each of his five
seasons in Oklahoma City.
His teams have advanced beyond the first round only once, when
Oklahoma City reached the 2015-16 Western Conference finals in
his first season.
