Power ranking the Bulls’ interesting candidates for top executive position

The Chicago Bulls are conducting quite an interesting interview process as they search for a new general manager. Here are power rankings for their top GM candidates.

Quarantine has got even the Chicago Bulls rethinking their current toxic relationships.

As ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski reported on April 3, the Bulls are conducting a formal search process for a new top executive who will oversee all basketball decisions for the once-proud NBA franchise. While “GarPax” — general manager Gar Forman and vice president of basketball operations John Paxson — will likely continue to serve in advisory roles, it appears the Windy City is embracing the winds of change after several years of ineptitude and irrelevance.

While it’s unknown who will be the new GM of the Bulls (or if they’ll even bother with an official GM title at all), several candidates have emerged in the last week as potential candidates to provide new leadership for Chicago as the new executive VP of basketball operations.

Some of them are pretty solid. Some of them are outright laughable. Two (Indiana Pacers GM Chad Buchanan and Miami Heat GM Adam Simon) have already turned them down. The overall, erm, complexion of these candidates is qwhite interesting, but a lack of diversity shouldn’t be mistaken for a lack of, well, immense distance between some of these executives on the spectrum of success.

In the interest of identifying who belongs where on that scale, here are definitive power rankings of the candidates involved with the Bulls’ search for a new top executive.
