Here is a piece of great news to all the countless fans of the Chicago Bulls around the world.

The upcoming signing of Boston Celtics assistant coach Tom Thibodeau as its new head coach is superb news to the franchise and its fans in this planet.

As a veteran coach Thibodeau is expected to provide stability and solid team-work for the Bulls so that the team will be more competitive in the next season of the National Basketball Association.

Aside from his skills and veteran leadership, according to basketball experts the hiring of Thibodeau could also entice Cleveland Cavaliers superstar forward Lebron "King" James to sign with the team.

Being one of the top coaches in the NBA, the experts said James would be happy to sign with the Bulls and play alongside Thibodeau especially that the Cavaliers do not have a coach at the moment.

James earlier said that one of the things he is looking for the team he will play is its winnability and the coach who will guide the team.

If ever James will eventually sign with the Bulls it would be welcome news to the franchise and its fans since he can certainly bring a lot of difference to the team.

Once James signs with the Bulls he is expected to team-up with rising point-guard Derrick Rose to make sure the team will be successful in the next NBA season.

The Bulls is currently pursuing actively James who will become a free-agent this year. The Bulls has enough salary cap to sign James and one more NBA superstar for the team.

James in a recent interview revealed that he had not yet chosen which team to sign but hinted possibility that he will re-sin with the Cavaliers.

The Bulls has decided to hire Thibodeau since he has huge basketball knowledge to help the campaign of the team in the next NBA season.
I think Thibodeau is a great signing for Chicago but I'm not sure that he'll be all that influential in swaying LeBron to make the switch. He certainly has the potential to be a great coach but as for now he's an unproven commodity. If LeBron is really after a coach who is a demonstrated winner then NJ and Avery Johnson has to be the front runner.

What Chicago has to offer over the other teams is a quality young core of Rose, Noah and Gibson.
