http://www.suntimes.com/output/bulls/cart24.html The Chicago Bulls fired coach Bill Cartwright on Monday morning, the first casualty in a disappointing start to a a season that was supposed to bring marked improvement. .............................................. .................. ..... .. "The decision to relieve Bill at this time was a basketball decision," Paxson said in a statement. "The team is underperforming and we have to find ways to win, period. I am not satisfied with the team's start this season and changes have to be made. This represents the first change, but not necessarily the last." ..... .. "I knew there would be difficult times in this job, but none is harder than replacing a friend," Paxson said. "I have known Bill Cartwright as a teammate, as a colleague and as a friend for nearly as long as I've been in professional basketball. "I admire his hard work and his efforts and loyalty here. He will always be a Bull."s -- --
