Johnson. Plus, a decision regarding Donovan and his decision about his future won't be too long ahead, a s a meeting is set for Monday after the regular season is over.
"I want it to be very clear, we want Billy continue to be the coach of the Chicago Bulls," Reinsdorf said.
Reinsdorf would continue talking about the approach of the team, were Donovan to stay on the team, such as the coach being "more involved" in personnel conversations, and when they eventually interview for a new general manager.
" If we're interviewing someone and they're not sold on Billy and a Hall of Fame coach and person who has won championships in college and gone deep in playoffs in OKC and, given teams he was given, achieved good results in Chicago, then they're not the right candidate for us," Reinsdorf said.

There's no denying how disappointing the Bulls have been this season, as the team is 29-49, putting them 12th in the East and eliminating them from playoff contention. It remains to be seen if Donovan stays on as head coach, but the goal for the team now is to finish off the regular season strong with four games left ahead of Tuesday against the Washington Wizards.
