The Bulls announced yesterday the signing of Ed Pinckney, another assistant coach, to further bolster the staff supporting Tom Thibodeau. The release says that Pinckney indeed has assistant-coaching experience, serving in that capacity with the Minnesota Timberwolves from 2007-2009 and with Villanova from 2003-2007.
Pinckney becomes the Bulls’ fifth assistant coach. One hopes the Bulls’ bench has enough seats to accommodate them as well as the players.
