It was naive to think “shock and awe” — the words Boylen used to describe his early approach — made more sense than “wait and see” when taking over a team limited in large part because of injuries. The guy hired to improve the Bulls’ effort simply tried too hard to make a strong first impression. The rest of the season offers Boylen a second chance to prove he isn’t oblivious to the NBA world around him, he isn’t incapable of connecting with players whom he already might have lost, he isn’t destined to go down with Terry Bevington and Mike Quade and Marc Trestman in Chicago sports lore as good guys who were bad hires.
