If Jim Boylen sounds like a man grasping for anything to inspire confidence in his job performance, well, there might be a reason for that. The Chicago Bulls head coach is 23-55 since taking over for Fred Hoiberg in 2018, and his young, potential-laden roster has yet to show much — if any — improvement. Which is how you end up in the position where Boylen was after Friday's 107-103 home loss to a reeling Portland Trail Blazers team, quoting a movie about baseball ghosts to explain his reluctance to adapt his game plan with basketball players who are very much alive.
