The Chicago Bulls have fired head coach Bill Cartwright after an 4-10 start.

Pete Myers will be the interim head coach and general Manager John Paxson hopes to name a full-time replacement within the next week.

"The team is underperforming and we have to find ways to win, period," Paxson said. "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."

Cartwright was 51-100 in almost two seasons as head coach. coach
