The Chicago Bulls announced today that Del Harris, Bernie Bickerstaff & Bob Ociepka will be hired as assistant coaches on Vinny Del Negro?s coaching staff. In addition, Pete Myers will remain in his current role as assistant coach.  In accordance with club policy, terms of the contracts were not announced.

?When I first accepted this position, I made it a top priority to surround myself with an experienced coaching staff. Now, with the hiring of Del Harris, Bernie Bickerstaff, Bob Ociepka and current assistant coach Pete Myers, you would be hard pressed to find a staff with the combined number of years experience that we have assembled,? stated Del Negro.  ?I already have specific ideas on how to use their past experience in our efforts to get this team where we want it to be.?
