Collins, Bulls decide against second marriage

Doug Collins and the Chicago Bulls won’t be reuniting.

Concerned that a second tenure as Bulls coach would spoil their friendship, Collins told chairman Jerry Reinsdorf to look elsewhere during a phone conversation on Friday.

“I called Jerry this afternoon and said, ‘Let’s move forward and make sure we stay the friends that we have been for 25 years,’ ” said Collins, who coached Chicago from 1986-89. “It had to be a home run, and both of us had a little angst over it. So we both agreed it wasn’t the best to keep going this way.”

Judge will rule on Sonics

U.S. District Judge Marsha Pechman said she will rule Monday on motions in the city of Seattle’s lawsuit that seeks to prevent the NBA’s SuperSonics from relocating to Oklahoma City.

Those motions include whether certain witnesses and evidence will be presented at trial. The city is suing to force the team to play out the two seasons remaining on its KeyArena lease.
