Nothing has been going right for Tom Thibodeau lately.
When it became clear the Chicago Bulls head coach's firing was imminent, local artist Bae Cutler created a public art piece in remembrance of the father of poor minutes management's time at the helm of the Bulls.
However, the touching tribute was short-lived. A day after Thibodeau was relegated to the coaching carousel, the piece was gone, Jeremy Woo of Sports Illustrated reported Friday.
The artist, famed for his "Pray 4 Rose" mural after point guard Derrick Rose suffered a torn meniscus, did share how "Pray 4 Thibs" came into being on Imgur.
