He has a lot of yelling to do because this team continues to play like garbage for long stretches of the game. How many dumb F'ing plays has G made this year? A ton. How many dumb plays have seemingly everyone but Taj and Jimmy made this year? A ton. You watch them play in this system and they're just playing a different game than everyone else. If you want Thibs to stop yelling then do something about it that's productive on the court. There's a big problem if his micro-managing yells are something that you aren't already thinking in the course of the play/game. That means you don't know what you are doing out there relative to what he wants you to be doing and you should know where you need to be/go by this point in the year.

So Thibs just happens to have a collection of players who have to be told every move to make during games while on the court? Wow, what bad luck. Thibs said he was inheriting the best young roster in the NBA. Turns out he inherited the dumbest roster in the NBA. Thankfully, he got rid of the idiot Ricky Rubio who seems lost in Utah without a head coach choreographing his every move. I'm surprised that team is in the playoffs given the identify of their now lost starting PG.

I the coach doesn't have his team ready to play without being repeatedly told what to do in games by the end of the season, that's on the coach. Otherwise, let's trade everyone, including the veteran Teague who Thibs is constantly directing on the court. Oh, Thibs did the same thing in Chicago. So I guess it's not the players; it's what Thibs does. Yes, the Bulls had success under Thibs. But it doesn't mean his approach to coaching is optimal for the Wolves or any other team. There isn't another head coach in the League who barks repeatedly and micromanaged the way Thibs does. It's who he is and I think it slows and demoralizes the team.

You're at the games. You can hear stuff. We all know Thibs seems to be micromanaging quite a bit... but is for everybody? Does he yell at Butler and Gibson as much as Wiggins and KAT?
