Regardless of what direction you want this to go if this meeting is happening as reported it's a positive that they are having a dialog not just rolling with whatever happens.

How about offering Butler for Noah and Knox?

Jimmy: "Coach, just want to let you know i don't plan on resigning here after the season."

Thibs: "I wish you would have told me that at the beginning of the offseason"

Cool: "He didn't need to, I've been telling you since June. Now you're fucked."

A part of me blames Glen for not being proactive enough on this, but had he taken the reins on this situation he probably woulda said to Thibs and Jimmy, "pinky swear?"

Deng is thibs' hail mary at fixing this lockerroom because he sure as hell cant and neither can jimmy. Both seem to be part of the problem and not part of the solution.

I think it might be more than a coincidence that the bulls imploded as soon as deng left.

Jamal seems like a straight up guy abd was under the assumption that it was a minutes issue as to why he left. But, i think there might be more.

The Jimmy Butler news (per
@JonKrawczynski
) underscores the discontent in Minnesota. As Jamal Crawford told me on yesterday's Full 48, "For me, it just wasn't a happy environment. It just wasn't happy"

Jimmy don't hold back now. I hope Butler chokes Thibs Sprewell-style and they both are gone.

Next week will be more exciting than the past year's playoffs.
