    Man no one IS THAT dramatic. There is no way someone is that unprofessional at practice ALL the time.

    Put me down for $50 on Thibs if fists are thrown. He has that middle aged white man anger and guy is just a BEAST.

    Not sure you have either. Not saying he isn't a star, just not naive enough to believe guarding Durant won't cause a dip in his scoring. EG last year against the warriors provided a spark off the bench. That spark kept us in games. If those numbers dip, we don't win that series. Are actually insinuating Butler can do both jobs of Tuck and EG? Again, like I said in other posts, the second player does play a role, but as it stands I'm unconvinced that any guy who could play that second player is enough on this team. No way Butler puts up instant offense if he has the task of guarding Durant. He might get some scoring, sure, but not enough.

    Spare a thought for the many F5 buttons around the globe getting simultaneously pummelled at the moment...

    It is a joke...... WOJ has a history of being EXTREMELY dramatic in the past when he has written articles and not broken news.

    Didn’t Moses say he could take a bunch of guys from his hometown and beat everyone? That’s what a Jimmy just did in practice to the Wolves. He belongs here. Come on Draryl, get it done at an appropriate cost.

    Shouldn't this ordeal plummet his trade value a bit?

    It would have been nice to see Knight play a little. No way he’d be anywhere near EG off the bench, but I do like a Butler/Melo/CC frontcourt more than a Melo(or whoever)/PJ/CC. Just not sure at the expense of our bench scoring.

    "When Jimmy took the floor he was not wearing pants or underwear. He challenged all of his teammates claiming that his manhood was larger than any two players combined. No one accepted the challenge. Jimmy then took the ball and dunked on Towns and Wiggins and as they huddled crying under the rim, Jimmy proceeded to pee on them while Coach Thibs smiled and told Jimmy to finish them."

    It might, but what it definitely does is force Minny's hand. There is absolutely no way you can start the season with a guy who openly challenges teammates, coaches, and staff. It takes massive balls, but Jimmy's got 'em.
