How long before the twolves fire fatass thibs?

[lakerboy]

Just curious!.

I told you guys years ago he is a fat trash can that had no idea how the NBA works. He got a free pass while Rivers coached.

[KRIT]

He is the Rex Ryan of the NBA. Better off as an assistant coach.

[BIGDAY]

I actually like him.

His style is becoming nonexistent though...

Twolves are done doesn't matter who is coaching now.. Butler just blew out his knee tonight on a non contact play... NBA players are to muscular these days, top heavy.. Knee joints and ligs cant take the upper body weight and hence a wrong move and jolt of the knee the ACL tears... Just a theory of mine

Twolves so called talent rich deep bench team better step up now as they just lost their best player and defender...

How long before the twolves fire fatass thibs?

[gauchojake]

[funnyb25]

I do not think Jimmy is toast - this has happened before. They will put up with Thibs as long as they win at the current rate. He would get old if your record was 20w 40L. But, I do agree with your acl theory.

They wont even make the playoffs now

[ChiLLx]

Everyone was trashing the Bulls when they made that Butler trade but they look like they made out like bandits...

Why the hell is Butler leading the league in minutes played per game? oh yeah, Thibs is his coach

Also playing year round basketball without rest from the age of 8. Offseasons used to be actual offseasons. Kids played multiple sports/used other muscles.

[rm18]

Huh Wolves have no bench at all? They are done.

[JIBBBY]

Yep players get fatigued and injures like a blown out knee can happen. Butler was playing alot of minutes.. Achilles tears can and do happen as well.. Gotta give the body proper rest..

It's mind blowing to me that Lebron being as big, heavy and explosive as he is hasn't blown out a knee yet or sustained a major injury.. Then again I don't remember Shaq having knee problems either.. Some athletes are just freaks and don't get injured.. Most other mortals do though...

Why isn't Dick Carlisle gone yet?

It's Rick by the way, but you can't go and fire Jim Carrey's doppelganger.

May not be the end of the Wolves after all. Possible - this may heal up in a reasonable amound of time.

To follow up on ACL's - Pros - major colleges - tape everybody. Skiers do not sprain ankles - big boots - but something has to give sometimes.

It is a long season - can actual build depth in a team to lose a star for a few weeks.

Looks like we got another Paul Peirce with the wheel chair.. Butler is a spicer....

Maybe these guys, especially LBJ, jus develop their entire bodies, not just upper body strength......Either way, plenty of athletes in all sports continue to play without injury, or play through them. Seems to me, NBA & MLB are the biggest, and most common of all sports.

Meniscal injury for Butler.
