I wouldn't even be mad if they kept Tyus Jones as the backup. |

he was great. I watched a ton and he played like I thought he could. I love watching that kid create. edit: Rubio, not Jones. |

I just think it's funny that Thibs literally greeted him at the airport.

There was a time when Thibs coached the Bulls it seemed that he had a full head of hair. Then Thibs would look down, and you could see that big bald spot. As time went on, it seemed that he had more and more landscape to cover, and it was a really bad look. From that shot, he's just another bald guy. Here is a period photo from 2010:

He doesn't have that look you want associated with your brand. He needs to cut his hair. |

This should accelerate Thibs' installation of his defense. If they're mediocre in that department this year then I'd be puzzled. |

Having Butler, Gibson, other former players he'll sign, etc., will help him teach and implement that system. |

The Chicago Timberwolves still needs shooters. |

They need a shooter. CJ Miles, Dion Waiters, Nick Young, Kyle Korver, Gerald Green. |

Taj getting $14M a year is insane. He's on the back 9 of his career and is best suited as a 7th man. It's probably a good idea to avoid former players for this reason. They could have gotten a couple of really good shooters for that price and they still have Dieng and Muhammad. |

14M is the new 7M in this new structure. I mean Tony Snell is at 12M. Think about that. |
