Thibs downfall will be his inability to develop young players.

-Traded James Johnson after 23 games of coaching him
-Jimmy Butler averaged 8.3 minutes per game his rookie season, when he clearly could have helped the Bulls... ended up forced to play him the following year because Deng's injury
-Played Hinrich over Tony Snell his last year in Chicago, Snell now starts for the Bucks
-Trades Dunn after a year with him

I'm sure I can pull out more situations, but the dude has a record of having an entirely short leash on players rendering young guys useless come Playoff Time because they don't have the reps/confidence to contribute. So he plays his "guys" extensive minutes and they just wear down in a series.

Good Luck Minnesota
:hubie:

Last year Gorgui Deng looked like a legit player. Now Taking Gibson taking all the minutes. They gonna get stomped in the playoffs.
