I have had the thought lately that maybe Thibs has lost the team. For that type of coach, there is usually an expiration date where players keep listening. I don't know if that is what has happened, or not, but it crossed my mind.
I honestly couldn't foresee a Thibs-less Bulls a short time ago. It just seems inevitable to me at this point. Thibs is a good coach. Not a great coach. He rides his players too hard. I was actually surprised Gasol signed here given Thibs rep.
I mean this is the new era NBA where you rest players that aren't hurt. I think that would make Thibs head explode.
