Jimmy Butler Controls Narrative While Wolves Remain Silent

Wednesday was a fiasco orchestrated by Jimmy Butler while the organization sat helplessly, silently by as the All-Star embarrassed the franchise and its key players in his return to practice.

After which, he gave an interview with Rachel Nichols on ESPN, once again reminding anyone who dare forget about it that he’s the hardest working guy around (when he decides to show up for training camp.)

The Wolves, meanwhile, said nothing. Apparently afraid of a repeat, Tom Thibodeau cancelled practice yesterday, but Jimmy Butler either organized a players-only meeting or he didn’t, depending on who you talk to, but some talking seems to have taken place.
