Hoiberg insists he can work with Bulls All-Star Butler
Called out by Jimmy Butler last season, Chicago Bulls coach Fred Hoiberg insisted Monday that he can still work with the two-time All-Star guard.
This headline is troubling. Jimmy Butler played successfully for one coach and his game wasn't fully compatible with his team's all-star point guard. Hoiberg isn't the only one needing to show he can work with a team.
As an example, Golden State moved hybrid PG/SG Monta Ellis and drafted the taller Klay Thompson to play next to Steph Curry as a SG/SF. Under both Jackson and Kerr, both players figured a way to move the ball and work together to win a championship and set NBA win record.
Jimmy Butler will need to find a way to work within a more dynamic offense. That's the NBA right game now and it's up to Bulter to figure a way to fit into Hoiberg's offense. Isolation plays are for stat hounds and LeBron James.
Rose was sent packing and it's time for Butler to respond.
