It's very possible that Jimmy Butler is planning to leave Minnesota, and it's very possible Butler is not happy being here now, but if Joe Cowley wrote a column stating that "Tomorrow is the Fourth of July" it would be worth checking twice just to see if the date got changed.

I'll shut up about this now, but one last thing: This is truly the mark of an unhinged, uninformed troll throwing shit against the wall. It would be like saying, "LeBron James is bad at basketball." @brittrobson is the best basketball writer in Minnesota. https://t.co/pe4EG02UWC

If anyone believes Joe Cowley is an agenda-free, objective reporter, then they are a lousy judge of character. Ignore the bullshit. Butler, Thibs, Towns, Wiggins are together for the 2018-19 season. Everyone knows the rubber meets the road a year from now. Many Q answered by then
