These Tom Thidodeau rumors just won’t die. It’s incredibly odd that they exist at all. Thibodeau is by no means a perfect coach, but the Chicago Bulls seem utterly unhappy with him, even after he’s led them to recurring playoff berths despite a host of injuries to key players over the last four seasons.
