Having Rondo can be crucial with that. Cousins really clicked with him and Rondo was his first legit mentor

I believe them when they say it's minor. Now if it was a Bulls source...I would question it.

On the injury front, Jimmy Butler turned an ankle but wasn't expected to miss any practices or games.

Sounds like a real "minor" and not a Noah-offseason-surgery "minor."

I want to see JImmy cutting, but Coach K's offense seems pretty basic.

Man I hope so. We're going to take some time to adjust and mesh this roster, especially for Butler to get used to sharing the scoring with Wade and Rondo as the distributor. We can't afford Butler with a busted ankle going into camp and especially into the season.

He's damaged goods.

NBA posted a vid on FB with Jimmy joking with Thibs "you still can't guard me". Also had him picking Melo's brain.

As for the Argentina game, pretty boring imo, and it would've been good to see Jimmy get some more touches.

Melo was telling Jimmy in one video I saw that he needs to make quicker decisions on attacking or moving the ball.

From looking at pops Usa select team practices he was calling out guys who just stand around specially Doug.
I expect more man movement when he takes over. Coach K loves aggressive traps and using length to overwhelm the other team.

Jimmy looks like one of our best defenders, and probably one of our least offensive threats on the wing for U.S.A.
