Adams said him and Thibodeau were wanting to draft Green because of his unique skill set and the hustle he brought to the floor, but they couldn’t convince management.
Chicago Sun Times article using the same above quote, but attributing it to include Thibs as well.
I doubt Ron Adams would have been lobbying for Green without Thibs endorsement.
I couldn't tell if the previous poster was trying to make the claim that it was Adams, and not Thibs in fact, that the Draymond/Chi rumor should be attributed to. I thought his post was confusing.
I just wanted to find a more direct link to Thibs.
