Is there a fan base that complains more than the Knicks?

Yes, people who hate the Knicks.

As for the towel, I'm glad Copeland didn't step on it because that would of ended up badly.

Every fan base is the same. Just varies in volume based on size.

Has a coach ever done this and cause an injury? Would we see a $250k fine? What would the repercussions be?!!?!

wasn't intentional, thibs was just angry at robinson throwing a bad pass with his lob and turning it over...

but yes, he probably should've gotten a T but let's not disregard the final 8 minutes afterward.

He intended to throw the towel. If he didn't intend to throw it at a player's foot but was so careless he did anyway, then that's his fault, and really not any better, IMO.

Thibs' composure is horrible glass quality, no wonder the Bulls always choke in the playoffs. How can a team keep its calm when its head coach is breaking apart anytime something goes wrong

First, that's hilarious.

Second, Volcano is more hilarious.

Third, he should be fined. I wouldn't have T'd him up, but I'd think it could be a delay of game.

PS: Bulls fan.

How do the Bulls "always choke in the playoffs"?

2011 - Reached ECF, lost to Miami 4-1, each game was close in 4th Q.
2012 - Lost Rose, then lost Noah, lost to Philly in 6.
2013 - ???

Bulls defense is severely overrated by the refs and thus you end up with bad calls.

Pistons in 2004, everyone knew they were a defensive powerhouse and they were able to get away with alot of rough stuff as well.

However that being said, the NBA is extremely different than it was in 2004 and if no team gets the same kind of leeway with playing overly aggressive defense than the Bulls shouldnt either.

All these Knicks fans dont need to worry I doubt the Bulls even get out of the first round.

So he was angry but he had no reason or intentions to throw the towel?
