ATLANTA – It was the big lie sold to the NBA community and fan base.
The false narrative that somehow former Bulls coach Tom Thibodeau was running his players into the ground by overplaying them.
Dished out in a bowl by his then-front office and slurped up by many.
Facts be damned. The binoculars were out, the fingers were on the sirens, and the minutes police were on full surveillance, trying to take shots at Thibodeau despite a successful tenure.
