The Jimmy Butler situation has been awful. As a fan of the NBA it has been interesting—at times—but has mostly just dragged on as every outlet has just rehashed the same talking points. It doesn’t seem like anyone knows what is going to happen next.
This whole saga has been entirely carried out off the court—until the season began. As soon as Butler was introduced to a mixed bag of boos and cheers in the Timberwolves home opener this debacle bled onto the court and now into the stands.
On Saturday night the Timberwolves faced the Mavericks and a chant started to rise from sections 112 and 113 in AAC.
