The draft-night trade of Butler to Thibodeau’s Timberwolves left Butler’s personal trainer, Travelle Gaines, fuming. Gaines held back nothing in his anger toward Bulls management.

DEVENEY: Wolves steal Butler, put finishing touches on rebuild 

Gar Forman is the Bulls’ GM, and his recent job performance has made him few friends in general. Last offseason he brought in Dwyane Wade and Rajon Rondo to team with Butler, then watched a largely dysfunctional group finish 41-41 and lose in the first round of the playoffs to the Celtics.

Few, if any, people have equated Forman with drug dealers, though. Gaines went there Thursday, and now we have a new round of drama in Chicago.
