In an interesting but sometimes wandering recent ESPN story that maybe attempts to weave together too many narratives, we nonetheless learned — or gleaned from some new voices — more about the dynamic in the Timberwolves locker room that preceded Jimmy Butler's trade to the 76ers. The Jackie MacMullan piece at times reads as an attempt at rehabilitating the perception of Karl-Anthony Towns … and a Derrick Rose comeback story … and a referendum on Jimmy Butler, but where it gains the most steam is in some strong standalone quotes from pretty much everyone except Towns. The non-confrontational Towns has his version of things more or less expressed by an interesting voice: John Calipari, who was both Towns' college coach at Kentucky and Rose's college coach at Memphis. The Calipari interview came in late November, not long after Butler had been traded, and spoke to the dynamic between Towns and Butler.
