While I won't reveal the source unless they want it:

I received a pm on muscoop about 15 months ago that may contribute to this story

"I'm not sure who he disliked on Marquette before, but there has been some chatter that he has become too "big time" for some of his former teammates.  Not sure how much of that is true, or simply the perception that occurs when one guy hits it big while most of his former teammates are toiling away in Europe or the Developmental League."

So, gossip about envy from former teammates. Sounds reliable to me  :P

I think it was DJO around the time Wojo held a camp for the pro alumni.

Butler had some heated words with college teammate Crowder late in the first half.

Crowder rebounded a miss by Wade - another Marquette product - and charged into Butler, leading to a heated exchange.

Rondo also got into it with Isaiah Thomas, and all four players got called for technicals.

''Jae's my guy,'' Butler said. ''It's the heat of the moment. That's what's supposed to happen.''

From a NBA fan standpoint, Butler and Harden are in the top five players I can't stand and root against while watching random games. This is coming from a MU fan that went there at the same time as JFB. He just seems like a dick on the court.

It's not Jimmy's fault if they can't along with Mark Wahlberg.
You actually have a degree from Marquette?

Quote from: muguru
No...and after reading many many psosts from people on this board that do...I have to say I'm MUCH better off, if this is the type of "intelligence" a degree from MU gets you. It sure is on full display I will say that.

Don't remember the exact tweet, but it was to the effect that someone had changed since their time playing together, and the general interpretation was that maybe Jimmy had got a bit too "big time" since he and DJO were teammates.

It's not just former guys from Marquette, it's basically everyone he's been around the last few years. Teammates have reportedly clashed as well as  Tibs. I mean the guy hangs out with Mark Wahlberg, grade A douche right there.

Thibs dislikes Jimmy so much he tried very hard to trade for him in the offseason.

The Jimmy thing is way more complex. I think he bears some of the blame, but a lot of it stems from Rose and his crew not liking someone other than Derrick being the "alpha" of the team. Remember, these people clashed with just about everyone in the Bulls organization in the previous four years, and made it clear that it was Derrick first, Bulls second in every way possible. Knowing what we know now about that bunch, I'm willing to give Jimmy the benefit of the doubt.

The Bulls PR schmeer machine has been in full force against Jimmy for 2.5 years now.  This is the same organization that happily showed the door to MJ, Phil and Thibs.  They do not want anyone getting bigger than the Bull.

It's less the Bulls PR machine that's been anti-Jimmy as it has been the DRose PR machine. Rose and his family have been a big deal in this town for a long, long time and they're well connected with the city's media. They're the ones who've been whispering about Jimmy, not the Bulls. Jimmy hasn't helped himself much because, yes, he's gotten more brash and arrogant and vocal, and he's allowed that to feed into his detractors. But he's still the hardest working guy in that locker room and wants to win as a Bull.
I rarely claim to have insider information around here, but on this I'm fairly certain.

As for the Bulls, it's a poorly run organization, but if they were anti-Jimmy, they had plenty of opportunity to deal him in the offseason for a decent return. They chose instead to deal Rose for very little, and let Noah walk without even making him an offer. That's not unimportant in this discussion. The coaching staff let it be known whose giant egos they would rather contend with.

I agree with this analysis.

Yup, Derrick and Reggie Rose along with BJ Armstrong were as someone else said on here, grade A douches. Jimmy got caught in the crossfire just because Rose was the hometown kid.

As a Bulls fan I am so happy Derrick and his wannabe brother are gone. Good riddance.
