The Chicago Bulls faced off against the Oklahoma City Thunder at home on Tuesday night, and despite a 41-point night from Zach LaVine, Chicago fell by a final score of 124 to 122. The fourth quarter was a fairly tight affair, but the Thunder simply out-executed the Bulls down the stretch.
Late in the game, LaVine seemed to be quite upset with the Bulls Head Coach Jim Boylen as cameras caught him mouthing some spicy statements aimed at his coach:
"I have f***** 40 points!"

Indeed, much of Boylen’s coaching has seemingly fallen on deaf ears during his surprisingly long tenure with the team, and LaVine has been one of the main detractors.
Though the head coach has softened his stance on militaristic practice techniques and overly zealous training regimens, it seems his nominal star player has had about enough of Boylen’s machinations in his sixth season in the league.
