Butler Doesn’t Regret Criticism of Coach Hoiberg

Jimmy Butler says he doesn’t regret the comments he made Saturday after the Chicago Bulls loss to the New York Knicks in which he said Fred Hoiberg had to coach the team “a lot harder.”

“Do I regret it? No.” Butler said after Monday’s shootaround. “[I was] a little frustrated after a loss, yeah, but then again, I put a lot of it on myself now because I gotta lead better, can’t allow stuff to happen. Yeah, we lost one I didn’t want to lose at home against Detroit and the way that we lost against New York. You got raw emotion right then and there [after the Knicks game].”
