In the middle of Jimmy Butler-Minnesota Timberwolves Drama, franchise legend Kevin Garnett says his opinion – again.

While making an appearance on TNT's pre-game show Before the start of the 2018-19 season on Tuesday night, Garnett took a chance at T & # 39; Wolves' owner, Glen Taylor.

"I totally understand (Butler) .I completely understand and he is dealing with Glen, who does not know (that's explicit) basketball" Said Garnett on the live broadcast. "He knows how to make money, but he knows nothing about basketball, I would not say that he is the best basketball spirit."

According to Taylor, T & # 39; Wolves are still considering dealing with Butler, who requested an exchange at the organization last month.

"I think Butler has made it clear that he will no longer sign with us at the end of the year and that it is therefore in our interest to get an exchange to be able to replace it with one or two players help our team, "said Taylor on Tuesday, according to the Star Tribune.

For now, however, Butler remains with Minnesota, and he should be ready for the opening match of the Timberwolves on Wednesday night.
