Who said Tom Thibodeau was going to take a year off?

Everybody knew Thibs couldn't just sit at home, twiddling his thumbs until the 2016-17 NBA season.

The former Bulls coach hopped on ESPN Wednesday, breaking down the NBA Finals on "SportsCenter."

Thibs talked about how Matthew Dellavedova - the most-discussed athlete in the country right now - is knocking Steph Curry off his rhythm as the Cavs have picked up back-to-back wins to take a 2-1 lead in the series.

Dellavedova has played Curry tough the last couple games, but Thibodeau thinks the reigning NBA MVP is ready to break out offensively:

"He's gonna be a force to be reckoned with in the next game," Thibodeau said.

You have to figure Thibodeau, a ultra-competitive guy who wanted to grind it out every second of every game, is really enjoying watching Dellavedova play.

I'm sure Thibs would jump at the chance to coach him, too, but that's a storyline for a different day.
