We don't know if he is a lead dog or not. He was never in a position in Chicago to be the lead dog. He is now, so we will see how it plays out.
There are plenty of players who hadn't been lead dogs earlier in their careers, who ended up doing just fine as lead dogs later on.
Butler should have been lead dog after Rose left. Hes been their best player since after all.
The Chicago front office screwed their entire team up anyways. So its not entirely Butler's fault of course. They were close to going up 3-1 on the Cavs before the Gasol injury and then like morons they let Thibs go for a clueless coach and let Rose go and Gasol took off. Now they are in the pickle they are in.
There was no need to make drastic changes. They just needed to bring 1-2 more key guys in. Im sure Rondo takes off now too. Hes not gonna want sit around on that sinking ship with a front office that can't make a good decision to save their life. And they didn't even get anything for Butler. Shows how clueless they are.
