FT's really stand out. Lost by 2, you have to look at all of those free throws.

If Kahn/Taylor would have listened to Adelman....

You are. Your off-ball guard (Kemba, I think) there ALSO tried to call a timeout, then immediately berated Williams when HE did…

Props to the team for the effort, it's incredible they were so close to win the game after all. Last minutes it was pure timbertroll basket, I don't remember a game where I have laughed so much, LOLcats were really funny :lol: .

The Bobcats might be bad, but we're not going to beat many teams with half a team and our three best players out. Good fightback though, I really hope we can get healthy eventually.

In the history of the NBA, has there been a GM who has a worst draft resume than KAHN?

Jonny Flynn
Ty Lawson(Traded)
Wayne Ellington
Wesley Johnson
Lazar Hayward
Derrick Williams
Robbie Hummel


He's done a **** job at drafting.Yes the Rubio pick was great but besides that he has had three top ten bust in Flynn,Johnson and Williams,Trade away Lawson and Hayward is garbage with only Ellington being a solid back up.That's a terrible draft history.

The Rubio and then Flynn pick right after was a huge mistake.Again at the time of the draft I said draft Rubio and Curry(yes curry is very injury prone) and also when he daft Johnson I had said he should have drafted Cousins.The only pick besides Rubio that I did agree with was the Williams pick.I would have done the same thing even though he's pretty much a bust.

Then theirs also the Al Jefferson trade....

just a little FYI two of the three best players on the team in Love and Pekovic were McHale picks.

What a crazy game. I had a feeling going in with the injuries to both teams it was gonna be a clown show...but I didn't realize how big of a clown show.

You know that phrase "he does all the little things to help the team win"...Derrick Williams does ZERO little things.

AK47 is incredible. He has the hustle of Corey Brewer combined with stellar BBIQ and an ability to finish at the rim. (Yeah, I'm a member of the Brew Crew). AK47 is still a top-flight glue guy in the NBA.

Stiemsma was the "Cleveland Steamer" tonight. He can play decent defense in the post, but other than that he just seems like a big lumbering physical presence. I also thought the days of being annoyed with a player for sagging off on defense to go for a block were gone when we lost Anthony Randolph...but Steamer is keeping that tradition going as well.

Pek being in there to prevent BJ Mullens from going off on the glass would've been enough to seal the victory.

Looking ahead to Golden State...Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, David Lee, and Carl Landry will be a handful for the current wolves roster.

Then Williams would have probably been traded for Batum and we wouldn't have Kirilenko now.
