Sessions is playing well and it's no surprise. He's a very good player that just didn't fit in our system because he's a poor jump shooter.

14 points 9 rebounds 6 assists

on what shooting percentages?


.420

NBA.com finally added a preseason page for Sessions, so I don't have to figure it all out.

Everyone new Sessions was a good player, he just wasn't fit for the Timberwolves... The media will probably make us look bad in this situation though

Durant just said Darko is one of best centers in the league. For once, I'm not being sarcastic in a tweet. #Twolves

Wasn't that caused by him getting hit by a car as a kid?


Sessions is only good when he can pound the ball waiting for an open man. Problem with that being he is not a good enough player for a team to let him do that and win consistently.

The cause isn't directly specified, but could be contributed to a number of things. Severely sick as a baby, breathing troubles, oversized baby teeth, getting hit by a car when he was a toddler. He had a rough life as a child for sure.

Lakers/Jazz game is fun on NBA TV right now. AK-47 looks like he's coming back to old form. I don't know what the heck has been up with Al's rebounding lately.

Holy crap, the Nuggets bench destroyed the Suns.

Sessions was arguably our best point guard last year...but he's an average player at the end of the day.

Inability to shoot the ball well will make it hard for him to fit ANY system. 1-15 last year from 3...bleh.

I'm absolutely fine rolling with Ridnour, waiting for Flynn, and then inserting Ricky before next season. I will not be following Ramon's box scores.

Sessions is not good for our system. It doesn't seem friendly to a lot of PG's. Now if this was McHale's system, where everything was more
just play basketball" Sessions would be a baller.
