His offense should not be ripped, if anything rip his defense.

Rambis needs to be ripped for the entire offense.



LOL, good stuff

Dont forget about how he should be ripped for the defensive scheme too...

Generally coaches on 13 and 41 teams get ripped for everything

It's looked pretty bad that's for sure. I really just wish we'd scrap the triangle and slow it down and call plays for our better players. There is no reason for so many random players shooting 10+ times while Love shoots less than that.

Did people in this debate actually prefer NOT to have Beasley? I thought it was just being discussed as an interesting topic, not people actually wanting Mike out. Why do people forget Mike was the leading scorer and arguably the best player on the team until Jan and rolled ankle after rolled ankle showed up?

oh the discussion is about playing "without" mike. i don't believe this thread is about people wanting mike out of the team though.


in the end though, with or without mike, we're still losing games, but mike could really help our offense this week. we are looking bad out on the court offensively.

I love Beasley as a go-to end of game player. Nobody else on the team nor in potential free agents can match his skill there. He's necessary for that role imo. Needs to be a more consistent 20 ppg scorer though and those highlight defensive plays are great, but most often times occur on the break, rarely in halfcourt situations where a defensive presence is sorely missed.

In the last 5 games Mike has been out, Love has been scoring 17.6 per game. I bet he misses Mike

Mike draws attention and is one of the better defenders on the team. Front office/Rambis and co should take some advise from Gilbert Arenas and surround these guys with more veterans. I would even suggest maybe trying to acquire Gilbert. On paper the Wolves should be winning but rarely do young teams have success. The most successful teams with the exception of OKC are also the oldest teams.
