Jose Barea 6.5 (good effort lately from him)
Michael Beasley 6 (exected more from him, pretty imature, looks like a guy who perform great on a bad team)
Wayne Ellington 5
Wesley Johnson 2
Malcolm Lee /
Kevin Love 9 (would like more deffence everything else is perfect)
Darko Milicic 4
Brad Miller 5
Nikola Pekovic 8.5 (next season hope he can go for 17.5+ pts 9reb+ 1a+ 1 bl + on 55%+... I think it is very realistic)
Anthony Randolph 6.5
Luke Ridnour 7 (solid, but you want more from your starter)
Ricky Rubio 8.5 (it would be awesome if he can improve his shoot even a little bit)
Anthony Tolliver 5
Martell Webster 6
Derrick Williams 6.5 (He showed some flashes and why he was no.2 pick, but all in all I expected more, he didn't really disappointed me, because I think it is pretty clear that he will be future star)

Jose Barea 6 ... pressed too much due to poor team shooting/injuries - Bold and has leadership
Michael Beasley 1 ... ruins the whole experience of watching an NBA game - Anti Rube
Wayne Ellington 3 ... like his effort & attitude, but he just can't seem to find a consistent fit.
Wesley Johnson 2 ... weird to see a player drafted to shoot - shoot so poorly
Malcolm Lee 5 ... he gets a pass as it's clear he will defend well once 100%
Kevin Love 10 ... exceeded expectations - he is driven and owns this team
Darko Milicic 2 ... just dont know whether he likes basketball or not
Brad Miller 2 ... enjoy retirement
Nikola Pekovic 8 ... Pekasauerus on the rise
Anthony Randolph 3 ... still looks medicated much of the time
Luke Ridnour 6 ... good team player - thought he played well at SG offensively.
Ricky Rubio 10 ... proven game changer his first season - made NBA fun again (for me)
Anthony Tolliver 5 ... right attitude for a limited role - just off his game offensively
Martell Webster 4 ... a mediocre player but too expensiv right now for what he can do.

Jose Barea 6 - can be frustrating, but overall better as the year went on
Michael Beasley 4 - a good guy, but had a horrible year.. likely won't be back
Wayne Ellington 4 - don't expect a whole lot out of him, but needs to hit open shots
Wesley Johnson 2 - I think a 2 is generous.. he doesn't bring much to the court
Malcolm Lee 3 - didn't get to see enough.. think he'll bring more once healthy
Kevin Love 10 - he brings so much to the team.. hopefully works on his D this summer
Darko Milicic 1 - gave up.. go back to Serbia
Brad Miller 2 - good guy for the team, but its time for retirement
Nikola Pekovic 8 - was a force down there, but needs to stay healthy next year
Anthony Randolph 5 - showed some at the end of the year, but probably won't be back
Luke Ridnour 6 - frustrates some people, but actually very consistent
Ricky Rubio 9 - completely changed the dynamic on the team when he was on the floor
Anthony Tolliver 3 - really not very good basketball player
Martell Webster 4 - I wonder what he would be like without all the surgeries
Derrick Williams 4 - very disappointing.. gave up at the end of the year (tired?)

Jose Barea - 6 Tried to play his game. Needs to be a better teammate but shooting is his style.

Michael Beasley - 3 Wanted to play well, I don't believe that he "didn't care" at least early on. Just never got it together and underperformed greatly.

Wayne Ellington - 4 Never established himself like I think he should. He can easily be a good role player when he does.

Wesley Johnson - 2 I don't know if he tried as hard as he could have. Never put anything together. Didn't even show any real flashes beyond a few heads up plays on defense.

Malcolm Lee - 5 Looked good. Showed some flashes but nothing special.

Kevin Love - 9 Great year, just needs to work on his defense more.

Darko Milicic - 1 No heart, gave up at the first sign of adversity.

Brad Miller - 3 Supposedly he tried to be a good leader in the locker room and he did get back in shape.

Nikola Pekovic - 8 Stepped his game up big time. That's all you can ask for


Anthony Randolph - 4 Showed some signs late.

Luke Ridnour - 8 I think he improved a lot over last year. He was reliable. very solid.

Ricky Rubio - 8 Beyond expectation. Fantastic season had a few slumps.

Anthony Tolliver - 3 Expected a lot more.

Martell Webster - 4 Coming off big surgery so a little slack is given. Still, he was very disappointing.

Derrick Williams - 4 Didn't look like the number 2 player in this draft. Bar was set high and not met.

Jose Barea - 5. Tunnel vision. I suppose it's hard to find the open man when you are as short as he is, but tunnel vision nonetheless. He is a good backup though, so I'm all for keeping him around as a spark plug.

Michael Beasley - 5. He started out fine, but the injuries helped him fall out of favor. I don't really think this coaching staff wanted to give him a chance, but they needed to keep his value up for the trade deadline. Beasley couldn't even raise trade stock, so after that he became useless.

Wayne Ellington - 6. He needs to work on his consistency. If his minutes weren't jerked around because of the injuries, he may have been able to sort out a decent role for himself on this team. I'm not expecting a breakout performance for a late 1st round pick, so that considered he doesn't really ever disappoint me.

Wesley Johnson - 5. I'm a Wes believer. He doesn't seem to have low BBIQ, but there seems to be something missing in his drive/willingness/confidence dept. If he was able to do anything on offense (shoot better, get to the line, dribble) I'd rank him a 7.

Malcolm Lee - 4. I'm thinking he'd be just as invisible as a Wes Johnson type if he wasn't a PG and wasn't required to have the ball in his hands. Given that he hasn't had a real training camp, the jury is still out on him. I think he'll improve and could be an above average 3rd string combo guard.

Kevin Love - 10. I'm not saying Love had a perfect season, but he did so much to help this team win I can't say he doesn't deserve a 10.

Darko Milicic - 2. He did his Darko thing until Pek took his spot, and then he sulked like he always does. If we are taking into account how much $$$ we can save by amnestying him, his ranking goes way up.

Brad Miller - 5. He was a veteran presence to a team that really needed them. He didn't go out and get 20-10-5, but I don't think anyone was expecting him to.

Nikola Pekovic - 9. The beast was unleashed. The greatest part is that he didn't get much publicity this year, so maybe his skills will go unnoticed a bit next year as well and he can continue to bulldoze.

Anthony Randolph - 3. Never really expected him to do much when Adelman became coach. I hope he signs to a team that will actually give him a chance next year. Looking at his skill-set, there is nothing stopping him from at least being a Lamar Odom clone.

Luke Ridnour - 6 Was forced to be our starting SG as he was the only decent option, and did okay considering. I also like how his "shoot first and ask questions later" mentality seemed to subside a bit as the year wore on.

Ricky Rubio - 9. I don't think you can expect much more from a rookie. He is a game changer. The only reason he doesn't get a 10 is because of his shooting slump and hitting that rookie wall.

Anthony Tolliver - 1. This guy is 12th man fodder.

Martell Webster - 4. I didn't realize how stupid and careless he can be until this year. He just makes too many dumb plays for my liking. He seems to phone it in, and gets into his head too much.

Derrick Williams - 4. This would've been much higher if he actually produced something after Ricky and Love went down. It was inexcusable that he didn't do better once his playing time dramatically increased. I guess that might be difference Rubio made, and it might be a rookie wall, but he still should've made better lemonade with those lemons he was given.

I think me and you are the only guy's who like Wes anymore.

6.4 / 2.6 rebounds / 1 assist / .59 steals / .97 blocks on %.418 / %.407(2.7 attempts) / 80 in 23 minutes post-all star. Sure he's a bust from the #4 pick, but I still have hope he can turn into a d / 3 with some nice highlights on the break for us, and wouldn't be terribly upset if he was still here next year.

you have to admit wes was beyond terrible this year, i mean truly vomit inducing disgusting. i wouldn't be upset if he were here next year, i think he has a chance to improve and be a helpful player, but i'll be beyond pissed if he is in the conversation to be starting if he's at hs current form. wes has 0 heart , is way to casual and is mentally weak. i have 0 doubt that wes was in that group that jj complained about...too much smiling and laughing from wes on the court and bench. i want to see a bernard king come out in wes next season and for him to have some faith and belief in himself and his ability. if he could do this he could become a helpful player for us, but i doubt he ever will.

i was in that wes believer club until about mid season, just go and check the stat predctions for this year if you don't believe me . he has all the physical ability in the world and you could just see the potential in him to be that shawn marion sort of player...unfortunately i think he has the darko gene.

Lol yeah, I agree. This season was a big-time dissapointment after he was supposed to be working with Kobe on his handle all summer. I just like his potential to be a good help defender / 3 point shooter and a beast athlete.

I don't think Wes is mentally weak. Maybe from a basketball standpoint he is on the floor, but he doesn't seem like some sensitive head-case type. I think his attitude is just far too aloof to be considered anything more than an athletic prospect right now.
