The Wolves just added Bill Laimbeer to assist Rambis. This is obviously meaningless but the 80's connection is just too extreme not to notice. Glen Taylor goes from being unusually loyal to old Kevin for over a decade then hires the two people he probably hated most during his playing days to replace him... too funny.
The Wolves were my 2nd favorite team the last couple of years, since the Big Al - KG trade, but it's impossible now. I was raised on 80's basketball (and cheeseburgers) -- I just can't root for a team led by Rambis and Laimbeer. Wow, Rambis and Laimbeer... Together. Like two cartoon villains from my childhood teaming up to mentor my favorite offensive PF in the league. Ugh.
