Wow, that's some tough stuff...

"Easily the least qualified GM to be hired in the NBA in the last decade"
"If Minnesota gets good players it will be by luck and not design"

What I find fascinating is that he doesn't say which player we should draft in HIS opinion, because this leaves him free to critisize whomever we do pick. "No, they should have picked Cousins because of his upside" if we draft Johnson and "What were they thinking drafting Cousins who doesn't fill a position of need and has character issues".

Looking forward to this in 3 days time!

I thought Adrian Wojnarowski was well known for being an idiot?
Does it matter what he thinks? If he thinks?

I just checked, if you type "Adrian Wojnarowski idiot" into Google you get 3040 hits...

This was fun for a while, but where exactly do people like this get off? The guy looks like he's just throwing ish at the walls to get something to stick and doesn't have any idea what he's talking about. Aren't you meant to get fired if you don't know what you're doing? If a miner turns up on his first day and doesn't know how to use a shovel, they don't throw more money at him and put his face on a video.

I look forward to the day when guys like Woj leave Minnesota with a sore ass and some painful memories courtesy of the Kahn man.

Well, if that's the criteria you want to use, "David Kahn Idiot" returns 80,800.

I hope you're right, and soon too. I feel Kahn could just as easily knock one out of the park as he could royally screw a transaction up. I will believe in the guy when I see Rubio in a Wolves uni.

Quite a few other nba journo's have said Kahn is one of the hardest working gm's over the off-season. This guy is an ass. He picks on the easy target without evidence to back up his claims. Especially with his comments about Rubio.

If you search "sasha is the best" .. returns 10.900.000 results.

Clearly sounds like a personal conflict ... remember, Kahn has a history with sports media.

The dude is an idiot.

Obviously Kahn is an unqualified twit, everyone knows how stupid and useless sports "journalists" are, right Wojo?

Yeah, in her "areas" of competency, she's very skilled.

Yeah, he really didn't have any real reasons for his thoughts, he pretty much just ripped on him for no reason. I'm not saying Kahn will be brilliant, but wow, that was kinda sad, cause he clearly has some kind of agenda against him. And saying it'll be luck if he gets good players pretty much puts him in zero position to be wrong cause he'll just fall back on that. Weak stuff.

Yup. I liked his statement too about how Kahn was the least-qualified GM hired in years. Was Wojo up for this job? I mean, I can understand some of Bill Simmons' rancor (since he wanted the Wolves GM job)...
