* One little tidbit about Timberwolves new assistant coach Bill Bayno.
As I mentioned in last week's post, he is a recovering alcoholic who also had a kind of obsession-compulsive disorder develop when he was a head coach. He seems to be very up-front about his addiction and past troubles and I hear one of the reasons the Blazers originally hired him in 2005 was to work with Zach Randolph and his issues.
Could there be some intent in helping Michael Beasley blossom despite himself with this hire as well?

Did anyone else think of this guy after reading the article?
