Too Convenient....
Everyone has said we need to see this entire team together before we can make a judgment on Rosas and the roster. Essentially, the heat is on and this better work. It's a little convenient that as soon as we get one of the quote unquote core players back another one goes down. If I'm being honest, I would not doubt in the least that this is Rosas figuring out a way to buy time to protect his job. Is this a stretch, absolutely. but, if we go into the off season being told that we just need to wait until everyone's healthy and can play together before we make any judgments it's a pretty easy cop out.

Re: Too Convenient....
An MRI revealed a grade 3 hamstring injury. If you look it up, grade 3 is the most severe. It takes months to heal and often requires surgery. The idea that he is out only four to six weeks is laughable.
Unless he faked the MRI and Dlo had a surgery that was simply unnecessary, and KAT faked having Covid or dislocating his wrist, or Nowell faked getting rolled up, or ect... I don’t know what the fu** your talking about. Rosas doesn’t have that much power over these guys to make them get hurt. If your implying the injuries are fake, I think it is far more likely you are a conspiracy theorist than an NBA fan.

Whatever at least we finally get to see KAT and Edwards play with DLo long overdue.

No, I am a Wolves fan. And I came right out and said it was a stretch. But it's real convenient isn't it? I'm not doubting Kat injury, that was early enough in the year. I believe DLo surgery was one that could wait, but elected not too. All I know is that there is no excuse for this mess to not be fixed one way or the other this summer. Of course, blind a** homers see what they want...right bud?

Think through your own statement. You would rather Dlo wait on the surgery in a dead season and play injured. If the injury was slowing him down and making him look worse than he is, what possible benefit do the wolves get from keeping him injured until the offseason. Better to get him healthy and use what’s left of the season to work on his game with KAT. As for Beasley, is the MRI fake or the entire injury, your conspiracy theory wasn’t clear. As for firing a GM before his team gets a chance to play together, GSW should definitely fire their GM right. It’s totally his fault that all his stars were hurt last year and that without Klay they are not a playoff team. Likewise the Nets GM should be fired for signing Durant when he was hurt. They paid a lot of money to barely make the playoffs last year. It’s totally his fault that Durant was hurt and it never pays to wait for players to be healthy before judging coaches, GMs, or POBOs, right?

Definitely a stretch as was noted in the OP.

I do have a few...I usually put them on when people start talking about..."just wait until we are healthy, you will see"...or, "Kat and DLo are good enough to get us to playoffs"...you know, the "glass has to be full or you aren't a fan" type.
I said it was a stretch, but what are the odds...ope..this one is coming back, let's sit this one down ..ope, now it's this one's turn...ope...only a couple weeks left, maybe we can try this one now...

Immeasurably low.
The flaw in this argument is the assumption that if the these guys played together we would still lose. I believe a healthy team that got 20 games together to build chemistry under Finch would be competitive next season. Especially if we add some size in the offseason. By not having those games with a fully healthy starting 5 we are actually hurting our chances for next season. Rosas true judgment will come next season. There is simply no benefit to Rosas for Beasley to be out. Moreover, you all are advocating that he faked an injury and that the wolves faked the imaging results from the MRI. To me that just seems silly.

A very big call to insinuate Rosas is doctoring injuries to buy himself time to work it out..
A cop out would be Rosas not owning up to butchering the Culver trade. He needs to come out at the end of the season and put his hand up and say that he f****d it up.

Thanks for the update even though it's terrible news. Grade 3 is bad. I popped mine years ago and it was grade 3 but not the worst grade 3. It took me almost 2 months to recover.
Some people love these Rosas conspiracy theories. They are just that. Rosas is doing the best job he can. I like what he has done overall. It's always easy to criticize.
The job Finch has done is nothing short of phenomenal. We are 180 degrees a different team from 2 months ago. Great, great, hire by Rosas. It took balls to go outside the organization. Thank god they did.

Re: Too Convenient....
Dang,some of you all get your knickers in a bind pretty easily. A post that was meant to essentially mock an unbelievable coincidence as possibly being the work of a mastermind sure has you riled up.
Do I think people faked injuries, not at all. Do I think people may have been sat out longer, or brought back slower than necessary....seems like it. I hadn't thought this out when initially posted because I didn't think people would lose their ever loving minds over an unlikely , but humorous scenario. Season is lost, team is in shambles,roster is unbalanced, key pieces may not fit together...am I looking for a conspiracy theory, no, I am trying to find something to laugh at...and Rosas covering his rear end does. It's all part of his master plan to go worst to first next year...but stay tuned, and if he is fired you will never know...good grief

Wolves don’t need Beasley to hurt his value anymore, he looked off since he came back from the suspension. I don’t expect Beasley to be on the team next season anyway. Rosas will trade him for front court help and draft Jalen Green to replace him.
