Is anybody else shocked that the Wolves aren't winning with Thibs?

[mastermind]

they looked better under Sam Mitchell last year

nah I'm not Wiggins sucks

 

[AVXL]

Most of us non casuals told y'all it was unrealistic to expect a 20 win team to jump from 20 something wins to playoff contender. But this happens every year, y'all overhype a team that's not ready and we up the threads and y'all look foolish. Wolves need some vets who are totally bought in to Thibs system to make it work up there

i mean this was just a lottery team...



how yall expecting them to be in the playoffs so soon.


LeBron James Cavs missed the playoffs (in the lowly east) in his first two seasons.


chill out

 

[Tunez]

Rubio still there

The usual pattern with young teams is that they will start improving in the second half of the season before they have a good year end to end.

Hopefully Dunn can develop into the PG they need so they can throw Rubio to the bushes

That Charlie from its always sunny looking scrub basically gives the other team a power play when he's on the floor @Malta @tremonthustler1 @Dak_Brehscott

Im surprised...but obviously the younger players aint respondin to his style of coaching. Maybe they need some vets

Veteran leadership is not helping the Sixers, even with Embiid.

Veteran leadership like a Jason Richardson that won't point the needle to more wins but improve locker room culture sure, Idon't think winning games at this point can turn around this roster. The wolves needs another top pick, and if Josh Jackson is available at SF they should select him. At least with him on the wolves we can finally see who's better at SG, Lavine or Wiggins.

I thought he did everything well except for scoring?

Look at his shot chart. It's so bad that you can legit just ignore him when he's on the floor. Everywhere was red except long twos from the left side last I looked. Worst career shooting percentage in league history. Basically defenses treat him like the Mavericks treated Mike Bibby and Joel Anthony in the 2011 finals, yet this hack still gets minutes

 

[JP_614]

That defense man idk how the hell somebody told them not to guard the rim last night that's common sense basketball

But I just think they struggle defensively I like deing I think he can anchor

Also doesn't help Rubio doesn't bring anything offensively he needs to be to at least hit a open 3 pointer

 

[Figdcotton]

no because he keeps playing Scrubio

Exactly.. If he went all in with Dunn and traded Rubio for a legit 6th man to pair with shabazz and cole Aldrich they would be a legit 8 deep and have cap space to make a big splash next off season and be a1.. But nope Rubio still stinking it up

Then isn't it an indictment on Dunn if he can't push out Rubio for the starting spot. Coming out of the draft as a 22-year-old senior he was billed as nba ready?
