Is Shabazz Muhammad Lowkey Repeating Austin River's Rookie Year

[TheLukieBaby]

Unable to play, to be fair I think he is "injuried", but this is coming from the one of the top recruits who was supposed to be a force in the tourney last year. The southpaw who was compared to James Harden is now losing minutes to Corey Brewer, a quality vet, but really a top pick should not be that bad right?

You could tell dude was awful just by his demeanor and his play in college. Can you envision him in 5 years leading a team or being a top 3 option?

Nope, he is just sad. In two years, he will be out of the league in five years broke.

What's funny is I remember a lot of Coli dudes saying he wouldn't beast in the league....at least not right away

 

[954UAlreadyknow]

is he even playing?

I think Tremont said something about the coach and GM not liking him

nah, he's not getting any minutes. Him and Derrick Williams just got on the wrong team with the wrong coach. You can tell Adelman hates watching Shabazz play even in those blowout minutes because dude is desperate to get that first NBA bucket. Derrick Williams is getting the bigger shaft since he's much more talented than his minutes say, but I doubt Shabazz gets a chance here in Minnesota. Especially if Adelman is the coach going forward.

He's on his Don Nelson steez. fukk a rookie

So dumb of a coach to instead of develop a team, divide a team....

Pretty much.

No handles. Outside shot was looking at times. All that athleticism, yet no motor to speak of???

Not to mention the Attitude problems?

Still don't get why the timberwolves traded for him in the draft... Terrible pick all around.

I guess so, because much like Austin rivers, I completely forgot about shabazz Muhammad until this thread.

I was reminded of Austin river's existence last week.

no everyone knew austin rivers game wouldnt translate to the nba. with shabazz, it's just a matter of cracking adelman's rotation. the talent is there. just needs some fine tuning

 

[Sensitive Blake Griffin]

pick a college based on how many shots you get to chuck, brehs.

be a self-centered a$$hole, brehs.

get mad when your teammate hits the game winning shot instead of you, brehs.

lie about your age, brehs.

 

[Da_Eggman]

This is a good example why the nba needs a legit minor leagues

 

[No..Money..Mo..Problems]

Playing for Adelman sucks but the signs where there no handles, suspect jumper and a me, me and some more me attitude. If he puts in the work I can see him lasting 5-10 yrs as a journey man.

 

[T.he I.nformant]

He's a 30-year-old NBA rookie what did you expect?

 

[kash10003]

no, he hasn't played at all.
