Man, you are the worst basketball mind in the history of hoops.

Rubio definitely needed to sit, but he is the best pure point guard on this team by a wide margin. Just because the kid craps gold nuggets doesn't mean he isn't human. He's hitting a rough patch. He'll be back.

I hope Rubio does come out of his funk. As much as he controls the flow of the offense, his TO's and seconds per possession, doesn't leave much room to keep his SG involved. Legs get stiff, back tightens and when you do see the ball it's a surprise. Some of Ridnour's falloff I'm sure is related to the family issues he's been tending to. But Rubio has got to do a better job keeping Wes & Luke involved in their areas of strength.
Haha, that's a funny joke.
Question: "Hey Antoine Walker, why do you shoot so many 3's?"

Answer: "Because there are no 4's."

Didn't watch the game but looks like it was a sweet win for us. Nice, we needed that.

Even nicer was the fact that tonight the Wolves' three primary ball handlers totaled 20 assists against only 4 TOs.

very surprising...

Bad game by Bizzmack Roundhouse. Again, Not saying he's Dennis Rodman, but surely he'll be a poor man's Worm. He has had some games, for sure. He's 19!! he's been playing organized ball for what, 7 months (exaggeration).

Wait till we play them in their house...I'll be in attendance and I'll ask him to show some of that Joe Smith I saw a few weeks back! :woohoo:

seriously College Wolf..........Wes can be a contributor as a slasher and fast breaks....not so much in the half court slower pace. I believe Rubio can achieve more for the team as a whole and take some pressure off himself by leaning on Ridnour a bit more.

Ricky is 4th in the NBA in assists, 14th in Assist/Turnover ratio, and 1st in steals. AS A ROOKIE.

You are so fail.

So you want Ricky to play to Wes' strengths then you say Wes is best in a transition game...which is what Ricky plays...and how Wes has been scoring...in transition...off of passes from Ricard.

Until Wes can prove he can hit open jumpers at least every now and then I'd relegate him to garbage buckets and transition. half court slow down is not his strength.

That's a nice joke. How can some one who can't dribble, slash to the basket? In 28 games Wes has gone to the line 19 times, that's .6 times a game, those are some horrible slashing statistics. Rubio average 3.8 free throws per game.

Most good teams are half court teams. You can't run down the court every time just for Wes Johnson's sake. Wes sucks, PERIOD.

I am College Wolf, a life-long Minnesota Timberwolves fan. And yet I still approve of this message.
