Nope.
On that trade. I don't think anybody thought they'd actually be worse with Gobert but I don't think ANYBODY who watched them was happy with Pat Bev being sent away. Or Vandy.
Why would a run and gun team want another SLOW footed center? Tim Connelly should be immediately fired! Why can't the wolves ever find a decent GM? The addition of Slo-mo would have been great with the team we had last year, but the big headed new GM thought he had to make a big slash instead he screwed this team for ann additional decade. 40 million to ruin a team within weeks of his hiring. The new owner are also idiots!
Don't be surprised if they are blown out by 40 tonight!
Dillon Brooks and Desmond Bane are both very capable of defending McDaniels.. Dillon Brooks is more of a negative on offense than anything over his career due to poor shooting splits. Widely regarded as a great perimeter defender. I am sure Memphis will have no problem putting Ja on DLo, his shooting splits are awful, and it's not like he can take advantage of anyone with speed. We need Ant to play to his potential if we want any chance of winning, he was the reason Minnesota had a chance in the playoffs, along with a great gameplan to limit Ja.
If Finch wants to be fired, he can keep playing Dlo. Grizz will beat us. I hope we lose so we can get the changes needed. Better now than waiting until mid season.
