So, recapping last night’s Wolves action...

 

Wiggy forgot to put on his jersey, played no D, missed more than half his free throws, and alleged that displeased fans were/are s***ty.

 

Not doing yourself a lot of favors, my man.

Biggest blunder Glen Taylor has done:

 

1A: Paying Joe Smith under the table

 

1B: Giving Wiggins a max contract

Because there is still enough time to run down a playoff spot.

 

I guess, but then wouldn't the time to have fired him be during that skid?

 

Don't get me wrong, I'm happy he's gone, it just feels weird to walk into his office after a win and fire him.  Then again, it's the Wolves.

Classic T Wolves head scratching move. If Taylor was thinking about doing this why take so long after the Butler debacle?

 

Or how about during it?  If you don't trust the man's judgment and he was bungling that whole situation....why the hell did you let him help guide it to a conclusion?  We allowed him to help create the Butler mess, decide who we got in a trade, and then fired him a few weeks later?  

 

Ugh.  I'm glad it's finally done, but yeesh.

I guess the best thing of this is that it was done before it became a lingering issue over the organization like the Butler fiasco became.

I still don't regret the Butler trade itself. The alternate option would have been to play it safe and continue to be middling. They took a chance and it didn't work and even then they came out of it with Covington and Saric. The big issues are the extensions where the Wolves essentially found themselves trapped. If you don't keep your own young talent then you have to be able to sign guys on the open market. The other big issue is that he wasn't able to make the Butler thing work as a coach.

I have to vent somewhere. What a absolute joke about the last foul call with only .01 left. If anyone in their right mind doesnt thing that the nba along with the nfl is rigged just watch some of the games. That pos ref is being paid off. I will not EVER bet on another Minnesota team . Such a joke.

 

 

Could of won 9k on a 200 dollar nba parlay bet and the ****ing Wolves were the clincher. Unbelievable. .01 whatever
