They signed Jordan Hill too. There must be a trade coming.

Could be. I know Thibbs and his GM are gonna be aggressive getting their roster intact.

nothing, just responding to the Rubio article i didn't see it before yesterday
I understand needing an upgrade there, i just wish they could find a way to make it work with him, i like him

Rubio out indefinitely

time for Dunn to step up !!

Much better
Thibs pep talk got them back on track

More to do with the fact that the Grizzlies stink.

You stink

Dunn is a vice defensively
He had 5 steals last game and has 2 already in the 1st quarter tonight along with 6 assists
And he's staying in front of everyone

Timberwolves about to start the season 1-4. Currently being blown out by the Thunder.

_________________

I think MANY of us recognized that it would take time to change the losing mentality of that organization. When Thibs got here the Bulls had already tasted winning so his job was easier. The Wolves will be fine.

Disagree. He was billed as an instant turnaround guy. The 1-4 record is bad but they have already lost to 4 teams in which they have more talent. 3 of them probably won't make the playoffs. They are being crushed in 3rd quarters not so coincidentally. Teams are making adjustments and absolutely killing them.

_________________

Yea and Thibs will make adjustments too
They'll be fine
While I think Dunn is likely the better option than Rubio, they're still switching starting point guards 2 games into the season too
No concern here

In case you haven't noticed you boy Hoiberg aint doing too hot either despite a roster stocked with veteran talent. The Wolves have been in every game except one while Hoiberg's losing to Derrick Rose and Joakim Noah (at home), who together probably add up to one healthy body and one brain. Wolves got this.

Every game except one?

They lost to the

Grizzlies

Kings

Nuggets

Thunder.


Three of the teams are unlikely to make the playoffs.

The Knicks are better than any of those teams minus the Thunder and they probably will be better than them by season's end. Why we are in the excuse making game Rose and Noah missed an entire training camp.

The Bulls have lost to 3 teams that will make the playoffs with 2 of them predicted by many to be top 4 in the conference.

_________________

Yes they got blown out once and lost by five points or less against everyone else. The west is tougher than the east and the Knicks suck.

Everyone else really wasn't all that good either. Wait til they start playing real teams.

Was there any protest when people were calling for Hoiberg to be fired during the preseason last yr.

Also the fact they have lost to teams that aren't that good should be cause for concern.

Also what exactly does playing better constitute? If Thibs wins less than 35 games it should be viewed as a disappointment by (Thibs philes). That is quite unbecoming for a coach billed as the 2nd best in the league. He also is coaching a talent laden team.

_________________

35 will be a disappointment if everyone is healthy. 500 for a young team with no playoff experience in the vastly superior west is a win. Hoiberg should still be fired - he is Vinny del Negro reincarnated.

This is not the West of years past and the East is much closer than you seem to think. The West has 2 teams that are really good and it's debatable if either is better than Cleveland.

The TWOLVES have already lost to 3 teams that are unlikely to make the playoffs. They are,being manhandled coming out for the 3rd quarter.

They lost to a Grizzlies team with a rookie coach in his first game. They also started 3 guys that will likely be working at their local Steak and Shake in 2 years.
