Wolves offseason outlook.

[guest81]

That should scare the shit out of any wolves fan. We give away everything of value left on the team other than Ant, and then Giannis suffers a major injury so Ant asks out and we are left with no cap room and no talent to rebuild with.

I read somewhere that Finch was safe because they had two years left on his deal and Arod and Lorre would not be willing to eat that. These are the owners that have doubled their investment in three years and they can't eat 10 mil.

I also found it hilarious that Finch was saying they needed to find a way to get the ball out of Ant's hands more. Shouldn't we have been doing that during the season? Same coach who said after last season that he should have gone deeper into his bench, then tried to justify not doing it by saying every win counts in the tough WC.

Any team who researches the wolves over the last five years would be fools to hire TC. The guy has swung for the fences every year since he arrived with nothing to show for it.

So we are in the midst of the most successful era in franchise history and Connelly has nothing to show for it? Sometimes I wonder if you just enjoy wallowing in a constant state of dissatisfaction about the Wolves, Rudy, Finch, Connelly, etc. Get a grip! He'd be hired in a heartbeat.

(That's not to say Connelly is above criticism. He's made his fair share of mistakes.)

You want to look at stats like on/off whereas I look at wins/losses. 46 before Connelly, and now 49 four years later with older talent, almost no draft picks for future building, and in cap hell.

Before we lose ANt in the not too distant future, how about trying him in a different system with a different coaching staff. I wouldn't even mind bringing back the same talent. I was looking back at Utah and I wondered why Quin Snyder left the Jazz with two years left on his deal. Who does that? Did he come to the realization that he could not make it work with Rudy and Mitchell? Was he not on the same page as the front office?

They have all their young players under deals. They're under the second apron. They have no bad contracts. How are they in cap hell?

Do you really believe that both Randle and Rudy are on tradable contracts without having to sweeten the deals. We have Jaden, Ant and Naz under deals, but who else? We don't have any significant room to sign a FA other than on the mle and that might be next to nothing if they re-sign Ayo (which will likely be another overpaid deal with a player option).

And how did we do in the playoffs in that 46-win season???

(and we're not in cap hell btw).

Team wins is the laziest possible analysis

Joan Beringer and Terrence Shannon, Jr. are on reasonable deals so you forgot about them.

And how did we do in the playoffs in that 46-win season???

(and we're not in cap hell btw).

I believe we won the play-in and lost to Memphis in the first round. Could be wrong on our opponent.

If we are not in cap hell I guess we should have an easy time adding talent in the off season. BTW, what did we get NAW last off season?

Joan couldn't even get on the court under Finch, and Shannon didn't exactly light it up either.

I would say easiest, but the only stat that matters in the end!

That includes playoff wins too, right?

Those don't matter
