You should look up the definition of "rumor" and come back to me. Also, I specifically noted that it wasn't validated information at the time, but here we are hours later and it appears that individual had a very real source(s) close to the situation -- much closer than anyone here. And that's why I shared it. Once again, thanks for being my number one fan. :)


Dude, just say this is a tweet I read and site your source and then the reader can determine whether or not its credible. Why be so vague? I suspect you want to appear more dialed in than you really are.

Considering that twitter account had this story back in July... he might have 650 followers by midnight.


Per Shams

Rosas was having consensual sex with a co-worker. What was a reason to his firing.

So cam was right

Well, the sun doesn't shine on the same dog's ass every day. There is a first for everything :)

You should have taken the L quietly on this one. And I include sources when they're credible or legitimate -- Woj, Shams, Stein, Krawczynski, etc. If the rumor or take is from a very sketchy source or an outlet that I don't feel confident in, then I feel no need to include anything additional other than a disclaimer that what I shared might be bullshit, which is what I did here. It turns out that this person was actually somewhat clued in. That's pretty much the end of it.

Seriously, get over yourself. If we are talking Ls, I think you are the king of that on this board.

So at the end of the day

- didn't win enough

- new owners

- was having an affair with a co-worker

- was a dick behind the scenes

This is the most wolves thing ever. Will miss he eye for under the radar talent but hopefully Gupta was the key.

Flip Saunders' second stint in Minnesota is far worse than the several years Gersson Rosas just had, in my opinion. That's maybe a conversation for another time, but I've talked about those moves at length on here at one point or another. Trading a first-round pick for Adreian Payne... Trading a young Thaddeus Young for an old Kevin Garnett... severely overpaying Nikola Pekovic... trading down for Shabazz Muhammad while missing out on C.J. McCollum and Giannis Antetokounmpo... bad.


Cam to clarify this isn't just about basketball. I think what Rosas did was pretty shitty especially for what he claimed he was. People make mistakes but damn I did not see this coming.

McHale would be up there if you separated his last few years from having some legit success early on.


I can understand that. I guess it depends on what you feel is more egregious -- inappropriate workplace relationships or inauspicious nepotism. I'm not a fan of either, obviously.


Like I said it was dislike not just performance based. Flip in general is a guy that I think is mostly pretty likable despite some legit failures. I actually like McHale too to some extent but part of that is because I really enjoyed watching him as a basketball player also. Like I said the Wolves have had a lot of bad GMs...

I hate to say it, but if the first item on your list was the opposite, the other 3 might not have mattered as much.

Also how bad is Glen Taylor. How do you fire Thibs because he is hard to work with. Then end up hiring a similar toxic personality and a person who had an affair on his wife at the office.

Damn Glen sucks
