He thinks he is smarter than everyone. I mean the guy thought he could see the future last year in the draft. Cleveland wouldn't trade him, and he decided there was no way they would draft a guard again, so he traded for the pick right after them. And got stung. Now, we are going to hand over a nice pick to the Warriors.

But Ryan does nothing to play to this teams strengths
What are they? I'm genuinely curious
Not saying the roster construction is great. With that said the refusal to ever play 2 bigs to help rebounding and defense is pathetic. We have to help so much on defense because we are giving up so much size. How many times do we legit put Rubio in a PnR where the big legit rolls hard instead of popping, Rubio got Pek paid, let Rubio do l play to his strength. Watch our possessions Edwards stands in the corner. Never run Beasley off multiple off ball screens. Never post up, even if we aren't going to score we make the defense react. Outside of Jmac we never make teams defend downhill. We played DLO at the end of the 1st half off ball and got him moving and it was his best stint off the season.
I'm not saying Wolves will win a shit ton of games without Kat but we aren't even competitive with the system in place. You are the coach, coach to your team not a system
If that two shots he made was DLO's best stint of the season Lord help us.
Of course it isn't like all nba level. Dlo has been trash but in that run he was putting pressure on the defense where the Wizard had to scramble and we had a ton of open shots. It made the wizards rotate and work. Right now in the Wolves system they set a high ball screen the center pops, dlo looks for his midrange jumper. The defense doesn't need to move and they knew Dlo won't attack the rim. At least make the D work

In all fairness, he was 10-11 last game too.
So your point is that we are as pathetic as the Bulls. Awesome.
Yeah, I realized what a moronic point I was making the moment I pushed the button. Thomas F-ing Roberts
Believe it or not, Thomas Bryant is pretty solid. He had a good year last season.
He looks fine. The fact that he is perfect from the field is the problem. It would be nice to hold some bigs below 60% from the field. This has been an issue for years though.

I think Gersson thought DLO was going to be his James Harden. Remember how Gersson was beaming at the presser to introduce DLO last season. I remember Rosas saying with great pride and excitement in his voice, "We didn't just want a PG, we wanted THIS PG" (pointing to DLO).And Gersson obviously thought he saw something in Juancho that almost not other team PBO (probably no other PBO) saw in him.

Somebody has to get run after a performance like this. In order of preference:
1) Rosas
2) DLO
3) Saunders
4) Juancho
5) Entire Franchise

Love Vanderbilt's rebounding, energy and nose fo the ball. But he's really challenged offensively.
