Do you agree tanking is best for the Wolves?

Do you agree with tanking this season or not?

[TAFKASP]

Yes! If they're tanking then they're a success, if they just suck, they suck.

[WildWolf2813]

They're not tanking.


Whether they pick first or 60th, they have to get the right players and develop them.

At this point they have to improve the roster by almost any means necessary while keeping Towns. Hopefully Rosas continues to work the trade market to acquire more assets and they start using the more talented young guys in all sorts of combos to see who fits/shows development and who doesn't and not worrying about how many wins they end up with.

Rosas said we are not focusing on winning. What does that mean to you? They can't actually say, yeah we are trying to lose. But you know for damn sure that sends a message to the team that this year is meaningless.

Then you have players being out for weeks on end for the flu or turf toe (months).

When everything points to a tank, I believe it. Especially when Rosas says we are not concerned with wins.

[thedoper]

I dont think tanking is good.

[Porckchop]

would we be able to tell the difference is the question.

I voted no.The 10-8 and 7th seed start was great for the development of the team. Towns and wiggins gaining respect around the league and proving they can lead a winning team was important. Now were back as the joke of the league that gets no respect.

Now, I understand that teams started to realize that we have no shooters. They started packing the lane to adjust to wiggins rim attacks and both wig and towns got hurt and miss time. But I did hope that rosas would have made some moves that got us the pieces needed to be competitive. I also wish they would be more flexible with the 1 big lineup by playing big half the game. Instead, rosas made it clear that winning is not the priority this season. Implementing the system is the top priority but more than 2/3 of the guys we play most likely has no future with the team. So what the hell? The lottery was adjusted so that it decreases the chances of landing the top picks by tanking teams and we are tanking anyways in a weak draft.

The best lineup we can put out there now if we are care to win games and still play the system is

Roco/dieng/towns/wig/culver.
Roco is at his best as the hounding and roving wing defender. Culver can guard the more threatening sg or pg while wig takes the less threatening one. Towns and dieng guard who they are more suited depending on matchups.

Commit to point wig now as it gets him to be the most productive but have culver bring the ball down and be the playmaker in some sets. This develops both of them at the same and with our 3 best 3pt shooters (towns, roco,dieng) spreading the floor for both to attack the rim, it opens up the offense more for both wig and culver.

Wiggins and Towns are making max money. I don't see how tanking can be the strategy as long as that is the case. We need actual NBA players next to these 2, otherwise we might as well just move to Seattle if we aren't even gonna try with 2 #1 picks on the team.

I don't think they're tanking. He's just saying they don't care about winning because they can't win. It's like saying you weren't really interested in the girl that broke up with you anyway lol. There's nothing in this draft worth tanking for and ruining your culture over. Taylor went all in on Wiggins a couple years and this is what losing that bet looks like. Bottom line is its a guards league, and the wolves have the worst guard play in the league.
