Was it appropiate 4 Kevin Love to call out BENCH?

[quincy33 [enjin:7934959]]

If i recall earlier in the year it was the starters aka THE FIRST UNIT playing like crap getting blown out early in games but i never heard any player from the bench calling out them for their crappy play.

I didnt hear a word from adelman about this? should of this even been said? did adelman even care or like it?


kinda weird how love gets a free pass with these comments.

Umm, sorry to burst your bubble, but the starters have been great all year long. I think there was maybe one or two games where they had trouble, and the bench actually got us back in the game. Other than that, Kevin Love and our starters have been pretty damn good. Our bench has a good case for worst in the NBA and needs some help. Also, if you missed out, just recently Barea talked about how the bench has been non-existent this year. They know they aren't pulling their weight. It's as obvious as it gets. 5 points last game from the entire bench, but it was all from JJ? That's amazingly bad.

Love doesn't get a free pass. He gets his fair share of criticism when the time calls for it. The thing is, though, Love's been brilliant all year. Even his "struggle games" are better than 99% of the PFs in the league. He's a superstar and top-five player in the game today. Everyone wants him to be a leader. He's being one by holding everyone responsible for their actions. Could it be argued that he should fake it til he makes it when talking to the press? Sure, but I don't see anything wrong with a word he's said all year.

Was it appropriate? Two words: Fuck Yes.

well when you trade the best bench scorer on the team for a non existent scorer what do you expect? d-will was all the bench had.

D-Will wasn't producing much either. At least the bench showed signs of life for a couple weeks with Mbah a Moute giving productive minutes. Also wouldn't call D-Will the best bench scorer.

i call bs on that d-will wasnt producing much bc he got hurt and never got any mins after he got hurt bc the coach held a grudge against him. but like it or not he was the best bench offensive weapon we had.

You're in a fun fantasy land aren't you? Where clouds are gigantic marshmallows and the sun is one big lemon drop.

I was a huge supporter of D-Will pre-season. Hell, I thought he'd even be able to be our starting SF. That's how much faith I had in him. Never seen a player with as much talent/athleticism/potential as him be so out of it, though. Also, what injury? He's been one of the healthiest players we've had since he got here. He had plenty of playing time to establish value. Did he ever play good consistently? Not even close, especially this year when he was still here. The OKC blowout game was the best I saw from him and those were meaningless minutes.

just see it how i see it & yeah he did miss time this year. i believe it was a bad back but anyways yeah barea aint got squat to work with on the 2nd unit so its hard for me to blame him when he's triple teamed night in night out. JUST SAYING!

Oh, Barea's getting triple teamed? I missed that. See, I always thought it was his poor shot selection and ability to dribble into pressure constantly that were his problems. Now I know that it's because he's being triple teamed. It all makes sense now.

yeah its not rocket science for the opposing teams head coach when your basically playing 1 on 5 when the 2nd unit comes in. barea vs. their 5 yeah id triple team him 2.
