I brought up his similar comments during the State fair interview and many people said he is not dissing Love. Thad's message seems pretty consistent that he considers Love a great stat guy but that the Wolves didn't win with him, and that Thad will bring a more well rounded game. I really don't care whether or not he really is dissing Love, but I do believe he has to be getting his ideas from somewhere. I really wonder how management, coaches and players have expressed there feelings about Love's qualities to Thad.

Either way I really love this kid so far and really like how he is handling this situation. He certainly seems like he is trying to put himself right out there as a fan favorite and he isn't even guaranteed beyond this year. Pretty cool. I hope his play on the floor matches his personality.

And this from Thad yesterday...

Thad Young today after practice: "I think we have a chance to do something special." #TwolvesCamp

This one also:

"I've been willing to step in and take on the leadership role and help the young guys and help this organization get back to the playoffs. I remember the other day Glen Taylor said thanks to me for talking to his fans. I said, 'No. These are our fans. We're one big family now.' I'm part of the organization and I'm ready to go to war with these guys each and everyday."

Love Thad. Even if he ends up playing ok for us. I believe his heart is fully in this.

I hate Thad. I'd much rather have that low-first rounder we traded away instead of him. What the hell was Flip thinking?
