Imagine what the Wolves could be with a talented coach and front office. They could maybe get as far as the second round. Maybe. The West is just so damn loaded atm.

haha no that was actually the "story"....Charlie "Shooter" Walters is one of those old school columns where it's just little disconnected half paragraphs or bullet points with bolded player and team names with news bites and gossip
like Jackie Harvey from the Onion basically...he actually used to use "a little birdy told me" a lot lol

the way he wrote it definitely makes it sound like somebody fucked somebody's gf but i don't think that's what he was going for

That dude is doing 1920s gossip rag reporting. How can I get that job?
― EZ Snappin, Tuesday, 4 September 2018 18:28 (five years ago) link
yeah it's kind of amazing
Walter's is actually their knockoff version of Sid Hartman from the StarTribune who is...I shit you not....98 years old and still working!
http://m.startribune.com/index.php/sid-s-jottings/492268591/
he covered the first Super Bowl, was a part owner of the Mpls Lakers, and started working for the Minneapolis Star as a goddamn NEWSIE
― The Desus & Mero Chain (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 4 September 2018 19:11 (five years ago) link
so his job might be up soon?
Sweet!

great hire
― ciderpress, Wednesday, 5 September 2018 16:40 (five years ago) link
it seemed so perfect on paper... young team with solid offensive players needs to find defensive identity. then thibs just decided he hates his young players and wants to give a team that was solid 7 years ago one last joy ride. kinda surprised he doesnt have hinrich on the coaching squad too.

f the coaching staff brining him in to play

someone should let him know that noah, korver, omer asik, and cj watson are all still playing and probably available!
― call all destroyer, Wednesday, 5 September 2018 17:22 (five years ago) link
if the knicks waive noah he will be on the wolves bet

Thibs is channeling John Belushi in Blues Brothers: "We're putting the band back together."

honestly i'm still confused about what happened with deng. his last year w/ the heat it was like "the heat have unlocked a new phase of luol deng's career by playing him as a small ball 4" and then the lakers signed him and all of a sudden he was not even playable on one of the worst teams in the NBA?
― J0rdan S., Thursday, 6 September 2018 13:21 (five years ago) link
apparently his benching coincided directly with magic and rob taking over and the change in direction they orchestrated. he probably still has a bit in the tank but i don't trust minnesota to use him correctly.

RWB got his knee scoped. getting re-evaluated in 4 weeks. worry about that guys knees
― Machine Gunk Jelly (Spottie), Wednesday, 12 September 2018 18:44 (five years ago) link
I had to think a bit who the hell RWB was. I've never seen that as a nickname or abbreviation. Always see Russ.
― EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 12 September 2018 19:53 (five years ago) link
search posts for 'rwb' in i love hoops and there's hundreds of results. might be just us tho
― Machine Gunk Jelly (Spottie), Wednesday, 12 September 2018 20:07 (five years ago) link
Might be me. I hate abbreviations and shit nicknames like LBJ or RWB or CP3 etc. LBJ is Lyndon Baines Johnson, not LeBron Raymone James.
― EZ Snappin, Wednesday, 12 September 2018 20:12 (five years ago) link
i think cp3 is the only current player i use that for, i don't like it otherwise

The worst is D Wade, because there are so many other Wade's we'd confuse him with.
