Re: Game 22 Thread: MIN vs MIL

Corey Brewer needs some serious help. Can we get a guy who improved his shooting from 36% to 41%? I don't think he's ready for a Hoiberg or Kerr type.

Also about learning to win, we traded everyone except Walker and he doesn't stick around winning teams long. I don't think the "draft college champs" thing is enough. They're just going to have to be awful and learn what to absolutely avoid, that could make them a 35-win mediocre team like last year and 05-06. Then things can flip fast (04-05 Suns and Sonics, 05-06 Clips, etc.) though that's not assured.

There are also some teams with the cupboard bare that still claw and fight: the 03-04 Hawks after trading Reef and Ratliff, the 03-04 Jazz to some extent, the Sixers last year

The good teams won't win every close game but they'll attack it their way. The Wolves now are like "Umm... let's try this." Foye will figure in and the big draft pick, although brace for no. 3-5 instead of 1 or 2.
