Timberwolves I - How to fix the season...

Seriously, this is getting ridiculous. It's really almost unfathomable. How did the team that came two games away from the finals last year fall to .500? It's not like they lost anybody. They returned almost the whole team. Was last year the result of Gary Trent and his patented Pornstache? I hope not, but it's beginning to look that way. They should go out and resign him, just for the love of the Stache!

Cassell is breaking down faster than Hammer on a dope beat. His decline has been staggering. God, he makes Mark Brunell look like he was the iron man in D.C. I can't understand this. Anytime you hear Anthony Carter is going in the game and you're happy, you know your team has problems. At least Cassell doesn't have attitude problems, so he'll be easy to trade.

And don't get me started on Spree. The whole "feed my family" fiasco has put a damper on everything. Is he even tradeable? Can they package him and Kandi together and get anything? I like the idea of trading Kandi, Cassell and Spree for Glove, Headcase Davis and the Artist Formerly Known as Reaf LaFrentz. I'll eat Raef's contract to get rid of the other three. Maybe Glove can learn T-Hud a little D. And Davis can sit at the end of the bench and complain about playing time, as long as he wears his afro.

Worst case scenerio, they need to cut Kandi. Eat the rest of his contract. He's like cancer and is spreading to the rest of the team. They need to lop off the cancerous part before he affects everyone. I feel very strongly about this. If I had a choice between contracting AIDS or having Kandi on my team, I don't know for sure which I'd pick. I know which one I would want to (because I would like to live) but is it really worth living if you have to be around Kandi?

They have the talent and the superstar, they just need to clear out some of the headcases. KG can only do so much. They need someone who can step up and be a second apple, like Wally. If they can get a distributer, they'd be set. And they need to retool the line-ups. Spree, Cassell, Wally and KG can not be in there at the same time. That's too many offensive minded people. Hassell and AC need to be worked more into the rotation, along with Mad Dog. Starting line-up should be Cassell, Hassell, Wally, Mad Dog and KG. When AC comes in for Cassell, Spree can sub for Hassell. They need a balance between O and D that they don't have now.

These are only some of the things they can do to fix the season. Will they do any? Probably not. They are going to have trouble trading anyone and don't have the cojones to dump Kandi. But something has to be done before they fall out of the playoff race (which could happen).
