is he seems to really lack creativity. The idea that we need to give up on a Love/Jefferson front-court when they were starting to jell along with the team before Al’s Injury. I’ve already gone off as to why I don’t like a Jefferson/Thabeet Front-Court at all. But the idea that their are these set formulas that the Wolves can’t have with a Love/Jefferson front-court is silly. The Rockets last year wihout Yao had a long, long winning steak despite lacking size. They outexectued everyone and kept competive on the boards. I see this taking place with Love and Al at a higher level- but Kahn needs to stick to some sort of traditional Front-Court Formula.

If he also said Love’s a 4th Option while Jefferson is a 2nd option. This seems to be a statement that has a tremendous misunderstanding of Value on a Basketball Court. Love’s nearly 4 years younger that Jefferson but is a better rebounder, better defender, better passer, and gets to the line at a much greater rate. This says nothing about Love’s additional upside to show skills as a finisher and shooter like he had at UCLA.

The 4th option thing seems to be a result of one of his breakfast chat participants posting what he heard, but I have yet to see that corroborated by others who attended one of his chats. My mistake if it has been corroborated, but it seems to stem from one post that someone made on another site.

The optimist in me says that what Kahn is doing is exploring and discussing every single angle and potential deal out there to improve the team. That doesn’t mean they will go through or he’ll pull the trigger. What we did hear first hand is that he and his staff would not be outworked or outprepared. I’m hoping that what we’re witnessing here is every stone being turned, every angle explored, every deal discussed. No one should be untouchable on a 24 win team and all deals should be explored and vetted. That being said, my guess is he’s got a Love-Jefferson bias and it would be tough to pry one of those guys loose.

All he confirmed was…he and McHale talked tonight…so clearly that tweet speaks for itself.

After reading Love’s tweet, who do you think are some logical choices to coach this team. I guess we got to think about whether of not Glen wants to pay anyone or not too…

some questions:

Do they prefer an experienced coach or a younger assistant? Will Glen Taylor pay for a higher priced guy, and would that guy actually take this job? I’m not a huge fan of recycling guys, generally. Maybe Jeff van Gundy?

Does Kahn have a style he wants that will affect the coaching hire?

I wonder how much this process and the resultant coaching hire will tell us about the direction of the organization.

This came up in the media breakfast on Monday…With his lawyer background, he did dance around the topic, but said…he def. likes the way Orlando plays….it’s obvious though, the Wolves would need to add multiple shooters to play that style…thinks D’Antoni’s style can win a title, so disagrees with many in that respect…
Add Curry…Convince yourself that Miller’s year last year was a mirage…find a free agent shooter….maybe Orlandoesque is the way they will attempt to go.
