    Pekovic has been putting up gaudy numbers this month.

    If not Kaman what other big can be had with what the Rockets have to offer:

    Hill, TWill, Thabeet, Flynn, maybe Martin or Scola?

    At some point we have to trade, etc our glut of "role players" and get a balanced team. I abhor the idea of tanking as it goes against everything I believe sports should be about but this barely making the playoffs or being the best team out of the playoffs ain't cutting it. As is getting destroyed inside by any and every team with halfway decent big men. ugghh!

    Lol forget those bigs, we already had one that could pass and defend the post like a champ, Mr. Chuck Hayes. I love Morey and most of his decisions, but prioritizing Nene/Gasol over Chuckwagon was BS.

    Alot of people see that this team is incredibly soft & fragile and we don't have one post defender. Chuck was all of that, and he was arguably our best passer, heck we ran the offense through him. Sac must have been trying to get back at Houston for something to sign him and let him rot on their bench. Morey needs to bring him back next season at all costs.

    Too many lousy fans. Karma is killing us for having worst fans in the NBA.

    Anyone see the Post game interview with McHale? He was not in good mood. I like the way he turn the stats page into a ball and kept bouncing it while talking to the reporters and then he threw it away.

    The Jazz don't have the bigs that the Wolves have. The Jazz bigs like to shoot jumpers down low.

    McHale should play some of the young guys with potential and get some gaudy numbers, too. They are riding pine to the slaughterhouse, while Adelman is making Pekovic look like the white Jeremy Lin.

    this. He's averaging like 22 and twelve over his last 4, 15 and 10 ( on 60% shooting )as a starter. That's ****ing solid.

    You're going to get your head taken off for saying Adelman has anything to do with the Wolves success.

    They won't need to shoot jumpers when they can just put up 2 footers all night.
