    Well, you can say it, and even believe it. Adelman's record suggests that he is a much more proven coach, and with this gang of players they sure looked a lot more cohesive last year than this.

    Even a few more wins would have taken us from 9th to 4th. C'mon, the roster is not THAT bad but you see KMart and Scola has clearly regressed this year and I think Mchale is part of the problem. With improved Lowry and addition of Chandler Parsons and Dalembert, we are supposed to make the playoff this year. On the other hand, I am pretty sure Wolves would not be contending for the playoff if they were still stuck with Mchale. Adelman is a HOF coach and there is no way he would have done worse.

    Even if we switched coaches i still expect them to have a better record than us. I'd take their lineup over ours any day. We can't even land Kevin Love alone even of we offered our starters.

    I would take their lineup over ours too. But I don't think they would have a better record than us should we switched coaches. The Wolves had Kevin Love last year and they sucked at the bottom of the league.

    I mean we lost these kind of games with Adelman too.

    Same team, same results.

    We basically have the same lineup last season without a disgruntled Scola and Martin to boot. Did we make the playoffs with Adelman?

    The good = Chandler Parsons

    The Bad = Kyle Lowry/Luis Scola

    The Ugly = Kevin Martin

    We barely missed the playoff last year. Like I said, with improved Lowry, Dalembert and Parsons, I think we would have been around 5-6 seed with Adelman this year. Just my two cents.

    Like I said, Rubio and Derrick Wiliams definitely help, but Adelman just help as much. Saying Mchale would have achieved the same record with the Wolves this year is just ridiculous.

    Did I say anything about Mchale in Minnisota? No. I said that This roster is more to blame with the the record than the coach. That is what I'm saying. People calling for McHale's head because of our losing streak are forgetting that we were the same team for the most part last year so assuming he would have us in the 4 th spot is ludicrous.

    LOL he wants adelman back just because the Wolves overtook is today. I still think Adelman is a better coach than Mchale but K-Mac is not doing so bad at all. We basically have the same lineup as last season and we're currently in 9th place in the west. Exactly where we finished with Adelman calling the shots last year am i right?

    He's just truing to argue for the aake of arguing when he has already clearly lost the argument.

    The point is the players are the majority of the problem, not the coach.

    Thankfully, I missed watching this game today.

    The trade deadline can't arrive soon enough. I think it might be affecting our players.

    Compare Martin and Scola's averages from last season. Martin especially. Now aren't you even surprised we're in the same position when your leading scorer has sucked all season? If martin and scola played this way last seaskn with adelman, we wouldn't be close to 9th place, let alone being in playoff contention.

    Adelman has a winning record and is the better coach right now, yes. But Kevin Mchale has done a pretty decent job given some of our players having issues all season.
