I'm guessing you don't watch Wesley play much. He's been a terrific all-around player and could grow into one of the best role players in the league. His shooting numbers are down because he's playing on a bad team, he's shown flashes of his solid shooting stroke. I don't see what there is to hate about him. Kahn is trying to compile a group of talented young players with maturity and have them grow together for the next few years. I don't think Cousins would have worked out in Minnesota. This is coming from the guy who wanted to rip out Kahn's throat when he picked Wes over Cousins.
I have watched the kid. And I'm mad because as of now, if I had that pick again, Davis, George, Cousins, Monroe, and Patterson would have been much, much better selections over this guy. ..............................................................................what? Beasley's mature? Randolph's mature? Darko's mature? And this is EXACTLY what I'm mad about. Kahn has no strategy whatsoever - he's just doing what Morey did with T-Will times a thousand. He got lucky with Love, and so claims this justifies his strategy even though we freaking suck at every position not named PF. I mean, suppose Randolph can do what he's doing consistently and this isn't just "young guy gets his as we're clearly tanking AGAIN" syndrome. Then what? Kid can't play center, and Darko will throw a fit if we bench him. Kid isn't taking Love's spot, or Beasley.
From what I heard, anecdotal - Morey was partly equipping New Jersey with another 1st rounder to help NJ outbit the Knicks for Carmelo. So getting T-Will served 2 purposes, getting a talented player and trying to screw the Knicks over.
Flynn was a bad pick, the jury is not out... if the draft were held today he would go in the 2nd round, not high lottery. Love was a McHale move... and Kahn had been listening to offers for Love this off season and the beginning of the year... Morey among others were making calls. Rubio has regressed.... and thus far has refused to play in Minnesota. They will not get equal value. Beasley is garbage... a classic case of a guy putting up good numbers on a bad team... see Ricky Davis.... Beasley does not guard, play smart or consistent... too bad As for Randolph.... see comments on Beasley... Wes Johnson looks like a solid player, but nothing more... They will not win as an organization... they are full of mentally weak players: Darko, Randolph and Beasley.....
