In the words of Shaq, "Hey McHale, how does my @$$ taste?!"

I am done with the Minnesota Timberwolves. The management is full of incompetent boobs that it makes it impossible to be a fan.

I absolutely hate the Kevin Love trade!!! We only have one good player, a power forward in Al Jefferson. So what do we do? We draft another power forward?!?! Plus, who is Love going to effectively defend in the league. At 6'8 he is too small to guard power forwards and too slow to guard small forwards. Think of the PF's in this league: Ben Wallace, Jermaine O'Neal, Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Chris Bosh, Charles Boozer, LaMarcus Aldridge, Dirk Nowitzki, Elton Brand, Josh Smith, Al Horford, Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom, David West, et cetera. At the number three pick in the NBA Draft, you expect to draft a guy who is a future all-star. Kevin Love wasn't even the first UCLA Bruin picked, that honor goes to Russell Westbrook. Love is short, slow, and will be at best, a solid role player and sixth man but he will not be a star. And to top it all off, the Wolves had the first pick and the fourth pick in the second round. The first pick they chose a player who is under contract to play in Europe until 2011 at the earliest!!! And they traded Mario Chalmers, a solid, but not spectacular point guard who fits a need for the Wolves, with the fourth pick to the Miami Heat for the Heat's 2009 and 2010 second round picks. They could have taken Chalmers, or Chris Douglas Roberts, Bill Walker, or Deandre Jordan and they traded it away for a bag of doughnuts basically. Kevin McHale has always been a terrible GM and this trade just continues his downward spiral. Let's look at this past few first round draft picks. Randy Foye (bust), Rashad McCants (bust), Corey Brewer (probable bust). The only reason he has any talent on the team, Al Jefferson, is because he traded Kevin Garnett for him because McHale did such a lousy job putting talent around him. Mark my words, the Wolves will have the worst team record in the NBA next year. Congratulations McHale, you fucking idiot. I have about twenty more pages of thoughts on the NBA draft but I will wait and calm down a bit first.
