why isn't the timberwolves better?

[STATUTORY]

I don't get to watch a lot of their games but they have a really talented squad on paper:

rubio, wiggins, lavine, towns

yet they cant scrape together any wins... why?

[Rocketswin2013]

wiggins sucks ****.

Rubio = Meh

Wiggins = empty stats with no rebounding/passing/playmaking/leadership

LaVine = doing well, but not getting enough playing time

Towns = doing well

[FKAri]

Dieng and Shabazz have been good for them too.

They can't seem to guard teams despite having good individual defenders. That's usually a sign of inept coaching.

[Jameerthefear]

young as hell + a bad coach. teams that young just don't win games yet.

[Rocketswin2013]

and he's not the reason they lose a lot. but he really isn't good.

Lavine is now becoming a true wing, instead of whatever hybrid thing wanted to start with.

Rubio and Towns are decent to good players. Dieng is okay in some areas. underrated shooter, and decent activity at the rim. the rest of the team are underdeveloped or over the hill.

[Fallen Angel]

Coach is trash, Wiggins isn't even Top 15 in his position, Coach is trash, Lavine is inconsistent, rotation is meh, and the Coach is trash

Towns is a beast, though. Him and KG click off the court and that is giving him so much more confidence than the average rookie has.

[bdreason]

Young teams lose games in the NBA. They've lost some close games as well. Don't forget they lost their coach to start the season.

[ISHGoat]

how the **** does OP make such a basic english mistake in the TITLE

[coin24]

Hopefully they hire a coach soon, such a waste of talent

[Angel Face]

Wiggins has the tools to take over but is too passive. Sometimes he looks lost out there. Towns is a beast tho and Lavine looks like the next low IQ chucker.

[FireDavidKahn]

Smitch.

He doesn't believe in the 3 ball, ball movement, relies heavily on ISO, and wants everyone to shoot long two's. He is also an arrogant asshole that always blames the players and in press conferences says "Back in Toronto we did this"

Another coach would have us probably 10 wins better right now.

[Prime_Shaq]

Wiggins isn't being very assertive enough for a player with his skillset. Lavine's defense is really bad, actually Twolves as a whole have a very bad defense. They can hang with certain teams but down the stretch they really struggle to get stops.

[deja vu]

It's due to inexperience and a terrible coach. Their two best players are a rookie and a soph. They have several close games that were lost due to inexperience.

And Wiggins playing like a young Rudy Gay. He's only concern in his scoring rather than improving his all around game.
