Sam Mitchell

Is the worst former COY ever.

Oer the past few games he has sat Towns for either the entire 4th quarter or until the last 2 minutes when the game was out of reach and has limited his miutes to around 25 a game.

WTF is this shit? Literally everyone in the basketball community has been bashing Mitchell for this INCLUDING THE CLIPPERS ANNOUNCERS TODAY

17 points
8 rebounds
3 steals
1 block

and the kid is only rewarded with 26 minutes

Meanwhile he goes with Dieng down the stretch. Now for those of you who don't know, Dieng is the second worst center defending the rim allowing ~74% of shots to go in, only better than Bargnani.

Yeah, keeping KAT out for so long was hilariously dumb.

Seriously... I put a live bet on Wolves +10.5 which they covered but was tearing my hair out when this dumbsss coach was giving towns the DAngeslow treatment.

Same shit with Scott and Russell in LA, how tf do these guys get head coaching jobs?

Maybe his conditioning sucks. I dunno. I wouldn't jump the gun.

Mitchell is known as a horrible coach and Towns' conditioning isn't an issue.

Maybe he doesn't want Towns hitting a rookie wall cuz he'll need him for a playoff push in March?

Still doesn't make sense for him to play him ~25 minutes a game. With the way He was playing this game would have been so much closer. Dieng may have put up a decent box score but he allowed a ton of baskets ad neglected so many rotations. NO sense in giving away wins now just to make it tougher later on.
