At least he can be held accountable if hes coaching them as well right?
I think the funniest thing in the universe would be in the T-wolves started winning now. I'm not a McHale fan or anything, but the amount of hate directed at him around here before now would make the irony complete. Especially when you also take into consideration Danny Ainge...
Begining of the end of the mcfail era here in Minny.
Today was a good first step, Twittman is the worst coach in the NBA. If/probable that Mcfail cant coach these guys to a respectable/watchable product, he's likely ousted.
Wasn't that the same thing said the last time McHale was inserted as coach?
That was until McFail went on to coach an actually respectable 19-12 record back in 05. That was with KG though, he's got no KG this time around and nobody to play an lick of defense, especially with Brewer out for the year.

But he won't be playing Jason Collins and he'll probably win more than 21% of the Wolves' games.
Re: Timberwolves fire coach Randy Wittman, Kevin McHale takes over
The T-Wolves are just a sad team.
I say this as a Clipper fan (another sad team) who watched the Clips play Memphis and then Minny back-to-back.
Memphis has a poor record but they have a lot of talent (Mayo, Gay, Gasol, Arthur, Critt, Conley, Warick), so at least they have hope.
Clippers have a poor record but at least they have alot of proven vets (Baron, Kaman, Camby, Randolph), so at least they have hope.
The Wolves have NOTHING except Jefferson, Love and a Mike Miller (who is getting older). Seriously, they have nothing but Jefferson, Love and a bunch of undersized combo guards.
They are sad and have no hope for the future - a bad combo.

It's so sad, its true.
We have a ton of potential picks coming up this years if the stars align. Need a Portland Trailblazers 2006 like draft to have any sort of hope. If Mcfails picking them, its all but over. This is the guy who gave up Roy, Granger and Mayo.
Re: Timberwolves fire coach Randy Wittman, Kevin McHale takes over
I still can't believe he traded OJ Mayo for Kevin Love. At least with the Brandon Roy trade, I can somewhat understand that blunder since Roy wasn't considered to be such a hot NBA prospect, but there has been so much hype for OJ Mayo, and so far it was well deserved.
