Dash Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 For over a decade, the Wolves have looked to highly skilled big men in Kevin Garnett and Al Jefferson to carry the scoring load. Now that Minny has moved past the Al era, who will now be the feature of their offense? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owner Real Deal Posted October 10, 2010 Owner Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Given that they are trying to run the triangle offense, it'll involve Johnson dropping the ball into the post to Kevin Love, with Webster and even Beasley knocking down shots out of it. I'm just not sure how well that will work out, Johnson running the offense...not sure if he'll actually be doing that. But here's the thing: Johnson is excellent at cutting to the basket, and finishing at the rim. Perfect for Love, who is one of the better passing bigs in the NBA. So, in a way, it'll be Love operating out of the post, if Rambis decides he's really going to run the triangle. Johnson won't be handling the ball too much, but will look to score at the rim, with shooters spreading the floor (Webster and Beasley), and you'll see a lot of Beasley and Johnson on the break as well. Will it translate into a winning season? Not a chance, but that may chance once Rubio arrives, because despite not being an excellent shooter, the rest of Rubio's game is made for the triangle offense.

Multi-Billionaire Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 In a couple of seasons, it's Wesley Johnson... once he gets consistent to be a true 3 pt threat and slasher. Now? I'm leaning towards Beasley. From the pre-season I saw him, he played like he's got something to prove. Only a problem is he tends to lose focus at times... He averaged 15ppg last season and could easily increase it on a team that should rely on him for scoring. My prediction: 21ppg, 45 FG%.

Check my Stats Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Beasley is easily their best offensive player, so I would like to think it is him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Feelgood Posted October 10, 2010 Report Share Posted October 10, 2010 Gonna be bias and go with Kevin Love. I think he's one of their better scorers now and easily their best rebounder. He'll have a fantastic season this year. I'd have my offense go through him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
