Zach Lowe Podcast: Ryan Saunders (Interview)
http://www.espn.com/espnradio/play?id=27194898
Zach talks to Minnesota Timberwolves coach Ryan Saunders about building around Karl-Anthony Towns, the legacy of his father, Flip, being Kevin Garnett's ball kid, Sam Cassell's trash talk, and much more.

Re: Zach Lowe Podcast: Ryan Saunders (Interview)
Didn't listen, but I really wish they'd leave the Flip thing alone at this point. By now everyone has made the Flip connection, constantly bringing it up only makes it harder for Ryan to do his job.
Let Ryan be his own man and build his own legacy.

Nothing new so far, bit of a yawner. Media needs to quit rehashing the same old stories with him. Find a new angle.

Re: Zach Lowe Podcast: Ryan Saunders (Interview)
Some good stories about KG, Saunders spewing the tired company line when asked about Wiggins (he has so much talent, you should see him in practice, blah blah, blah...). One thing I didn't know, was that Ryan has been buddies with Gersson for about 8 years. Also, Ryan seems to put a little too much buddy-buddy stock into coaching players, IMO. I believe it is very important, but time will tell if Ryan can be tough enough to actually make a difference.

*We've had a big problem of recent finding a coach that can connect with our young players and bring out the best of them. But for whatever reason they seem to respond to Ryan and support him as HC.
*Ryan has a glaring hole in his resume compared to other equal HC candidates, so when he was interviewing he had to be able to demonstrate a tangible thing that he can point to to help offset that.
We'll see what ends up happening though. Eventually the buddy/buddy thing only gets you so far, so you have to be able to still keep professional boundaries and constantly evolve the relationship if it's going to work long term.

Re: Zach Lowe Podcast: Ryan Saunders (Interview)
The knowing Gersson bit for 8 years was interesting, as well as the app they created. The last bit about Cassell, Wiggins, Okogie, and summer workouts was interesting. But the bulk of it was stories told elsewhere. Worth the listen if you're sitting at work.

I'm not as concerned about the "buddy-buddy" bit as others. Players have to want to play for their coach, have to be interested and feel like their "boss" gives a shit about their success. The tired screams of guys like Mitchell and Thibs are played out.

How much failure or success will people place on Saunders this season? People will want to hang him and the org if we start 1-4 saying it was a nepotism hire and classic loser Wolves. I may jump on that boat too but will it be fair?

Re: Zach Lowe Podcast: Ryan Saunders (Interview)
I think the assumed worry is if you are "buddy-buddy" with your players you lose authority over the players. I think (smart) players respect a coach that knows his stuff regardless of demeanor. On one end, players all probably hate Rick Carlisle for example, but they sure as hell know he is a genius so he can get away with his tough act. If Ryan knows his stuff, he can be buddy buddy with who he wants.

Re: Zach Lowe Podcast: Ryan Saunders (Interview)
For me, with Mitchell and really all coaches/regimes, it's been about the process, not the record. I hated Mitchell's process, same with Thibs. Even though Thibs got us to the playoffs once, I hated the way he went about it and didn't see it as sustainable.Sergeant Rubetube wrote: ↑Mon Jul 15, 2019 12:35 pmWas it fair when people did it to Sam Mitchell?

I liked Mitchell more than Thibs but it is hard to argue that Thibs gave us a good season when all others have failed to do that in almost two decades.

Re: Zach Lowe Podcast: Ryan Saunders (Interview)
It was fair because we saw what he was running and it was brutal. Offense left over from the 50's. A former coach of the year hasn't even sniffed a job since. He does not believe in analytics and basically hated everyone during that season and how dare question him in media interviews. He is his own worst enemy but I'm going to assume you don't see or recall any of that as he's brother mitchell to you.Sergeant Rubetube wrote: ↑Mon Jul 15, 2019 12:35 pmWas it fair when people did it to Sam Mitchell?

Imagine calling a grown man "boy" over and over because you're still upset about a coach being let go 4 years ago. A coach with only 1 winning season in a terrible division, and an overall losing record.

Like I said before.. I don't really care as I see this as a Leslie Frazier hire. This team is going to be bad right now so why waste money on a good HC.
Once they get the roster in better order in the next couple year's, that's when I think they will moge on from him anyway.

As j2j said, improvement. On top of that, no baffling lineup changes, no allowing Wiggins, among others, to ignore Towns on multiple possessions, decreased long two's, lack of defensive effort is punished, etc.
I wasn't to incredibly pleased with Saunders last season. Took him a month to finally start Saric and it was still part time, about 24 minutes a game. Wiggins was still taking really bad shots, defense tanked (if I recall correctly). And I hated the homer hire.
I'm putting trust into Rosas that he did go through a process and they are on the same page.
We shall see.
