1) As I reflect on Curt Cousin’s time in MN, I can’t help but to think how he is the ultimate anti-Brady. While Brady was taking less $ than he could have earned in order to win at all costs, Kirk scrapped for every penny. One of them won 35 playoff games and the other won 1…
#1 NFL Draft pick Fernando Mendoza & fellow Raiders QB Kirk Cousins did a Step Brothers impression for the team’s schedule release 😂
One of the best releases I’ve seen so far
@elb612@KyleTheige Cassell and Sczerbiak were all stars with the Timberwolves. K Love was an all star starter. Jaden has a little ways to go before being an all star. But he’s young.
I’m curious - were you saying this two weeks ago or is there some recency bias after an awesome series by Jaden?
@Aberg1@PaulCharchian Tier 2 is Rudy and Buxton. Buxton is a multi-time All Star who has won a platinum gold glove and is coming off a silver slugger season last year.
McDaniels and Faber aren’t quite there yet.
@elb612@KyleTheige Tough to put him top 5 YET. K Love, Sczerbiak, Ryder, Cassell?
I love Jaden so much, but I feel like he either needs an all star game appearance or 1st team all NBA defense before joining that list. Which I think he gets in the next 1-2 years. #howl
If you are going to intentionally foul not once but twice down 12 with 33 seconds...and shoot a 3 with 10.4 seconds (Murray could have dribbled the clock out)...you shouldn't be complaining about a layup at the end of the game. I'm just saying.
Jaden McDaniels, deadpan delivery, on what worked for the Timberwolves offensively.
Jaden: Go at Jokic, Jamal, all the bad defenders. Tim Hardaway, Cam Johnson, Aaron Gordon, their whole team.”
Q: They’re all bad defenders?
Jaden: “Yeah, they’re all bad defenders.”
Not the prettiest outing because of shaky control, but Taj Bradley now has a 1.25 ERA through four starts, with 29 strikeouts in 21 2/3 innings.
And if this score holds, the Twins will have won all four of Bradley's starts.
@TomD_SADFORIAN@MSPBJnews They’re undergoing a big course redesign right now which is partly why costs are lower at the moment. It’ll go back up in a couple years but likely not more than $30-40k.
@PaulCharchian@JOECOOLSKOL Just a really poor comparison. Bad weather is a part of football culture and they had 8 home games. Baseball fans have 81 games which gives fans the luxury of waiting for nice weather games. Nothing new here.
