at the risk of sounding like Briggs...
I think KP's offseason checklist should be...
1. Strength Training
2. Stamina Training
3. Hook shot
4. Posting and dribbling with back to basket until 4 ft away from rim
5. Passing quickly and accurately on double teams
6. Spot up shooting from anywhere on the floor without dribbling (He turns it over due to steals from defender/help defender. I think there's too much air space between A. his palms and the floor. B. his palms with arm down and apex of his shot....there's too much opportunity for the ball to be poked away etc by the defender while he tries to raise for a shot)
7. When a defender bodies him up one-on-one, ability to simply jump up and shoot without having shot affected (related to #1)
8. Watching film to get a nose for rebounding like Kanter (related to #1 and #2)

Markkanen last game. Not a good stretch after announcing he was tired.
KPis a lost cause at the moment. Can't remember the last game where he was in form. If this is how its going to continue then might aswell quit.
Our pg situation is being EXPOSED, KP has been EXPOSED, and teams are eating it up

Im glad THJ is back, maybe give KP some time to get a second wind.
The wolves have a lot of talent - Teague, Butler, KAT, J Craw, Dieng and Tyus Jones

SHUT UP
They're a legit contender with Butler
We r down 18 with 4 minutes left. PLAY FRANKIE at this point. What does having Jack in accomplish ???
KP will be fine in time.
This year 1 of his learning process as the man.
Totally different attention is paid to him now on a nightly basis.
He has to get better but he never would unless he played the role he is now.
What I'm happy about is we are heading for a tank real soon.
Perry needs to be a seller come trade deadline.
Only keep assets that can still improve on the way up.
Willy
KP
McDermott
THj
Frank
I'd keep OQuinn because he's shown he will improve each year with the team.
Time for Kanter, Thomas, Lee to get us some longterm value back.

What KP needs the most is an inside game. He needs to learn footwork when someone is on him that is smaller than him, KP needs to use footwork to attack the basket. A hook shot would be nice. Lessons with Jabbar and Hakeem and KP would be a superstar.
