According to multiple sources, the new coach of the Minnesota Timberwolves will be Seattle assistant Dwane Casey. I know next to nothing about the man, but he's not P.J. Carlesimo (which is quite a great quality), and not another of the retreads allegedly considered, so I say it's not a bad choice. And since Minnesota teams tend to hang onto coaches forever, we may as well get used to him.
But regardless, I still say firing Flip Saunders was a huge mistake.
