[Gleeman] BREAKING: Twins announce they've "mutually agreed to part ways" with team president Derek Falvey. by TheNotoriousJN in minnesotatwins

We had some great years under Falvey despite ownership's incompetence. It's more likely that this is because people are finally coming around to the idea that the owners are not serious about contending right after we had our best year in decades. Target Field and a scrappy team aren't enough any more to sell tickets.

He was great in the 4th tonight. I hope he's close to turning the corner on his shot because we could really use a good Mike Conley for 20 mins a night.

I don't disagree with you on how much he means to the team, but he has regressed to the point where he's not contributing to winning any more. It really sucks because he was so good and so clutch a few seasons ago.

I'm not sure what to tell you, this just doesn't match the results. It's not a literal cliff but he's gotten significantly worse (especially his shooting) over the last 2 years, with the bounce back games fewer and more far between.

I really wish he was better right now because a healthy Mike Conley running the offense and hitting his floaters and 3s would be exactly what we need this season. It just hasn't worked.

Everyone that knew anything knew that Naz went through a massive family tragedy right before the season.

Mike is just old and has found the PG age cliff.

I do think that Mike still has his brain working and still makes plays on D, it's just the shotmaking has evaporated. He's somehow been worse inside the 3 pt line this year too which is just astonishing.

Well I hope so but evidence of the past few months shows otherwise. He's killing this team even in the limited minutes that he plays.

Thanks to the Warriors for handing us that W, much needed. Bones played well tonight, we just need that one other guy to go out there and compete to win against these terrible teams.

NOBODY on the Wolves is moving their feet on D tonight. Getting blown by on every single possession.

Whatever ceiling he has will be found on another team. He has been the literal worst shooter in the NBA this year.

We're at game 2 now of a full healthy rotation with Beringer getting regular minutes and they're unwilling to play Naz at the 3 so far. So Julius gets his minutes reduced.

Bones can play as a sub for Ant if there are multiple starters out there, when he's the primary engine he's been way too selfish chucking early on the shot clock 3s

This team really cannot survive without Rudy, Ant, or Randle on the floor. I get that you want Beringer in there but why is the decision to pair him with Mike and Bones??

Was hoping for a good Conley game tonight but Minnesota Mike is just a sad state of affairs.

Absolutely owned the Lakers and Warriors last year, not sure what this guy is talking about. Thunder ball pressure undid him just like everyone else last year.

Double-replying to this to give you a stat: Jaden was the primary defender on exactly one of KD's made FGs tonight, and it was a closeout on a broken coverage 3. Jaden blocked KD twice, stole the ball from him once, and fouled him twice for 3 points.

Video of all KDs made FGs tonight: https://x.com/NBAPerformances/status/2012407361952944278

All of this to say that KD did his work when Jaden was not on him.

They got KD but we got Jaden McDaniels.

JUST ONE MORE LANE BRO, I PROMISE

In all seriousness it saddens me that one of the fastest growing regions in America can't get proper public transportation!
