Randy Wittman out as T-Wolves Head Coach...

....and Kevin McHale is soon to follow.

McHale was forced to resign as Vice President of Basketball Operations in order to take over as Head Coach. Erratic T-Wolves owner Glen Taylor may see this as a way to eventually force out native Minnesotan and very popular personality McHale. Kind of a "put up or shut up" scenario.

Best of luck to McHale.

He'll need it as Minnesota is sorely lacking in experienced talent: 4 man Al Jefferson and small forward Mike Miller are decent pros, point guard Randy Foye remains a talented enigma who has produced decent numbers in an inconsistent season, center Kevin Love is a future serviceable pro, and Rashard McCants, Corey Brewer, Craig Smith, and Ryan Gomes are decent NBA players would can contribute off the bench to a winning team. Though there are no veteran stars in Minnesota, some of the young players do have talent. Love, Big Al, and Foye especially. But with no veteran leadership to follow, it is hard to picture coach McHale winning even half his games in the last two thirds of the season, which is what one would think would be the minimum required to stay on due to his unpopularity with Taylor.
