Kevin Love has participated in some portions of contact practice the last two days and will be re-evaluated by doctors tomorrow or Thursday.
Kurt Rambis said conditioning will be Love’s biggest issue and didn’t indicate that a return to game action is imminent (like, this week).
Rambis says Love is in pretty good shape, but still has a ways to go before he is ready to handle the bumping and banging that can quickly wear down a player who has been out for a long stretch.
I did a little snooping around Minnesota and I think Wall would still get the nod there. There would be a robust trade market for Flynn and/or Rubio if the Wolves were to take Wall.
For the first time in his career, Brewer is working to restructure his jumper. Fans may see inconsistency in Brewer’s field goal percentage but the shooting guard is spending countless hours with the coaching staff.
“We believe he can be a very good open shooter,” Rambis said. “With his speed and ability to attack the basket, if you make those open shots then people run at you and then you pump fake, now you can get inside the interior of the defense. It’s those concepts that he is trying to develop and break that habit that he had of always leaning back.”
Brewer is beginning to see the results of a focused approach to shooting, “I’m feeling better, I had a couple of pretty good games, I only had one game where I didn’t shoot it well, so it’s working. It’s all about staying on balance; the balance is the main thing on my shot.”
