We are already halfway through the season and right now, the Timberwolves are showing zero identity as a team. They have showed me nothing since December. They are playing like a lottery team. Right now, this team stinks Things are not getting better anytime soon.

Star-Tribune's columnist Patrick Reusse posed a question about who could do what for the Timberwolves and find the right rotation. If I had an answer according to Patrick, my basketball acumen is very good and I know my acumen is very good. My acumen is so good that I am considering long and hard about running the Timberwolves.

Here's what I do:

-- Start Anthony Carter at the point. Troy Hudson has showed me nothing at the point. He is not scoring points and he is not passing the ball. He is just playing like crap. At least, the offense will run much smoother with Anthony Carter at the point than Troy. Plus, Anthony can shoot the ball well.

-- Start Dwayne Jones. Olowokandi does well coming off the bench and Griffin has been useless. Madsen comes off the bench after Jones. Timberwolves drafted the kid with the hope that he will develop into a NBA player. I think he is a NBA player. He did well in the NBDL. Can he be any worse than Kandi or Griffin?

-- Give starting minutes to Bracey Wright and Rashad McCants. Those two kids will provide energy and points. Those two will improve our offense easily.

-- Start giving Ronald Dupree and Nikoloz Tskitishvili playing time. I gurantee you that they will combine for 10 points a night.

I feel if Casey follows my four-point plan, we are not only going to the playoffs, but we are going to the second round. I honestly believe it will work. Those guys deserve to get as much playing time because the current supporting cast are horrible. Let's see if the new guys can mesh with KG and Wally. Just maybe we can find a third scorer out of the new guys I came up with.

I am going to email this to Reusse and ask what he thinks. I think he may like it.
