• Derrick Williams’ grade so far for the 2011/12 season could only be marked “INCOMPLETE.” Williams has had his ups and downs this season, and it isn’t clear where Adelman is going to play him. Williams is averaging 14.3 pts/36 mins and 8…

  • In another hard-fought defeat, the Wolves were actually close to a full-fledged disaster on their hands at Target Center, Tuesday Night.  In front of a capacity crowd and after Coach Adelman stubbornly started the same lineup as in recent games,…
