http://ppt.cc/Th-u Corey Brewer, Minnesota Timberwolves Corey Brewer returns back to the team that drafted him on a three-year, $15 million deal. The Timberwolves want a small forward who will be able to fill the void of Andrei Kirilenko, and unfortunately, Brewer is not that guy. The former Denver Nugget averaged 12.1 points per game on 42.5 percent shooting. It should also be noted that he attempted nearly 10.8 shots per game in 24.4 of average minutes per game. Compare all that to Kirilenko’s 12.4 points on 50.7 percent shooting and his 8.8 average attempts in 31.8 minutes. The Timberwolves chose to replace Kirilenko with a less-efficient player who can contribute less across the board. In a year that Kevin Love is returning, the Timberwolves made the decision to bring on a small forward who demands touches to be effective and who likely won’t contribute in non-scoring ways, and overall, the decision to sign Brewer to a multi-year deal removes some flexibility in Minnesota’s books for little upside. --
