Why exactly would the Timberwolves want a far worse version of the player they already have, though? You don't need AB when you have Kevin Love.
Edit: I think my view on Ross was fair - he's young and raw, but has potential. I think you just agreed to that; there's a lot of his game that needs work (specifically ball skills), but a lot to like (D and shooting), so the question is how that develops. He also hasn't had enough playing time to have a meaningful sample to evaluate him at the NBA level.
As to the rest, I think it's actually pretty accurate. None of the DeMar, Fields, Anderson, or Pietrus tandem is going to play a major role on a playoff team. Also, DeMar and Fields are super-overpaid for what they bring to the table. None of those guys are stars, and a lot of them are sub-average. Can you name any team in the NBA that you wouldn't swap SGs and SFs with if you are the Raptors?
