TarHeelRavenParticipantlooks absolutely pissed that Minnesosta picked him. You could literally read his lips say "fuck!!!" It’s gonna be a huge adjustment going from the the sun and warmth of Southern California to the harsh cold winters of Minnesota. Not to mention this guy has a TON of developing to do.

Meditated StatesParticipantDevelopment too. System made love not even look that good. I would have liked Lavine at 17

frogmanParticipantYou can’t help but think Lavine wanted to drop one more spot to Phoenix. Him being the developmental third guard behind Dragic and Bledsoe in the Phoenix system and that weather with proximity to California would have been perfect.

BallinmvpParticipantYeah, he could take it either two ways. I’m in Minnesota and I’m gonna help turn the team around or he can sulk and not live up to his talent and potential. I think he will adjust and work his butt off

bkb77ParticipantBet the kids thinking is it too late to go back to Bel Air for 1 more year of school. Doesn’t seem like a happy camper although if I had to go from living in LA to living in freezing Minnesota for a bad team.
But hey suck it up you just became a Millionaire.

BlueLacesParticipantRead a tweet that according to his agent, Minny is where he wanted to go. Feels like he can fit in right away with them.

MopgrassParticipantEmbiid looked pissed too. They said it was because of a satellite delay, but it looked like it was only delayed half a second. He sat there for 3 seconds looking mad. I’m sure his agent got a hold of him before they cut back to him smiling.

strobox88ParticipantZach Lavine will fit in nicely at Minnesota. Always room for a shooter in the NBA, even more so if you are an elite athlete.

PurpleMonkeyDishwasherParticipantBizarre comments from people that have never been to Minnesota and would probably have trouble finding it on a map.
Minnesota is voted annually as one of the most livable states in the country. Add to it the fact that is has top rated health care and some the the most educated people in the country.
Minnesota might not have the weather of San Diego or Miami but you don’t have to fear for your families safety every time they leave the house.

llperezI don’t think any millionaires are gonna live in a place where they fear for safety. I live in the Los Angeles area where there are absolute shit holes. But there are also countless communities where houses average 1mllion$+ and that’s where the thousands of celebs live in peace.

llperezAt couple posts above, call me a pussy if you want. Cold sucks balls. Many many people want nothing to do with that bs. I guess if you grow up with it it ain’t bad, but 70 degree winters to snow is a tough transition for some.

SnowtaParticipantI don’t think he’s mad at all. The overreaction to that by fans is unbelievable and honestly I’m embarrassed by these Wolves fans all tweeting at him about how it’s another UCLA player that doesn’t want to be here and bs all because of the whole K-Love situation. In interviews LaVine talks about how excited he is to be in Minnesota. He talked about how excited he is to play with Rubio and honestly I don’t know why you wouldn’t be when you’re that athletic playing with one of the best playmakers in the league. People gotta realize how emotional these moments are for 18 and 19 year old kids. He puts his head down to thank god and people act like he’s slamming his head down on the table because he’s so mad he just got drafted in the lottery to play in the NBA?? These players have worked there whole life for this moment, so you can imagine it’s a little stressful waiting to hear your name called. As for what he said f*** me or man or whatever, to me it just seemed like he was relieved. The link is for an article where he talks about it. As a Wolves fan myself, I’m pumped about the pick and think he could be the perfect backcourt partner for Rubio.

PurpleMonkeyDishwasherParticipantI wasn’t just speaking of basketball players preferences as much as much as the generalizing that was going on about Minnesota. Every place has its positives and negatives and people have their own dislikes. What gets old is hearing people parrot ignorant oppinions without having actually experienced what they are speaking negatively about while acting like they have experienced said place.
