Timberwolves to fire Rambis

Minnesota Timberwolves general manager David Kahn has decided to fire coach Kurt Rambis, league sources told Yahoo! Sports.

Kahn isn’t expected to announce the decision until after Thursday’s NBA draft, but he’s already begun collecting information on prospective replacements for Rambis, including University of Washington coach Lorenzo Romar, sources said. The Timberwolves have gathered background on Romar for several weeks, and are expected to make him a candidate to replace Rambis.

Kahn is a nut job. He asked Rambis to write a report on what he would change if he were retained as a coach. Um, as GM, isn't your job to simply assess a coach and determine if he's the guy you want?

Rambis and the T-Wolves needed to part because Rambis lost the team, but the way Kahn has done it has actually made Rambis a victim in this whole process.
