08:03 AM ET 04.25 | No doubt, Glen Taylor is looking at the same numbers. [Fans] should be wondering what it will take for Taylor to fire David Kahn. This week, Taylor said he planned to pick up the option on Kahn's contract, meaning the Wolves owner has stayed true to the core tenet of his sports management philosophy: Abject failure is OK with him. In his last three seasons on the job, the three seasons that moved Taylor to finally relieve him of his duties, McHale's winning percentage was .317. In his first three seasons on the job, Kahn's winning percentage is .253. In three Aprils under Kahn, when an improving young team should be able to display its promise, the Wolves are 1-25. McHale deserved his dismissal, and he was twice the GM that Kahn is.

The Wolves showed promise thisyear, but records still don't lie.

Kahn has made some really dumb decisions in his time, but if you stuck with the guy before it'd be stupid to fire him after this season when his team looked good when all together. It isn't his fault Rubio's knee gave out. Take Cp3 off the Clippers or Nash off the Suns and see how other teams function without their engine (and no i don't believe Rubio is in those guys class of pg yet, but there's no denying he made everyone around him better)
