Wow, I can't remember an assistant being hired away from another team during the season.
I agree with those that say Ryan should have never gotten the permanent job, but I also think scapegoating him for this season is absolutely ridiculous. For the vast majority of the season the most proven play at either the 4/5 on his roster was Juancho (or you could argue Ed Davis). Then DLo was hurt for most of the stretch and when he played he proved that he was every bit as overpaid as Wiggins. Finally, Rubio looks absolutely finished. I've watched the Raptors game and the Knicks game and Rubio bascially lost both of these games for the Wolves. Given that he's not had any games with the Wolves alleged two max players and they were clearly tanking last year...I am not sure what fans were expecting? I've seen more from McDaniel and Reid than I expected to. Turning some of these young guys in to actual NBA players is about the best thing that could have happened this year.
I don't think Ryan has proven to be a good coach, but he's made far few glaring mistakes than Rosas has during their combined tenure. I hope he lands on his feet somewhere and can rehab his image. JB Bickerstaff got another job way sooner than I thought possible (granted it was largely due to Beilein stepping down) so hopefully Ryan gets another shot at a head coaching gig someday down the line.
