And the Pacers are still only asking for Odom and Bynum for JO?

haven't heard anything more on it in a few days, but been too busy to pay attention, last I heard is Danny Ainge did confirm he contacted them. that all being said, Doc Rivers is still the coach and has yet to impress me as being a good head coach... I still wouldn't be shocked to see Danny take over midseason, I don't think he wants to, but if they're not doing as well as expected may have no choice to try and save his job. |

Spree wants to return as well. I know he almost became a Laker last season but he wanted a big contract with a team or something like that.

Sorry lads, I've been on vacation.
Well, my opinion is clearly needed in this thread. First of all, McHale is stupid. But that's beyond the point. If they were going to trade Garnett, I am fairly certain that this is the best package they were going to get for him, by far. That said, why didn't they make this trade before the draft, when it was first talked about? The Wolves didn't make the trade and the team started building around Garnett. They traded for Juwan Howard (who now, and rightfully so, wants to be traded) and they drafted a good player who could step in right away. With one or two additional small trades, the Wolves were not far from being a low playoff team. Instead, McHale waited until the team went through summer league and began preparing for another Garnett season to fully fuck things up. The Wolves got a lot of young players and have essentially accepted they will be a bottom-five team this year. That doesn't neccessarily have to be bad though, all they need is for McHale to finally step aside. The Wolves remind me of the Bulls from a few years ago now. There are a lot of young players, but this combination of young players is not compatible together and will not amount to all that much. The Bulls had good management and were able to move Curry, Crawford and Chandler for better/more compatible players, and now they are a title contender. Right now, the Wolves have: Foye, McCants, Brewer, Green, Jefferson, and Telfair. If they can get the 7'2" guy from Georgetown next year we might be talking, but I am convinced that the next time the Wolves make the playoffs, Telfair, McCants and possibly Green will be gone. For Boston, obviously it is a big move on their part and they will probably make the playoffs. Knowing Kevin Garnett - who up until the end never ever was upset about the prospect of finishing his career here - he will play with a huge chip on his shoulder this year. Besides being an amazing athlete and very talented, he plays with as much emotion as anybody in the league. He also thrives on being more of a supplement than the whole team. With Paul Pierce and Ray Allen scoring most of the points, KG could be an absolute beast again down low. He is definitely not too old. The only thing I have to say about Boston is who else do they have now? I'm never a big fan of putting good scoring SG and SF next to each other, especially when there isn't a point guard. The lack of an established, good center won't be a problem, but a real solid point guard and a few good, defensive minded role players are going to be neccessary for this team not to disappoint. |

Hibbert would make a great addition for the T-Wolves if they get him in the draft next yr.

I seen a thing on the net where the Pacers would draft Hibbert off G-Town and then Chris Lofton off Tenn as their PG of the future

Yah, we'll definetly be so bad that we'll probably get like the 1st and 10th pick in the draft .

If you though Oden looks old. Check out HS b-ball center John Riek, a top 10 b-ball player in the HS class of 2008. Lots of people think he looks older than Oden!

Further evidence that the Timberwolves were two medium-sized moves away from the playoffs had they kept Kevin Garnett.

AK47 wants out, likely to go back to Europe. Another reason why Minnesota could have made the playoffs with KG this year.

Yeah he was really cool. He was in town to see his daughter for her second birthday so he was at open practice with the current team here. The difference in an NBA and college athlete is huge, he was so much bigger and stronger than the shooting guards here. Anyway, he was nice and pretty open, talked about how Lithuania was a good experience but he wouldn't do it again because it was pretty shitty, the Bobcats bs about him not working hard enough, and then said he is going to challenge for a starting spot and will get big minutes on the Pacers this year. So we'll see what happens. Linas Kleiza and Keyon Dooling are also in the pros from Mizzou, but Kareem has always been the most exciting from our standpoint.
