It's so hard to get a trade done on the NBA, isn't that right Kevin McHale? Weird, seems like the GM's of the Bulls and the Hornets don't seem to think it's all that difficult. The Mavs and Pacers also don't seem to find it too difficult. Of course, it might be the case that their GM's didn't hog-tie them with ridiculous contracts to past-their-prime players constantly over the past 5 years.
A couple of things bother me with who the Wolves are supposedly pursuing.
Does it bother anyone else that Mike James is 31 years old and just, FUNNY!, had his best season as a pro last year before his free-agent season for a horrible team that had minimal scoring options?
Also, anyone else concerned by the fact that the two guys that Wolves are most heavily interested in (reportedly) are 31 (James) and 30 (Lorenzen Wright) respectively?
Look, Lorenzen Wright adds size to your team, rebounds, and that's about it. He's averaging less than 9 points a game for his career and has a pretty low field goal % for a big man, 46%.
Yet another off-season of minimal moves with likely poor results.
I still would hate to see the Wolves trade Garnett, but for KG's sake, not the Wolves, I think it's time for him to go. Garnett is my favorite athlete ever and it makes me sick to see him subject to Kevin McHale's janky management and poor talent evaluation. He deserves a shot at a championship, something I fear he'll never get in a Wolves uniform.
