Wolves Updates 7/2 Part 2
TWolves Blog - Minnesota Timberwolves News and Articles —
... Shawn (Rochester, MN): Hi David. Do you think Love will be starting or at least playing major minutes in MN this year? They historically haven't played their rookies a ton, but they don't have much front-court quality to choose from outside Jefferson. David Thorpe: I do. Ben (Mpls): Which side of the Wolves/Memphis trade did you like better? David Thorpe: Minny by a long shot. From a Chat with Chad Ford at ESPN: Ken (St. Paul): I don't get how this trade makes sense for the Wolves... Chad Ford: I think Love and Jefferson can co-exist. It's an odd pairing, but Love is ...
Friday Notes: Najera, Krstic, Mo, Joe, podcasting

... It sounds like Najera will want more than a BAE-level deal, but it's unclear if the Bucks would want to pay more than that given their current salary structure.

I mean, have you heard anything about this? Because I haven't. Paul had an apparently horrific knee injury in Game 1, but battled back and won MVP. By that point we had obviously figured his injury wasn't nearly as bad as

In Appreciation Of… Rajon Rondo
redsarmy.wordpress.com 7/2/2008 — Rondo showed up as a kid who should have been going into his junior year… and he had been handed the task of leading “The Big 3.” It would have made sense for him to crumble a little. To be too star-struck sharing the court with mega-stars. But he thrived. He took charge right away.
