Timberwolves strike back!

[SlyPokerDog]

Trade for Dante Cunningham.

Mike Barrett ‏@blazermb

T-Wolves didn't get Batum, but still after anyone with Portland ties, evidently. They acquire Dante Cunningham in trade for Wayne Ellington.

gotta be a slow day

 

[Mediocre Man]

Blocked our menage with NO and PHO too

 

[Blazinaway]

"megage"?

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

HUH?

I'm assuming you meant "menage", but I still don't understand you. You live too close to Mexico - you're forgetting English, FAMS!!

Yeah, Bro, you lost me there...I know, really, me? lol

Shultzy influence is taking over - he knows lesss and less

 

[Blazinaway]

I think we think he meant a 3-way but then again it's MM

 

[EL PRESIDENTE]

Yeah, but I still don't get it. Was there a deal out there? And why would this change that?

I like Dante. But he's pretty much a scrub. Cool to see Minne finally succeed after attempting to acquire 17 other SF's first, though. Kudos to Kahn!

 

[ironcrotch]

Kahn is Kahn'ing himself, trades away Brad Miller, trades for him again a few weeks later.

Awoj:

At least part of package back to Minny would include Brad Miller (his contract), Jerome Dyson and draft picks, sources say.

 

[PapaG]

I remember when KP was being killed here for drafting Cunningham. Turns out he'll have a decent career as a role player.

Has anybody signed DeJuan Blair yet? Didn't San Antonio cut him yet? I thought he was going to be waived unless he could be a part of a trade. He has a non-guaranteed contract.

And by "find online" you mean browse through your gallery on your phone.

 

[Sedatedfork]

Rip Shitty (as Trade Marked by OregonHuskerFan)

 

[SheedSoNasty]

Was the deal going to involve Robin López coming here?

 

[Rastapopoulos]

BUT: the Wolves may have cleared enough cap space to sign Kirilenko, who will thrive in an Adelman system.

Damnit, everybody the Wolves are signing is intriguing: I really like Shved and Kirilenko and I would have liked Stiemsma, too. And I have a soft spot for Dante.

Say what you like about Kahn, but he realizes his mistakes (Johnny Flynn, Wesley Johnson, yes I spot the Syracuse connection) and moves on fairly quickly. And he's used cap space (when he's actually had it) pretty well.

 

[Mediocre Man]

a 1st for AK47?

 

[Nikolokolus]

I don't have a problem with Cunningham, I kind of liked his demeanor and his game so I don't fault Kahn for that. But holy balls, just how many Portland connections are there in that organization? Kahn, Adelman, Porter, Bayno, Love, Roy, Tolliver, the failed Batum attempt ...

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

Lopez to NO. Three-team deal with Minne, Phoenix, and NO.

I'm interviewing with them tomorrow!

 

[MARIS61]

Awkward love triangle coming soon!

 

[BLAZINGGIANTS]

I'm interviewing with them tomorrow!

Why? Summer and winters are more harsh, so yard/field work is that more of a bitch, and minimum wage is like $3/hour less in Minne.

The entire NBA has been in a race to sign Kirilenko. :MARIS61:

He's a shell of what he was 7 years ago.

 

[OSUBlazerfan]

9m for Kirelinko? bwahahahahahah

Story/ Sources: Wolves target Kirilenko w/ $9M a year offer, would trade Wes and 1st to make cap room http://bit.ly/NVt6Zv

 

[MickZagger]

9 mil a year for a guy who hasn't been in the league in a couple years and is up there in age?

Kahn is just a fucking idiot. Classic. Now he's going to trade a lottery pick from two years ago and another 1st round pick for a 30 year-old who hasn't put up even a 19 PER in 6 years?

 

[ehizzy3]

well, um...can we get in on that trade for wesley johnson and a first for presumably nothing?

 

[Fez Hammersticks]

This is total desperation.

Kahn is running that franchise into the ground!
