Im not sure if that was the rumor but the Lakers would've raped the Wolves if that deal went through.

I didn't think you were too serious, lol. You are correct though, the Wolves would be getting raped. That would be a horrible trade.

Looks like Dwane Casey is the new Man.. I don't know who he is and what style he'll bring..

I was reading the Star Tribune. All the writers seemed to think he was the best choice. They say he is big into discipline and really just wants a shot to prove he can be a great coach.

Im not sure what to think about this. I dont mind that he doesnt have any experience but I dont like that McHale said at the beginning of the coaching search that he was going to bring in a coach with experience etc... Also, part of me thinks they hired him because he was the cheapest candidate because they still have to pay Flip's contract until he finds a new team. If this is true then I think we are headed down the wrong track here. I hope he is a good defensive coach because we really need to get better on D if we hope to contend at all.

He made a comment about liking the sonics upbeat offense but he said he is a more defensive oriented coach

I personally found the McCants pick to be a bit weird considering he seems to have a lot of the same attitude that Spree does. IMO the pick wouldve been Warrick had Fred Hoiberg not just had heart surgery. I dont think there is any chance of seeing Latrell in a T-Wolves uni anytime soon and keeping Sam wouldnt bother me too much. I dont expect any major move/addition to be made however.
