Sessions signing begins the post-Rubio backcourt remake
Labor Day is a better time than most to write about the industrious David Kahn, who thus far has made good on his pledge to adopt a blue-collar work ethic toward rebuilding the fortunes of the Wolves franchise. Remarkably, Friday's signing of Ramon Sessions to a 4-year offer sheet worth about $16 million makes more sense in the short term than further out; remarkable because Sessions won't turn 24 until the final week of the 2009-10 season, and because he immediately becomes the best player in Minnesota's backcourt.
The Rubio Matter: Let It Ride
The sports blogs were abuzz with Rubio "news" again today, claiming he'd been bought by a team in Barcelona for the next six years. A few hours later, more reports either debunked that info or declared it premature, but the whole thing gave everyone a chance to reiterate their positions on the matter.
Well, I certainly don't want to be left out.
Kurt Rambis conference call synopsis
Temporarily perched between the Olympic Peninsula and a campsite in eastern Oregon, I was graciously afforded an opportunityby the Wolves' staff to participate in the out-of-town media's conference call with new Wolves' coach Kurt Rambis late this afternoon.
An important little trade
Now the Telfair deal is less troublesome. President of Basketball Operations David Kahn acquired a decidedly sub-mediocre 34-year old backup point guard with an expiring contract in a trade with Oklahoma City the other day, and in terms of short-term tinkering, it was a savvy swap. Unlike the departed Telfair, Atkins shouldn't and won't have any illusions that he is the best long-term answer for the Wolves as a floor general.
Wolves-Clips Trade: Kahn's Housecleaning Continues
First of all, thanks for coming by. It's been nearly a month since I posted, and I'm not sure how often I'll be chiming in before training camp starts in October. But rest assured that however it is structured and wherever I land, I fully intend to provide the kind of coverage and maintain the lively forum longtime readers have seen in previous seasons. So, if possible, be patient and be loyal. Thanks.
