But Jefferson's definately not coming off the bench. Love averaged about a double-double when they made him the starter, and i dont think Minn. is in the position to draft Thabeet for bench depth


Minnesota has six picks currently. They have Gomes and Brewer at SF. They would be best fit to draft another small forward later in the draft or sign one IMO. They could easily come out of the draft with some PG and SG talent. I think they could make a move for Thabeet because I think they have the picks to still address the back court. They are still a couple of years away and that is why I think I would try to pick up Thabeet.

Didnt know about that.

They could draft for depth with those picks in hand.

The Wolves have laid the foundation nicely. If they draft well, they can become the new "it" team, like the Blazers are now. OKC seems to be building up well too, it's just too bad they couldn't get the #1 pick and draft Griffin.

I know, that wouldve been ridiculous.

Westbrook didnt get much press last year but he had a really good year for them.
Westbrook,Durant,Green,Griffin wouldve been insane

Imagine if the Chandler trade had worked out:
1)Westbrook
2)Durant
3)Green
4)Griffin
5)Chandler

Nasty
