Interesting.

Looks liek McHale will be making another trade before the season starts to trim the roster.

I have both Ricky Davis [personal favourite] and Mark Blount in my FNBA roster [obviously on the LU comp]

Not all that happy with the trade to be honest. I would have preferred Ricky D stay in Minny and get as many shots as he wants rather then be behind Wade and Shaq.

Isn't Blount now stuck behind Shaq and Mourning?? Or will he play a bit more PF?? Ricky Davis owners should be spewing...

Al Jeff should get a few more shots. I just picked up Gerald Green for my fantasy team. He had a faily decent season for the Celts with some minutes. Here's hoping he improves...

Apparently Walker's going to be bought out. Wouldn't suprise to to see Ricky come off the bench for about 30 a game...

The old Marc Cuban clean-out-the-house trade...

Mchale done a great job too

Howard = 1 year
Ratliff = 1 year
Buckner = 2 years
Doleac = 1 year
Walker = 2 years
Madsen = 3 years
Jaric = 4 years

besides Jaric hes got rid of all the crap contracts we had and replaced them with 2 year deals

leaves us with next year

c-Draft one Hibbert possibly
pf-Jefferson
sf-Brewer
sg-Mccants
pg-Foye

SMith
Gomes
Richard
Jaric
Buckner

and i would probley sign Ratliff up for 1 more season

I have Blount in my team, this move is going to be great. It is hard to see Shaq and Zo playing through the whole season and he will backup Haslem aswell.

Blount is pretty rubbish. He's a similar player to Doleac and wouldn't be suprised if he didnt simply take Doleac's role on the bench.

I agree with JC fan.

Foye, McCants, Gomes, Jefferson, Ratliff.

Looking to the future the wolves could have a nice team with some very good young prospects in Jefferson, Foye, McCants, Greene, Brewer... the list goes on.
