Sprewell could not be reached for comment about the trade. Knicks GM Scott Layden and Don Chaney left messages that weren't returned. Even the 'Wolves hadn't made contact yesterday with Sprewell. "His agent said Latrell's on vacation, on his boat in Lake Michigan," Minnesota team spokesman Paul Thompson said. SOME THINGS NEVER CHANGE!
But Sprewell's publicist, Marvet Britto, told The Post, "He'll give 100 percent for the Minnesota organization the same way he gave it to the Knicks. It's exciting for him to join a player of Kevin Garnett's caliber. This is exciting for him. It's a new start in a new city. He looks forward to joining a consistent playoff contender." THIS GUY IS LYING, SPREE NEVER WANTED TO LEAVE NY FOR THE PERKS AND NIGHT LIFE.
Szczerbiak said he'll gladly move to small forward to accommodate Sprewell at shooting guard. YEA, BECAUSE WALLY COULDN'T GUARD A WALL, HE ISN'T ACCOMMODATING ANYONE, IT BENEFITS HIM FROM BEING A GHOST ON DEFERNSE AGAINST OTHER SG IN THE LEAGUE. ROFL
that last point i will agree on
Minny has an intersting mix of players that all demand the rock.
The upgrades in having Vet ballplayers on this team almost guarantees a second round playoff berth.....No excuse here, second and third shooting options are now in place.
Ice, did the moderator eradicate Ares only for the ICEMAN cometh?
Minny has a solid 5 but, other than Hudson, who's coming off the bench?
Minny won't be playing no defense this yr just watch and see. Flip with do just that, when he experiences these guys all wanna shoot the rock and when they don't get it (only one ball) their defense will be slacking. Cassell and Wally playing D? And some laugh at Houston lack defense.
nah bobby i dont think ares did anything to eradicate the account.
tell you the truth i think the moderator likes iceman,ares and the daily news crew the suspects the clones, we stir the pot around here. it was deader than qusay before we got here.
swish dont worry about the bench you got atalent like that you can get some fill ins to play off the bench felipe lopez,shaq of the Mac, anyone cause you can mix bench players with starters and keep a competatice team on the floor. they got spree for a player thats retired Great deal.
Twolves play a zone on D, and have enough offense to get away with cassel and Wally how any one can say they have not upgraded is preposterous.
if you can hate on the twolves off season and praise the knicks you just stupid.
Ok ice you making false aquisations already, nobody said they didn't upgrade, I said they will suffer on defense with Wally and Cassell. Who,s hating? I'M A KNICKS FAN, THAT IS WHO I GIVE MY ALLEGIANCE TO, Not some LA Faker bandwagon GUY becuz the WORLD'S STRONGEST MAN(SHAQ) PLAYS FOR THEM.

jada jada jada, still slinging bean pies for the sake of posting.
childish retort.
you havent advanced much from 4th grade.
"If Kevin Garnett is pleased by the Timberwolves' acquisition of Latrell Sprewell last week, the team's star player hasn't personally expressed it to Sprewell. "I left Kevin a message, but he hasn't called me back," Sprewell said Thursday during a visit to Minneapolis. "But Sam (another new Timberwolf) Cassell told me that Kevin told him that he was happy that I'm here." ' Saint Paul Pioneer Press. UT OH,if you ask me seems that spree just might come there with the big head and KG knows how spree like to steal his teammates shots.Question: Wos gonna take the last shot in big games for the T-WOLVES SPREE OR GARNETT?
I'm going out a find me a #8 Wolves jersey, man. That's all I got to say...
... and Swish, they got Ervin Johnson as a backup center... and he's better than anyone we have... they also signed Laker stiff Madsen.
Ervin Johnson is better than any one we have?

THIS GUY SUCKS
He doesn't suck and he is better than any CENTER we have... KT is NOT a center but, you don't seem to understand that either.
We don't play any center A consistent 17 min per game , so how do you make that comparison
