    Fact: they traded his good friend Cassell and if they do as bad as they did last year I can see him demanding a trade.

    F or F: KG will win MVP

    Fiction. He is known to be volatile, he may lose his cool, but Garnett is there to slap some **** into him. Garnett commands authority, Mcants will listen.

    Fact or Fiction: Wally is overrated.

    Fact - The TWolves overpaid for him and have been shopping him around ever since they made that mistake.

    Fact or Fiction - Marko Jaric will prove Sam Cassell wrong, and have a strong season with the TWolves?

    Fiction - He has a good relationship with KG, and they work well together on the court. I forget the exact quote, but KG said Griffin was "godsend" for the TWolves last season.

    Fact or Fiction?
    Ebi will finally get a chance to play consistent minutes for the TWolves?

    Fiction: I still get the feeling that he has not proven to be consistent in their needs. Does show he can score and occasionally rebound, but is stilllllllll found to be out of place on defense and sets.

    Fact Or Fiction: McHale will be let go either during or at the end of the season?

    Fact. I don't see him staying for any longer.

    F/F - Rashad McCants will be on the all-rookie first team.

    Fact - IF he starts. There are very few options on the team as is, throw him in the mix in the begining, I see some promising things with the bulk of the attention going from Garnett to Wally.

    F/F - Kevin Garnett finishes his career in Minnesota. Why or why not?

    I'm pretty sure Kevin Garnett will finish his career in Minnesota because he's the franchise player and he helped make them to the playoffs for the past couple of years. He should love this place a lot since its also where he grew up and matured as a basketball player.

    Fact or Fiction

    The Wolves will try to make a package of Wally & fillers for expiring contracts like penny or tim thomas to be under the cap next year to attract free agents(hopefully a star player) to help Kevin Garnett.

    Fiction. I don't really see that happening. Garnett has a really big contract and add that to the rest of the squad and you can't really go under the cap much to get that many good free agents to help Garnett out. Furthermore, the team is in "rebuilding" ever since they traded Cassel and I think they are concentrating more on their youngsters. Also, I don't think Isiah Thomas will do that trade anyway. He should know his mistake by now and just let the oldies go.

    Fact or Fiction : Eddie Griffin will have a breakout year this upcoming season.

    FICTION: Merely speculation, but I don't believe that Griffin will do much more than he did last year. Drop a couple bombs, block a decent amount of shots. But!, until he heeds my advice and spend the off-season working on his post game, he will not reach full potential. I would grade his offensive game average for a guy his size. He can dunk, he can stroke the 3, but he can't create.

    Fact or Fiction: McHale regrets the decision of trading Sam Cassell? Pride aside.

    fiction: he did not like cassell and wanted to get a younger and better PG

    Fact. KG will be so frustrated with his team mates incompetence and request for a trade if they screw up this coming season again. One man cannot carry the team. Even LeBron gets help from big Z.

    Fact or Fiction : The Wolves will add a couple of quality players this coming season through trades.
