    Can't wait to see him do some damage in Minny. I could see him breaking out for a 15 and 10 season.

    He is 34 right now and will be 35 in november.

    The last time he averaged 10 rpg was 9 years ago when he was 24/25.

    It just seems a little high for Vin @ 34.

    It's only a matter of time before Gin Baker falls off the wagon living and playing for Minnesota. All it's going to take is getting snowed in for one night with a bottle of Southern Comfort.

    its funny how they say they wanna win a ring but then they make these half assed moves. In reality baker is gonna add little to this team.

    Either make some real moves or let kg go!

    Or more than likely, he'll pull a Shawn Kemp.

    Let's just hope he doesn't pull an Eddie Griffin.
