    1. That never happened, he had contracts in Spain that the Wolves couldn't (by NBA rules) buy him out of. He came over as soon as he could.

    2. He loves it here. He's spent his offseason kicking it in Minnesota

    3. Look how happy he is.

    Sorry you lost Andre Miller. You'll get over it someday. Have fun with Jonny Flynn. He's great....

    nothin wrong with brandon rush, courtney lee, oj mayo, or danny green, all fit our system.
    If batum doesnt work out then we are going to trade for iggy.

    He spent two days there. Nice try, though

    Funny how you keep bringing up Rubio, the PG who suffered a major knee injury. But, finishing 5-21 last season, I guess you have to grasp for straws.

    With a healthy Kevin Love, no reason to tank without their draft pick, no coaching/locker room turmoil, the Wolves finished the season at 5-21!

    5-21!

    Don't worry Blazer fans, CJ Watson is still available to play PG for you.

    LOL at the uneducated. No schools in Minne, eh?

    Civilized European? So was Rubio not a civilized Euro, and that's why he absolutely wanted nothing to do with Minne? Just checking.

    Two days? He's frequently seen at Twins games and Lynx games. One game in particular he was sitting out in the left field bleachers eating ice cream with a bunch of fans.

    He's been rehabbing in Sota as well.

    And yet you only finished two games above us. How horrible were you the first 40 games of the season?

    Maybe after the Blazers hit the luxury tax they can have an auction... Pay to play PG for the Blazers! If you ask the NBA nicely maybe they will count the proceeds towards you being able to sign anyone in the future.

    Minnesota is never going to make an offer suck it! We match Batum we have a Big three and a good SG and a future Allstar PG.
