    Twelve years. Twelve years he gave everything he head on the court to try to help his team win. Twelve years he spent as the face of Minnesota basketball and Minnesota sports as well. Twelve years single handedly sending his team to the playoffs 8 times in a row, once to the conference finals the one year he recieved decent help. He has a seasonMVP, an All Star MVP, he has numerous rebounding titles. He is the first player in NBA history to average at least 20 10 and 4 in ten straight seasons. He was never the problem with this team's losing. It is so amazing that he is gone. Aftter all this time I feel like I know him personally. But obviously I do not. He will be forever missed by all Wolves fans and we wish him all the luck in the world towin a well deserved title in Boston.</p>

    It is a shame McHale and company couldn't put a team around KG in the prime of his career. Instead he offered a ridiculous and illegal deal to Joe Smith and lost 5 1st round picks over it. Not to mention a variety of other questionable signings.

    Minnesota might as well start Foye at the 1, Brewer at the 2, and Green at the 3.</p>

    At least they will be exciting to watch with that line up and Big Al in the paint.</p>

    Eh, the Wolves need to find a real point, so they can put Foye at his natural position, the two. He's a much better finisher than he is a distributor.

    I agree, I dont think they can acquire the type of PG they need this season, but I think McHale is already booking flights to Memphis to check out Derrick Rose.</p>

    You can't say he didn't try. He gave it his all. For an NBA player, he's incredibly passionate and loyal. He seems like a good guy.

    It's going to be really weird to see him in another uniform.</p>

    I've never been a twolves fan, but like others have said, it's a shame they couldn't have put a better team around him all those years.</p>

    Don't worry! You are in good hands.
    McHale is just the man to build a good team around Al Jefferson.
    That Garnett thing was just a fluke, he actually knows what he's doing.
