    Do you think KG will be in the top 5 voting for the MVP if the wolves make the playoffs? What if we win the division?

    i like KG, but i dont think he'll be an MVP candidate, although he'll probably come close. i think d.wades going to be MVP, but the T'Wolves could make the playoffs.

    I dont think he will, I think he's starting to decline. There are too many other players that have a better chance than KG. Dirk, Lebron, Kobe, Wade, Brand and so on. If KG really wants a championship NOW and works his ass off, then maybe theres a slight chance.

    Before KG gets any MVP talks, the Wolves must not only make the playoffs, but they will have to be a top team in the west. With that being said, I don't think KG will be the 2007 MVP

    It was a speculation question. Like if we make playoffs where is he? If we win the division, where is he? I am not saying like o, we are gonna win the divison and KG will win the MVP, i am just curious as to what kind of season it will tkae for KG to be a top candidate? I say if we win the division, and KG gets back to 24 ppg and 5 apg, then yes he is top 5 consideration, but i doubt much less will get him consideration.

    KG's still a top talent in the league, he's automatically going to be in the MVP talk. The people voting for the award have shown they are most impressed with a team's winning percentage and not individual accolades. For KG to win the MVP the TWolves must win the division.

    The best chance for the TWolves to win is for KG to play a majority of his minutes at center. If you look at the other centers in the West, most are athletic PFs and not your traditional back to the basket scorers. KG is more than capable of playing center and he'd dominate most match ups.

    ^^I've been waiting for him to switch over, but i really think that he doesnt want to. His listed hieght is 6'11" because he didnt want any coaches (when we switched coaches) to try him at center. He wants to play all over, not just in the post. He was worried about his future and health if all he did was bang iint he post. In today's game however, KG is bigger, stronger, and wiser. The game is faster, and less about bulk, and more about speed. So, yes i think KG should make the switch to center.

    every once in a while we would go small with wally at the 4 and kg at the 5, and we killed.
