    Rumors around the league are saying that the T-Wolves are very interested in free agent Juwan Howard. He became a free agent on the 1st of July when his $100 million dollar contract expired. He said that he will take a pay cut to play for a winning team this next year. The $4.9 million dollar exception looks like that is what he will get from the Timberwolves. This is just another stunt by the T-Wolves GM Kevin McHale to try to convince KG that he should retire in Minnesota.

    Just resently the Wolves picked up Sam Cassell in a trade and are close to re-signing Rasho Nesterovic to a long term deal.

    The other teams Howard has looked at are the Lakers and Magic.

    The Wolves would be a very scary team next year with the line-up of Cassell, Wally, KG, Howard, and Nesterovic. I think they will definetly get out of the 1st round this year if they can sign Juwan and re-sign Rasho.

    Well he has narowed it down to the Magic, the Wolves and the Lakers. He is leaning towards the Wolves right now but you never know in the NBA.

    The Wolves should be renamed the Weasels because they always nab players the Lakers want and/or players the Lakers had...

    (Howard, Peeler, Kendall Gill, etc.)
