    Source<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor plans to work with frustrated franchise player Kevin Garnett to improve the faltering team during the offseason.First-year coach Dwane Casey's future will be determined after the season.And indications are that vice president Kevin McHale will return next season.As for Garnett's frustration with the Wolves' advancing past the first round of the playoffs just once in his 11 seasons in Minnesota, he's not alone."I'm just as frustrated," Taylor said Monday.Taylor said financial investment in his team, which lost $17 million two years ago and another $12 million last season, won't be a factor in finding players to help Garnett next season. The Wolves are expected to lose money again this year, but nothing of the magnitude of the previous two years.Taylor said Garnett, who has not asked to be traded, would have input on next season's product."I would work with him," he said. "It's finding the right guys. We'll work at it."...</div>I hope it works. I think this team needs a brusier and a PG who can hit clutch shots and play the pick and roll. Stephon Marbury and Shelden Williams seem to fit that mold. The team has it's MLE and it also has a $5 mill trade exception it can use.
