    Why? Summer and winters are more harsh, so yard/field work is that more of a bitch, and minimum wage is like $3/hour less in Minne.

    The entire NBA has been in a race to sign Kirilenko. :MARIS61:

    He's a shell of what he was 7 years ago.

    9 mil a year for a guy who hasn't been in the league in a couple years and is up there in age?

    Kahn is just a fucking idiot. Classic. Now he's going to trade a lottery pick from two years ago and another 1st round pick for a 30 year-old who hasn't put up even a 19 PER in 6 years?

    This is total desperation.

    Kahn is running that franchise into the ground!

    WHUT. 9??? and traded away Wes Johnson who was a #4 pick and a future 1st? Trading away Wes J to clear space, ok I get it. But the 1st? I'm so glad we have Olshey.

    It's beyond ridiculous. Minnesota, that is, not Nikolokolus for getting their Ridikulokulousness.

    Crazy you have to give up a future first for someone to take on an expiring rookie contract for the #4 pick.
