Darren Wolfson ‏@DarrenWolfson

Told just now the #Twolves have at least one wing player coming in tomorrow for a look. Working on who that is. Told it's NOT C-D-R.

Isn't he a PG?

He's basically a combo guard. He's 6'3" and has some perimeter game and obviously some ball handling. Looking at how Adelman likes to use multiple guards that can handle, we could use him off the bench and perhaps his size would be less of an issue there.

Shrug to most of these names (although I don't hate the idea of James Anderson). Just make a trade and bring in an actual rotation player.

I'd be okay with that, honestly.

What about injury exception for Lee?

Can we get another roster spot?

I would like to sign two guys. Delonte and Anderson. Or Delonte and CDR. Or CDR and Anderson.

I like trying to figure out who the #Twolves are bringing in, but a reminder: it'll be a non-guarantee, so guy could be here for 2 weeks.

What is wrong with CDR

Sounds like he probably wants a guaranteed deal.

Seems like Anderson is probably the guy they're looking at. Cut from the Spurs but they are super deep on perimeter players.

Hopefully. He was playing well (albeit in limited minutes) for them.

Darren Wolfson ‏@DarrenWolfson
SOURCE: Lazar Hayward will be in town tomorrow for a tryout with the #Twolves. More on http://1500espn.com in the morning.

Darren Wolfson ‏@DarrenWolfson
@jzenk42 Redd wants guaranteed $$. They don't want to do that at the current time. Whoever they sign will get a non-guaranteed deal.

Darren Wolfson ‏@DarrenWolfson
Working on more. It's possible Hayward is in tomorrow trying out against others. I just know for sure Hayward's here tomorrow.

Please no Lazar

...Why? Dude gave us nothing last time he was here, IDC if he's here only for a week or two, I do not want to see this guy in a wolves uni again..

I still want Afflalo or Redick badly

Post #35 » by **Calinks** » Fri Dec 21, 2012 8:56 am

LOL Hayward.

Man... Whatever, I have faith in Adleman to bring someone that fits. I think Howard was a good pickup he just got jacked.

southern wolf · Post #36 » by **southern wolf** » Fri Dec 21, 2012 11:06 am

Hayward?! Do not want.

What about Al Thornton? He had some good years with the Clippers. Seems like he's too good to be out of the league.

Which free agents play the best defense?

We don't want to overtax Rubio yet, Shved can't keep up this pace, and Ridnour and Barea are .. shall we say .. defensively limited?

Klomp I don't know if you're serious, but I'd be okay with it. He was a great player in college and toiled here under Rambis as just the worst possible situation for a rookie. Then he sat OKC bench. Kid might actually have some game as a 9-10th man and has always had some range. At this point I just read the name Jamario Moon, so I'm thinking we must be no stone unturned territory.

“@DarrenWolfson: The #Twolves are getting lots of calls from agents. One guy who wants to be here: Mickaël Gelabale. Has a Europe out starting Jan. 1.”
