Wherever he goes will immediately become the team I follow the most next season besides the Wolves. I love the guys game, and I think he was unappreciated by a lot of fans here over the last year. Hopefully he'll be able to have some help for once in his career.

Love better be working his ass off.

Yea I said that I would follow Foye and Miller on the wolves and I did to a degree but I don't like them no where near the level of Al. I will MOST DEF watch whatever team Al is on. hopefully it's a good team.

With all the rumours this year, this might be a bit premature.

I think this is a response to what I said. I was told 100% he was gone. I am scared of anything that is 100%

See sig.

You will be missed Big Al, if and when you move. He better net us an Allstar. Seriously, he was the centerpiece of the KG deal, how do we not get an All Star caliber player in return? If it's some B.S. expiring to help us sign Rudy Gay I'm going to be let down. If this team isn't impressive by Training Camp, I might need to switch teams (or sports) or lay off the Wolves obsession for awhile.

Where ever Al goes, I still think he'll become an All Star someday (depending on how the PF/C situation is in the conference).

SO DUMB TO TRADE HIM NOW.

Particularly if the plan is Wes Johnson at #4 instead of Cousins.

Wrong guy to trade Kahn. I know the circumstances are different and there is no player-coach beef what so ever but this reminds me for some reason when the Bucks had to choose between Ray Allen and Michael Redd and we are choosing between Big Al and Love. He's gonna regret it if he does trade Al I promise you.

Agreed.... Big Al is still my favorite Timberwolf and I will seriously hate Kahn if he sends him for pennies on the dollar

Umm, yeah, but only if this were actually an appreciation thread and not a throw Al under the bus thread.

You think that's bad? In the Detroit thread, I am quoted before I even posted the post. So someone is reading my mind! ahhh!

This thread insinuated that he is gone, and he isn't. I came on the board and freaked out thinking I missed something, when I missed NOTHING AT ALL!

People are seriously afraid of Big Al owning the Wolves every time he plays against them? lol.
Opposing frontcourt players absolutely LOVE playing against him, he will score on you, but he will let you score at will too, even if you're old/washed-up.
