Jeff Green is going to get cut from Team USA this week.

Unsuprising. He can't shoot or rebound so he has no role.

Hopefully between this, his horrible playoffs performance, and the contract status he'll have a better year next season.

I was watching the scrimmage game of the USA team today (where Durant scored 28) and was wondering if we could trade for one of the following players:

Chandler - I always liked him and when he is healthy he is a more than solid center
Love - would be really cool to have him on this team, he would fit just perfectly

Dream on I guess...

Minny is not dealing Love in the Division.

Chandler could be delt. Dallas just got him, and he is a free agent next season. The Thunder have a Mo Peterson and they can offer Dallas a trade execption. If Chandler dosent work out there, he could be delt quick.

I would have liked him to make it, but Its actually a blessing in disguise. It means that he wont get injured in the Worlds.

I hope he uses it as fuel to his fire.

Prove em' wrong Uncle Jeff

I don't think that would be a big issue, since MIN is quite far from contending with the best teams in the division. The problem is that Jeff Green is not nearly enough incentive to get MIN to part with the popular Love.

Green is like a Battier in that they're more attractive to their current teams than they are to other teams.

I was thinking of what will be our rotation this year, assuming that everyone will be healthy.
With our current line-up, this is what I would like to see:

PF - Green 20 min / Ibaka 18 min / Collison 10 min
SF - Durant 38 min / Green 10 min
C - Aldrich 20 min / Collison 10 min / Krstic 10 min / Ibaka 8 min
SG - Harden 28 min / Thabo 20 min
PG - Westbrook 36 min / Maynor 12 min

And I havent even mentioned Peterson and White, who I believe should alsoget 10-10 minutes a night, which is realistic if the team will have a couple of injuries.
