I like this dude, and really think it was Taylors top choice. Going to be very interesting.

Oh, It's at Timberwolves.com I see Taylor bringing some good basketball minds together. Let there be no doubt Mr. Taylor wants a Championship Ring.

Glen was really ripping into Charley towards the end

I downloaded this and put it in my MP3. I listened to it during the bus ride. I like what I hear man, I really hope Kahn is legit in wanting to turn this team into a winner.

Best part of the interview:

A question about McHale's future was the first one he fielded from reporters Friday.

"I had the over-under on that question at seven seconds, so you just got the under," Kahn said, referring to Las Vegas' sports-betting line. "It'd be very easy for me to sit here today and say I'm going to fire Kevin. That would show all of you out here that I have the authority -- which I do -- to do what I want to do. I won't make decisions, though, that are in my best interest. Every time we make a decision, it will be in the best interest of the Minnesota Timberwolves. That's it."

Yeah, I heard the part about firing McHale. So, you think he wants to fire McHale? He came across that way. So let the search for a new coach begin! Think we can get that Isaiah Thomas guy from FIU? He has NBA coaching experience, and I think he was a decent player. He could really turn Telfair into a star.

Maybe he could use his connections with Indiana to poach Larry Bird? :wink:

One thing I really liked was the fact that he said we needed a "star", and they needed to do things to prepare themselves to be able to land that star when the chance is given. I like Big Al and all, but I agree wholeheartedly with him. I feel like McHale thought Big Al was that star, but I think we need another level, a star guard who can also compliment Big Al, but be the alpha dog type, or at least a stud you can consistently count on to come up big.

Timberwolves did set it up very nice for Mr. Khan ....I cant believe Miami took that deal, a first rounder---- Kandi & Ricky. Taylor is the man behind it all. My opinion of him changed dramatically, I see him as very intelligent and I think intelligence gets intelligence, very impressed with this hiring.
