Is it just me or does he have a touch of Evan "Kermit" Turner voice?

@MNTimberwolves: Kahn said there will be more moves at the SG/SF spot. "We're not done"

Post #8 » by **Calinks** » Wed Jun 27, 2012 7:25 pm

Kahn said we may still trade into the draft.

Derrick Williams had fractures in his nose and they didn't know. He got it fixed and his breathing was better. He has slimmed down some and is working hard in the off-season.

Denied having any interest in Shved

More like he was denying that they were talking to a guy under contract and that nobody from the Timberwolves said that they were interested. He seemed to get a little heated about that, so I take that as a confirmation that he's on the radar.

I was a bit surprised that he even confirmed the Roy interest, although he's not under contract, so I suppose it's not terribly shocking.

6/25

The Wolves are doing a lot of nit-picking with agents. Sources maintain that they have had constant dialogue with European free agent guard Alexey Schved and his agent. Scout Pete Philo, based in Europe, is said to be a big fan. Schved, like Roy, is free to sign right now. ESPN.com

5/17

In an interview with Sports.ru in Moscow on Tuesday, Shved's agent Obrad Fimic said while no official NBA offers are on the table at this moment, five teams have shown interest in his client -- Atlanta, Houston, Oklahoma City, Minnesota and Memphis. As it stands, Shved remains under contract with CSKA but all signs point to him making the jump to the NBA, despite Fimic refuting a recent report that his client was asking upwards of $10 to $12 million on a three-year deal. Ridiculous Upside

Don't think it's a big deal to talk about an NBA free agent that's under contract with a euro team. Or is it?

Like that Kahn says we aren't done. I'm sure that the draft will be fairly quiet for us unless Derrick ends up being moved, but doubtful he sells low on him.

Zgoda mentioned the Wolves are looking at Roy/Crawful/Mayo and maybe Courtney Lee.

Kahn said Derrick is at around 233, wants to be down to 225 hopefully.

I don't know... I'm thinking FIBA probably has some rules.

The way he denied it, confirmed it. He said something like 'I didn't know we had interest in him'. I think with all the rumors, maybe not being sure how much he can talk with him and perhaps even ongoing negotiations he dropped a hint and then it was taken literally. JZ, I don't think he is the sharpest tool in the Shved.
