Vinny will just break your hearts because he can still play this game and was an all-star back when for a reason but unfortunately now he can't stay sober long enough to help anyone.

i dont think the drinking will be bakers downfall on the wolves, its the fact hes too out of shape (not necissarily fat, just unfit) and just doesnt have a lot of moves left in his arsenal and would have to be content playing 5 minutes of hustle a game.

Baker might be able to hustle for five minutes a game, but I doubt the Wolves would be willing to pay the cost of his bartender travelling with the team.

Your sardonic humor, you.

This guy sucks, has sucked since 2000 and he always will. He never ever left the bench in Houston really, and what minutes he did play, he was worthless. Good luck with the aquisition I guess? lol

9 minutes and 3 points in pre season against the bucks, at least they are giving him the minutes to see whether hes worthy of a spot or not

Vin Baker is a 35-year-old who has played in all or parts of 13 NBA seasons, but he says this year it all feels new. He has been a starter, an All-Star, an Olympian, but now he just wants to be a part of the team.

Baker has been on top, and he has been on the other end. Now he just wants to be here, at least for a while.
