Re: Draft Prospects?
Andy Katz said that he heard a rumor that Spencer Hawes has a promise from us. I don't know if that's true, or if this guy is good, but if it is true he better be.

Re: Draft Prospects?
Here's an article on Noah. A piece of good news.
Quote:
|
"Oh, I would love to play here," said Noah, after an impressive workout this week with the Timberwolves. "Kevin Garnett has been like one of my favorite players growing up, and just being able to play against him [in practice] and get better, and I mean, that would almost be like a dream come true."

Brewer, Thornton, Wright, and Young are all working out on Friday, but for some reason Green isn't. Kinda odd to get all those top SFs in town but not include Green. From what I've heard we're actually really high on Green though, so I would imagine he'll be around at some point.
Green and Noah are my top two guys as well. Both of them can come in and help this coming season.

thats why im so high on green and noah aswell, not just for potential but because i think they will contribute right away.. i hope we at least give green a look at some point.
oh and jux i just meant noah saying he wants to play here doesnt help us if weve made a promise to hawes

There are very strong indicators that one of three Florida players - 6-foot-10 Al Horford, 6-9 Corey Brewer or 6-11 Joakim Noah will be the Timberwolves' top pick at No. 7 in the June 28 NBA draft. The Wolves were especially impressed with Noah's energy during a recent workout.
If the Wolves choose Brewer, they will trade Trenton Hassell.

..... sigh of relief the hawes rumor isnt confirmed just yet lol
noah would be my preffered florida guy...
WHY HAVNT WE HEARD ANYTHING ON GREEN FROM THE WOLVES??? ahh

Re: Draft Prospects?
I don't think Green would be a good pick for us. He is too weak to play the 4 and too slow to play the 3... The wolves don't have room for another tweener.... I like Noah and Brewer right now. I would not be devasted with a Hawes pick but only if Noah and brewer are gone by that pick, which is possible. Brewer would allow us to be able to move Hassell and maybe move Ricky to the bench, since he is one of the better 6th men in the league. The pick I would be most happy with would be Noah....
