PG: Randy Foye...Sebastian Telfair...Marko Jaric
SG: Gerald Green...Rashad McCants
SF: Corey Brewer...Ryan Gomes
PF: Al Jefferson...Craig Smith...Mark Madsen
C: Mark Blount...Juwan Howard...Theo Ratliff

I really love when you do your depth charts

That's exactly how it'll look for us. We desperately need a big body at the 5 next to Jefferson. Hibbert would be awesome, and I love him. Jefferson & Hibbert though would be allergic to defending outside of the paint.

All in all I am SO excited for the Wolves.

Nice trade for both teams.

OT: Damian, I think that if Al can't play C in West (which I think he can), Howard can't be playing C also, he can't play as a Center even in the East! And Al is bigger and more suited to play C than Juwan.

Now with this KG trade, I can see Kobe being even more mad at Lakers management to not getting anything done. I hope to see Jermaine O'Neal traded to your team, and the Lakers-Celtics games being great games again!

Id love to get a Foye/Mayo back court next season

**Ruff Draft** · 07-30-2007, 05:16 PM

I'd prefer a Rose/Foye.

If Amare Stoudemire and Kurt Thomas can play center then so can Jefferson. There's no good reason why Jefferson and Smith shouldn't start side by side.

Also, I think a lot of people are going to wake up and realize that just because a player is young doesn't mean they are going to be good. Sometimes people act like anyone who is young is going to be good some day. I'd be surprised if more than 3 of our current "young" players ever become above average. Jefferson already is, Smith is close, and I'd guess one of these other unproven guys (Foye, Brewer, or Green most likely) get there too. The others... probably not.

Foye is on the same level as Smith right now. With a guaranteed starting job, and as a primary option we can expect his 10/3/3 average to jump quite a bit. We are waiting on a healthy McCants, and Green is still progressing.

Height is becoming overrated. At 6'10 and 265 Jefferson wont have problems spending time at the 5. Who would give him problems? Yao?

**Avalanche** · 07-30-2007, 05:45 PM

Foye is going to have monster numbers next year if we trade ricky..

i think Foye and Jefferson both have all-star potential, with brewer and smith there as solid contributors to the line up.

the rest of the young guys hopefully develop into consistant role players.

Hopefully my boy Sebastian Telfair can realize his potential in Minnesota. I'm not here to hype him up or anything but he is still only 21 and brings some talent. This summer he seems more committed to getting better and hopefully that transfers to the court. That being said, you guys look real good for the future.

ive always been a big fan of telfair, obviously hes done nothing in the nba but coming into the league i thought he could be good.

if we cut hudson and dont make any more drastic moves id be willing to give him the minutes behind foye to see if he can reach some of that potential, like you said hes still very young... especially for a PG learning the ropes in the nba

our own pick back i believe

**sheefo13** · 07-30-2007, 11:02 PM

Telfair is a disappointment... It is obvious he didn't have a real understanding of the game... He could've really used some college. Now, he is barely making it in the league...
