    Does this mean the rockets aren't getting sessions?

    Wolves now have Rubio and Sessions, both guys rumored to be on the Rockets list.

    yeah...sessions is pretty much gone... :(

    I really dont get how Morey couldn't have done this...we've got our whole MLE available and we still don't have a consistent all-round PG that's proven himself in the league and comes at great value...man :eek:

    Does the Minny signing of Sessions mean that the Rockets are going after Sessions? :eek:

    Rockets have around $2M of their MLE left after signing Andersen, Taylor, and Budinger.

    Wait, Ramon Sessions? The Rockets should go after him! Sign and trade! :rolleyes:

    On a side note, another PG for the TWolves! Yay! I guess they needed a fifth one to replace Rubio...

    Agreed. Minnesota is going to be so unbelievably awful next year plus 4 yrs/$16M is a steal. If I were Milwaukee I would definitely explore my options and think about matching.

    On the flip side, David Khan needs a respectable transaction like this to happen in the worst way. As it stands, his first offseason in charge was a complete and utter disaster.

    If he goes to Minny it probably means Rubio's rights are available....I would not mind Morey trying to get his rights.

    Sessions is supposed to be really good with 'superstar PG' potential.

    Why didn't anyone offer him their full MLE?

    I think Kahn is hoarding PG's. He simply can't pass up a quality PG at a bargain price.

    Obviously, he's not as good nor has as much potential as he is 'supposed' to. If he did, someone would have offered him more money.

    The Wolves are building a solid team. Depending on Jefferson's health, I think they will be good.

    Really? I think they're a 15-20 win club after Kahn's first offseason in charge. After adding Sessions their PG rotation will be decent but other than that they have no bench, no wing players that can create their own offense and Damien Wilkens is their starting SG.

    Maybe if/when Rubio comes into the picture in a couple years they might be decent but in the next year or two I think they're going to be complete bottom-dwellers.

    but he won't be coming to the nba for at least 2 years...even then he might do a "Tiago Splitter" and stay in Spain as he gets offered a gigantic contract that leaves his rookie scale contract looking like nothing...plus who knows how a rookie PG can contribute to a championship while Yao is still effective.

    You have to remember Clutchfans is also the Ramon Sessions FanClub Forum. There must be mass hypnosis involved because only that explains why so many people are in love with the guy.
