The Rockets need to get make a deal to make Love come to Houston before Kahn gets fired.

Would he take Jordan Hill and a 2nd rounder for Rubio? He seems like he would

I wish the wolves didn't get fined also. Now they're more likely to be pissed and Kahn may be fired sooner. Bad for the rest of the league! lol

"Too much marijuana"?

So Kahn wouldn't have seen any problem with it had Beasley smoked just the right amount?

Maybe Khan is pissed Beasley wouldn't share with him.

Timberwolves fans' reaction:

Quote:
I'm still completely baffled by the contrast between the two moments:

In the first, Kahn said he wasn't at liberty to discuss Jonny Flynn's hip because of HIPAA -- which certainly seemed like an unusual claim when it comes to professional sports. People talk injuries all the time, and Flynn's doesn't seem like a touchy issue for any particular reason.

In the second, he let fly with the Beasley-smoke-too-much-weed thing.

It just doesn't seem possible for the same person to say both those things inside of a few minutes. "I don't want to talk about what's for dinner, Mom's pretty sensitive about her meat loaf. On the flip side, my sister's a real slut, but she's trying to keep her pants on!" I mean....
Quote:
Would be nice if this led to fewer interviews and a more measured approach to what he says. I am not hopeful in this regard.
Quote:
I'm kind of astonished that they chose to fine him for that but not for calling Webber, an NBA employee, a penis.
Hilarious

Kevin Love is a good PF, but he is redundant. The Rockets need to develop Patrick Patterson.

I'm glad that Kahn got fined. Putting your players down and then expecting them to perform at a high level is silly.

Trying to understand kahn is like trying to understand a woman, there are a million mixed messages. He says Beasleys immature but then says he's good to have. Then he says he's too young, but then goes on to its good that hes young. Then he says Beasley does too much marijuana, but then says he would get high with all the stress.

Kahn has pulled off one of the most miraculous feats ever: he makes fans miss the genius off Kevin McHale.
