    If they're looking for size, then they should look elsewhere, because that's what we need as well.

    That's why we turn to our small-ball lineups so often.

    I saw the thread about Joe Smith coming here (not if there is a God...), but I curious about another deal. If they are looking for size, maybe we could package something for Sczerbiak. I would love to get him here.

    Any thoughts?

    i would trade cato and shandon for wally, if we move up in the draft and take a quality center(if there is such a thing anymore).

    very unlikely the the wolves would send wally to a divition rival.

    What about Cato and a future 1st (and maybe even a 2nd round pick for Wally Z. I think picks would be more valuable to Minn at this point than air!!) And I renew my question - does anyone know whether any restrictions exist on trading picks to the T-Wolves ?

    I don't think there are restrictions on trading picks to the Wolves, but I would bet that other organizations are leery of doing so, even if it meant landing Wally World; David Stern made a "stern" (bad pun) example of the Timberpups.

    And I wouldn't do anything that might help the Wolves. Cato isn't exactly what I would call "help," but his contract is too large to make this trade anyway.

    They'll trade Wally if it gets them a center. Otherwise, he stays put.
