I don't believe it. Sounds too good. We have nothing baring Yao and T-Mac to trade. Sam had a fine game against the Mavs tonight. Without him KG and the rest of the team would struggle mightly.
haha this is one of those "i heard it from some guy while washing my hands in the men's room at the toyota center" rumors.
Sina.com is in China.... somehow I doubt they are going to be breaking trades before anyone else when they are in a different hemisphere.
I think that "rumor" acutally started here. Basically somebody suggested that since the Wolves may deal Cassell and Sprewell for Kidd and Mourning, we may get Cassell for our TE and some filters.
that would be awesome but i doubt its going to happen. why would the wolves trade him to us and make us a contender??
Doubtful. He has expressed no desire to return to Houston, and has a history of not playing well with "certain types" of head coaches.
Doesn't he have to be an ex-knick to be playing with us? The idiot Van Gundy would never trade for him.
nice find. as for the possibilities of a trade, it could be one that minnesota is willing to do.....remember before orlando signed him, the twolves were pursuing Jhoward hard. cassell though a really good player, is aging and has made known his contract demands. they have a good point gaurd in troy hudson backing sam up, whom they have invested in long term.
cassell would be ideal for the rockets. if we somehow do get him then there should be no more excuses for our offense besides jvg's coaching.
