Whoever wants that job might want to get three years on his deal because not much figures to change in Minnesota before then.

I liked this line because of it's implications for the future of the Clippers. Let's hope the Wolves suck for at least three years - that takes us to the 2012 draft, when the pick from the Jaric-Cassell trade becomes unrestricted.

Crazy long...

I’m guessing it will be some sort of record eventually. By the time that pick happens and the trade is complete, Cassell could be 42, almost 43. He could be traded for a guy 19 or 20. The first ever trade of a guy twice as old as one of the players he was traded for.
