What I like about Chandler: He can catch the ball. He can defend.Originally Posted by Nowitness41Dirk
At least he's not owed a ton of money and they got rid of Carrol? *shrugs* Better than Shaq, at least.
[h1]Highest Paid Player On Wolves Makes Less Than $5M[/h1]
Jul 13, 2010 3:55 PM EST
With their trade of Al Jefferson, the Wolves no longer have a player on their roster that will make at least $5 million for the 10-11 season.
Most other teams have at least one player who makes eight-figures annually. The Raptors and Thunder are the only other teams that do not currently have an eight-figure earner.
The highest paid player on Minnesota is Michael Beasley, who will earn $4.962 million in 10-11. Martell Webster and Darko Milicic are ranked second and third on the roster in terms of annual salary and will make $4.8 million and $4.325 million respectively.
...
T'Wolves Beat Writer's take on both Al Jefferson and Michael Beasley trades:
So here's basically the deal the Wolves have put together in the last week:
Big Al and two second-round draft picks for Michael Beasley, two first-round picks and that big trade exception, which can be used in the next year to take back a player with a contract as much as $13 million without having to give back any salaries in return.
Theoretically, that allows the team to be shoppers for a player on fire sale in this supposed economically strapped league anytime between and now and next February's trading deadline or next June's draft.
OK, so...
Do you like that deal?
It's not a big difference. I prefer Diaw because he is a better inside scorer and passer; Harrington can score but he'll be coming to Dallas to backup Dirk at PF in 20 minutes per game most likely (unless they find a way to deal Marion so Harrington can get more minutes at backup SF too). Hell, he won't even be getting minutes at center like he did in NY with Chandler here now.Originally Posted by Steve Cash

With all those contracts under 6 million, here's David's pitch to CARMELO ANTHONY, AND! Chris Paul!
Kahn: Carmelo, come on man, we have all these PG's for you to play with! You literally just have to pick ONE, we have so many to choose from! Plus look, we have a couple of PF's in Love and Beasley! Beasley! He's the #2 pick! He was drafted higher than you were! AND DARKO! He was drafted before you too! You hear that Melo?! This guy is golden if he was drafted before you! We've been waiting for you Carmelo, come on over to Minnesota, the weather is great!
Kahn: Oh wait, Chris Paul?! You're a free agent too? We didn't know! Come join our team! We have tons of point guards for you to practice with! You must love point guards since you're one right? Man we have Sessions, we have Flynn, we have Ridnour, and then we got that Spanish kid Ricky Ricardo coming over soon! Just you wait! You'll LOVE IT here!
