Telfair will be suspended (probably 2 games only) 1 Month, 1 Week ago Howls: 15  
The league is expected to suspend him for the gun incident from April 2007, when he was still in Boston. Probably the minimum 2 games. Well, he has to pay for his past mistakes. Hopefully this one will finally close the chapter of his underachieving first couple of years in the NBA and allow him to improve this season.

Wolves will have to waive Booth and sign Ollie so Foye has a servicable backup capable of givingat least 10mpg. We can't force Foye to play all 48 minutes the first two games.

He's actually going to get suspended for that still? Wow... lame.

Do you have a link or anything about this? Also, I agree Foye definitely should NOT play all 48 minutes at PG those first two games. We'd lose for sure.

Telfair suspended for April 07 incident

From Mitch Lawrence/NY Daily News:
(www.nydailynews.com/sports/basketball/20...er_and_c.html?page=1)
Sebastian Telfair will start the season on the sidelines due to a suspension that will be announced sometime before his Timberwolves open the season Oct. 29 against Sacramento.


Telfair was sentenced last month to three years' probation for misdemeanor possession of a loaded .45-caliber handgun, speeding and driving without a license in Westchester in April 2007. He was a member of the Celtics at the time of his arrest. Since his case has been resolved, his suspension by the NBA is automatic. The league needs only to determine how many games he'll serve, with sources indicating it will be for a minimum of two.


Telfair re-signed last summer with Minnesota for three years, $7.5 million. He's projected to come off the bench, with Randy Foye penciled in as the starter. This will be his first suspension, although he's had two other notable brushes with the law since making the jump to the pros from Lincoln High School.

Are you saying I can't give CW a hard time?

Oh, pooh!
