We are never trading our cornerstone.

Thanks a lot Daddy. I took that about as well as 15 kicks to the face.

I was pwned.

That's some great stuff Ricky is doing and he should be praised for it.

Now he just needs to show that type of respect and selflessness on the court. If he could do that, he would be absolutely amazing.

Oh wow, leave it up to RT to say this:

“It’s doubtful that I will ever be a Timberwolf,” Rybak said, “but it is likely one day that Ricky could be a mayor.”

hahahaha

Good article though. I am enjoying how everyone on this board is hating RDazzle less & less each day. And yall wanted to just get rid of him for basically nothing. Shame on you all that said that. He will probably lead our team in scoring and assists this year.

Perhaps so, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's the right guy to \"lead\" our rebuilding efforts into the future. On top of that, his contract is up. We'll see how much money he wants...

Like I said earlier, unless a nice deal comes up, keep him until ya can't afford him. He's obviously a better option than McCants or Buck, and in my mind a better option than Green.

Fair enough, that is a good point Daddy.

However, I wouldn't resign him to anymore than the $7 million per year that he is currently getting. If he wants more, trade him or let him go. And... cut McCants regardless.

I've always been against getting rid of Ricky just to get rid of him. I was a big proponent of the \"Ricky for Jack and Pryzbilla\" trade that would never happen, just because it would've given us some young players to build the team around.

However, that was before we traded KG for 9,000 players. We don't need any more youngsters or any 1 for 2 trades at the moment for sure. I'm with CW - resign him, but only for the right price. Either that or use him or Theo to cash in at the deadline.

That seems to be the most likely scenario doesn't it?? Dazzle may be Mayor someday but his playing days in MN seem to be #'d...

I think McHale should sign RT to an \"Honorary\" contract (guaranteed of course) for his support of the twolves....thoughts?
