Key to Wolves' draft: best fit with Jefferson

NBA draft day is here at last, and with the Timberwolves, there still are more questions than answers.

[Talent first]

The Wolves need to draft the best player period. Build around Jefferson? Sounds good but the Wolves spent a decade trying to build around KG and where did it get them?

Willl all you people stop over anylizing this draft thing. Two power forwards who are willing to kick some tail would be alot better than any of the lazy sob's at center that we've had in our arena so far. Go with Love and shut up. Winners win it's as simple as that.

[Khang]

Trade the 3rd pick along with Antoine and Rashad to the grizzlies for the 5th pick, Miller, Milicic and Lowry then draft the best player availible at the 5. You get a point guard who knows how to play with Foye from there Villanova days in Lowry, A 15+ ppg three point specialist in Miller, and a legit young center who can block shots and rebound, plus the 5th pick which could be used on Love, Lopez, The Italian, Augustin, Bayless or even Alexander.

[Duane]

One thing is for sure. No matter who the Wolves draft, the person will never develope to be a player of any consequence (unless, like KG, he is subsequently traded). Name one player that the Wolves have ever developed?
Speaking of Mc Lose, does anyone doubt that he would ever have gone to the Hall of Fame had it not been for Bird? Look what happened to Mc Lose after Bird retired.

I think that the Wolves should keep the #3 pick reguardless. Anyone of those top 3s. picks should work for us. If we want a center, we can select one in the second round. Because we have top 4 picks in the second round anyway. I don't think we will be in the playoffs this year. If the Wolves want to trade they should try package 2 second pick for late first round or something. Next year we gonna have 2 first round draft picks, so can build off that. Instead of trading this year and it might cause us a first round in next year draft. Please Pick O. J. Mayo, so the fan can have something to look forward to, or fill the seats this year.

Think of the fans for a change and select MAYO. We, frankly don't care who you like because you have not shown us in the past that you can pick quality stars. Also, if you do happen to land a star player, YOU TRADE THEM AWAY!!! Get a clue Mr. McHale. Us fans are sick of you.

[Brad]

If they draft other then Mayo, I promise you the fans will stay home, for once give the fans what they want and deserve, you are making yourselves look more and more like morons as each years passes, this doen't even include the stupid idiotic Joe Smith era that killed us but the fams still came, even after you p-ssed out draft picks away by your under the table dealings. Please don't mess this up, I really hope Glen Taylor reads these. The fans would fare better at draft day then KM.

[Steve Hettinger]

Mayo... unless by the grace of the NBA gods, Beasley falls to 3.

The wolves better not be stupid! They better draft Brook Lopez! if dey draft Majo... whats going to happen to McCants (who will b mad and want to b traded, locker room touble, and wont help the really need which is an anchor/help 4 big al)? Mccants had a solid season last yr and will only get better...Love is a PF which da Wolves already got n big Al. What they need is a C! Brook Lopez! da wolves got dey pg n roye, got dey sg n maccants, got dey sf (defensive stopper) n brewer, and got dey franchise playa n big AL. now dey need a C = Brook Lopez... da west is the land of the bigs! and big AL needs help down low, Foye and Mccants got da premiter... u win championships n da post and Big Al needs help draft Lopez!
A lineup of:

pg: Foye (distributer)
sg: Mccants (shooter)
sf: Brewer (defensive stopper)
pf: Al (low post scorer)
c: B. Lopez (anchor)

dats a solid lineup dat will last for yrs to come and unit da T-wolves Franchise!
