View Full Version : Minnesota interested in MORE non-black players

David Kahn loves talented players, as long as they ain't black:

First:


If Pekovic doesn't get $12 million a year, the hunch is he'll come close. That makes me wonder, if Kahn can find the right replacement, whether he'll pull the trigger.

That could be Cleveland's Anderson Varejao. According to two league sources, the Wolves and Cavaliers have had discussions, albeit brief, about Varejao.

Take a lot to get him.


And Second:


Sources say the Wolves are big fans of Orlando's J.J. Redick.

An unrestricted free agent this summer, the indication is he's going somewhere. The Wolves are the worst 3-point shooting team in the NBA, so Redick is an obvious fit.

It'd take forward Derrick Williams, plus a future first-round pick just to get into the discussion. There will be plenty of teams after Redick.

The best bet is that Kahn does something, but it may not be until the week, or even the day of the deadline.

Kahn......you can't have Steve Novak.....don't even ask. :no:






Go white people. :banana:.........I mean, that's racist. :no: ............but white people rule!:banana:

A lottery pick in Williams + a future 1st for Reddick? Far out, that's a steep price to pay.

Reddick would be a decent fit.

Do not trade Pek :no:

Don't see why Orlando would want Derrick Williams. They have Davis, Harkless and Nicholson, of whom the last two are their future.

They recently signed Lazar Hayward, so I guess your "David Kahn loves talented players, as long as they ain't black" theory holds true.

Good move in my opinion. It caters to their demographic. As long as they have a majority white team, even if the team is mediocre, they'll sell tickets.

Attendance increased last season thanks to the addition of a flashy rookie and HOF coach. The Wolves had similar attendance numbers with squads of almost all black players in the past. Despite having a mostly white team, home attendance was down this season until Rubio came back. The "white players sell more tickets in MN" argument has no evidence to back it up.

So does Love, and anyone who's a fan of the Wolves. Love's narcissism certainly isn't helping the team.

Its kinda funny because they have a lot of international players in that team. And if there's something racist Americans hates more than black people its foreigners.

There's 6 white guys on the team 7 if you count Barea. Bulls almost have the same amount of white guys.

First of all, "almost" isn't equal. Second, compare the starting lineups. And Noah isn't white FYI.

The idea that Minnesota is some white 1950s team is a bit absurd. They have three American white players Budinger, Love and Hummels. Ricky Rubio and JJ Barea would probably be mistaken by as a Mexican by most of you yanks. Alexey Shved and Pekovic are eastern Europeans which most fans can't really relate to.

I have it on good authority that Bran's reps reached out to minny about clearing cap space so he could sign there as a free agent, but they were told that the skin tone cut off to play in Minny is somewhere around Kris Humphries.

Mexico is a diverse country and the guy you posted is heavily amerindian. Regardless Americans are clueless on race, ethnicity and anything outside its borders and many would lump Ricky Rubio as a mexican because he is a "latino" and speaks spanish.

So are you. Ricky Rubio is NOT a latino.

"Latino" is actually a word with no racial meaning. It means a person from Latin America, which Rubio isn't.

Latin America = Countries in the American continents with a population that predominantly speaks a language descended from the Roman language (Latin) such as Spanish, French, Italian, Portuguese, Romanian, etc....



THERE IS NO "LATINO" RACE

Eh no shit hence why I used the quotation marks. Nelly Furtado is considered a "latina" even though her parents are from Portugal.
