08:14 AM ET 08.31 | David Khan may not be done yet. While the Minnesota Timberwolves may not necessarily be in the market for another shooting guard at this point in the offseason, the team still plans to explore a handful of possible options on the free agent market with training camp drawing closer. One of those options, according to 1500 ESPN's Darren Wolfson, is veteran swingman Mickael Pietrus, a 6-foot-6 3-point specialist who routinely serves as one of the NBA's top sixth men. ... Wolfson believes he could be an attractive option if the organization opts to move a guard: Nothing concrete, but Kahn has spoken with Mickael Pietrus' camp. Suppose if Kahn moves a guard, he could become an option.

If this cat is as good as we're told....why is he always on the move? I guess he's a top sell to GM's around the league. I can't see though!

Another SF? Really?

They're building a collection...they turned over their SFs from last year for a new set. This is why some teams will NOT win...they have no direction

The dude wants something like 4-5 mil a year. Not sure why Kahn would do that.

But then again, not sure about ANYTHING Kahn does.

Correction. They turned over their SFs last year who couldnt play for SFs who could. I see what youre saying though. The wolves dont need a SF per se as much as they need depth with people who can play on the perimeter both offensively and especially defensively. The guys from last year (Webster, Beasley, and Johnson) could not cut it. This year? Guess we have to wait and see.

As for Pietrus, I wouldnt put too much stock in that. How may many of these T&Rs actually come to fruition. This site seems more like a place to jab and vent than anything.

It's better for him to be anywhere else instead of wearing green and playing for a town with a moron, intolerant anti-Christian Mayor.
