DraftExpress on trade rumors

-No GM in the NBA is apparently more active right now than Minnesota’s David Kahn, as he’s apparently set on “making a big splash in his first draft” according to one NBA executive, and is “talking to everyone” at the moment. One rumor that is making the rounds has Minnesota sending Memphis Kevin Love in exchange for the #2 pick (and filler). Minnesota would then draft Ricky Rubio, which could help them significantly with their ticket sales, and still have the #6 pick at their disposal, which they could use to take someone like Jordan Hill.
Whether the Wolves would be willing to give up Love is debatable, but they have the picks (6, 18 and 28) to move up in the draft and the Grizzlies have signaled that they’re willing to trade down.
