“I’m just looking forward and trying to market myself beyond basketball,” says McCants. “I know nothing is promised and nothing is guaranteed, so I have to have a plan where I can make something happen outside of basketball. That was my plan.”
“I have a clothing line starting, little business ventures and things like that, so hopefully everything goes well,” continues McCants. “I’ll probably start up a blog pretty soon. There will be a tattoo contest where people send in their tattoos, what they mean and go from there. Probably get some player interviews about their tattoos and take it step by step. It’ll probably go into a magazine kind of thing and we’ll take it from there.”
Rashad McCants has posted a new poem on his site titled Unseen In The Dark:
Even though I emerge unseen in the dark
I still create a shadow in the brightest of days.
Sun rays on Sundays create my image.
I’m a visionary message
from the planet of perfection…
Wolves guard Sebastian Telfair was jumping a little on his mid-range jump shots late in practice today. It’s obvious he’s still limited by his sprained left ankle, but he’s making progress. He hasn’t participated in practice yet since he was injured March 7. Coach Randy Wittman said Telfair would accompany the team for the two-game road trip to Houston and San Antonio this week. Telfair isn’t expected to play in those games, but Wittman wants him to get extensive treatment on the ankle.
“As much preparation and hard work I did in Houston, all I needed was
to be in another situation,” Snyder said. “The team I played for is top
five in the NBA right now. The basketball IQ that goes unnoticed there
is going to be seen and as soon as I got here, Coach Wittman, he knew
what he was seeing.”

Snyder said Wittman asked him to provide everything that doesn’t show up in a boxscore.
“Do the unseen things,” Snyder said. “When you go in and tip a ball to
a teammate and he gets the rebound, little stuff like that.”

From David Thorpe/ESPN:
Brewer is a world-class athlete who can create chaos on defense and
keep his man from getting easy shots. But his offensive game is subpar
from a technical standpoint. Brewer may be light, but he’s very tall
and long for his position. So learning how Melo gains an advantage in
the post in terms of positioning, and then how he goes to work with his
face-up game, would help Brewer a great deal…
The Wolves embark on a six-game stretch that is
perhaps their toughest of the season, starting tonight in Houston. The
next six games are against five teams fighting for playoff position.
