TrueHoop interview with Kahn

From Henry Abbott/TrueHoop: David Kahn on Ricky Rubio:
What’s your best guess as to what’s next?
It’s very fluid. It’s going to be topsy-turvy for some time. We knew stepping into this that it would be a little fuzzy. But there is no concern in my mind about how things have gone so far. He has a significant buyout, and they’re sorting through that now.


From reading online, it seems like there has been a lot of excitement among Timberwolves fans. People want to see Ricky Rubio in a Timberwolves uniform. To the extent you do consider trade offers, does this fan reaction drive the price up? If maybe on draft night you would have considered taking player X, do you now want players X and Y?

The politicians always say that you shouldn’t answer hypotheticals. I’m going to be like Barack Obama on this one. … The likeliest scenario by far is that Ricky Rubio will be in a Timberwolves uniform. Now, I have always couched my comments on that topic just in case someone floors us with some offer. But I’m highly skeptical that someone will floor us.


How’s the coaching search going?

Great. We’re a third of the way through preliminary interviews. There’s no time pressure on this process, so we’re going to take some time.
