Wolves Updates 2/15

Nevertheless, here are two developments to watch with Thomas: Several league executives suggested the Minnesota Timberwolves could be a sleeper for him. Minnesota general manager David Kahn has been researching Thomas and has plenty of assets – three 2010 first-round picks, multiple second-rounders and a host of expiring contracts – to make it happen. Once the Timberwolves trade Al Jefferson(notes) this summer, they can re-sign Thomas and plug him into the frontline with Kevin Love(notes). Jefferson is expected to be traded for a talented, young small forward.

Trading for Thomas would be a way to get a long, athletic power forward with upside, and the Timberwolves could easily re-sign him this summer.

Pet peeves? Reporters asking stupid questions.

Do I want to be an NBA head coach? That’s my stated goal of why I got back into the NBA and the assistant coaching ranks — to learn and prepare to be a head coach.

What would I want my last meal to be?
I told our public relations guy I’d answer water.
