\nNow that the Wolves are in full-scale rebuilding mode, it’s possible veterans such as Ricky Davis, Trenton Hassell and Mark Blount might not play as much as they did last season. Would those players be comfortable adapting to a reduced role?<\/i>\n<\/div>\n
\n \n<\/div>\n
\n"That’s going to play itself out," Wittman said. "If
\nit does play out that way, yeah, I think they’re going to have to.
\nWe’re going to go with the guys that deserve to play. We’re going to
\nplay guys that play hard every night. We’re going to establish that
\nright from the start."<\/span> <\/i>\n<\/div>\n

\nMVP: “<\/b>Hard to say…”
\nScoring Champ:<\/b> “Honestly, I think Kobe or ‘Melo.”
\nROY:<\/b> “That’s tough too … I’ll go with Kevin Durant.”
\nSleeper Team:<\/b> “Timberwolves.”
\nSleeper Player:<\/b> “Myself.”
\nFavorite to win it all:<\/b> “Boston. That’s what everyone is saying.” \n<\/div>\n

\nTHE BIG QUESTION: Who’s going to lead this team? The Garnett trade left
\nthe T-Wolves devoid of veterans. This young squad, with an average age
\nof 25.8, will have to look up to the likes of Mark Blount, Theo Ratliff
\nand Howard. The oldest guard on the team, Marko Jaric, turns 29 in
\nOctober. The younger guys may have to lead themselves.<\/i>\n<\/div>\n
