Minnesota Offers Jefferson To Indiana For Granger

If I were the general manager of the Pacers, I would definitely have to pass up on this deal. In my opinion, Danny Granger just seems to be a much more suited player to build a franchise around than Al Jefferson. Read the full article here: http://sports.yahoo.com/nba/news;_ylt=A ... &type=lgns

Wolves' Kahn insists Jefferson not available
Minnesota Timberwolves president David Kahn insists that Al Jefferson has not been made available -- to anyone -- in advance of the Feb. 18 trading deadline.

“As I’ve said publicly,” Kahn told ESPN.com, “I have no intention of trading any of our core players this season.”
...
No such discussions have taken place according to Kahn, who said Monday: “I spoke to [Pacers president] Larry Bird in person Friday in between our shootarounds for 20 minutes and neither player’s name was ever mentioned.”

So, considering we have a denial shall we assume Jefferson is being quietly shopped?

Sounds like a fun 2K10 association for both sides. Unless Jeff Foster or Roy Hibbert is thrown into the trade, it leaves Minnesota without a Center, and if you do that, then its a raw deal for Indiana.

Would have really been something if it really happened.

T-Wolves without Jefferson is def a downgrade, he is basically their only legit bigman in the paint.
I'll do whatever it takes to win games, whether it's sitting on a bench waving a towel, handing a cup of water to a teammate, or hitting the game-winning shot.
