Se la vie!!!
We can thank David Stern for losing Sessions. He is the one who started the "cap panic" of 2009 by saying the 2010 cap may be around 50 million dollars. No GM with half a brain and a shot at signing an elite 2010 free agent would take a chance on losing LeBron by signing Ramon.
Thanks Dave!!!

Agreed, Bill. It is also reported that Donnie Walsh will now begin the pursuit of the Ruby, irrespective of any two year deal the kid is bound by. There is some speculation that NY never even wanted Sessions, but chased him until Ricky was not going to be playing in the NBA this year. Walsh apparently wasn't enamored with Ramon as much as Sessions' agent, Chubby Wells was.
If I were a T'Wolves fan, I would not think that Mr. David Kahn had a very successful draft this year, considering the team had to acquire a third PG after drafting two in June. Finally, there is a GM dumber than a stick in the mud. IMHO. Of course.

Hmm...did Donnie play David Kahn like a fiddle? From the article, I kind of feel bad for Kahn, for he seems like a nice guy, sort of like Ed Tapscott, in a weird, eerily similar manner. Finally, NY has an NBA GM who isn't afraid to speak about what he is going for and for saying it the way it is. What were Minny execs doing in the war room during the draft? Eating garlic fries and discussing Ed Tapscott's drafting of Uncle Fred as if it were some sort of coup de gras? Hey, I'd trade Larry Hughes in a second for Rick Rubio's rights, and a year of Mark Blount and Brian "The Ewe" Cardinal. Wasn't Blount busted with a "blunt" last season? |
