I mean, REALLY?! Rumor has it that the Minnesota Timberwolves have agreed in principle with Darko "the human victory cigar" Milicic on a 4 year/$20mill contract!This deal for Milicic is quite odd considering that in February he wasn't even playing in the league and said he was giving up on the NBA and returning to Europe. Career averages for Darko, 5 pts and 4 rbs per game. SOLID!!
Furthermore, this isn't the only splash the Wolves have made in the past 24 hours. Earlier today they agreed to another 4 year, $13 million deal with their 2008 second round-pick, Nikola Pekovic. With these two moves, the T-Wolves just spend $33 million to shore up their middle, yeah and BP shored up the oil spill on the golf coast
If these two clowns, especially Darko are worth $20 million and $13 million respectively, then I'm worth at least $500k/year to carry towels and clean lockers. Not to mention these deals cut severely into the Wolves cap room this summer. Previously they were $13 million under the cap but now have a little under $5million left to use on remaining FA's. All the while they are trying to move Al Jefferson, a 25 year old potential all star with career averages of 20pts and 10rbs. So, replace a career 20/10 guy with a career 5/4 guy and severly eat into your cap space during arguably the biggest free agent summer of all time, yeah that makes a ton of sense. I tell you what, those must be some seriously physcadelic drugs they have in Minnesota.
