Derrick Williams or Michael Beasely

I'm a big supporter of him and think the Wolves should trade Beasely by getting involved in one of those megadeals with Howard or Paul where they could also get some good return value.

They're going to wait and see how Williams is playing around the trade deadline,then make that choice...Honestly i think right now,Williams have more trade value than Beasley...

The TWolves would not be getting max value on a Beasley trade now.

It remains to be seen how the bench tandem of Ronny Turiaf and Ryan Hollins will hold up and perform through the season. Neither are necessarily “high-impact” players but Turiaf brings a tremendous presence to the locker room. Hollins is athletic and willing.

Perhaps the true key for the Clippers this season to climb into true contention is the development of Jordan.

In the best of times, Al Horford, at 6-foot-10, 250 pounds, is an under-sized center and more suited to playing power forward.

Certainly, any rehab process has a vital mental aspect. It's a daily grind, often both tedious and painful, without the reward of playing. For Horford, just getting to the point where he could return was no small feat.

As everyone knows, O’Neal manned the middle for the Lakers during their three straight championship runs a decade ago. He often referred to himself as “the CEO” of those teams -- which, of course, led to the clashes with Kobe Bryant.

Again, it’s early, but that is the way it’s looking. Samuels and Leuer are both expected to back up second-year man Tristan Thompson at power forward. Samuels is more of an inside threat, Leuer is a big man who’s effective from the perimeter. So it’s a safe bet Scott will play each according to matchups.
