Oh my, Kevin McHale interview here…http://www.twincities.com/sports/ci_6577691?nclick_check=1

My favourite exchange from this interview:

BS: Did you try to get K.G. to be more physical? Is that an area of his game that he never gave you, and you hoped he would?

KM: Kevin is such a gifted player. He rebounds like he's 8 feet tall. But he plays offense like he's 6-4. That was the game that was best suited for him.

Brown, Dikembe Mutombo, Gary Payton, Dale Davis, Clifford Robinson, Doug Christie, Vin Baker and the ageless Kevin Willis.

The best personnel move made in the NBA this off-season (aside fro KG to Boston)? Got to be Houston picking up the draft rights to Luis Scola (along with center Jackie Butler) from the Spurs in exchange for Greek guard Vassilis Spanoulis, a future second-round draft pick and future detritus…Scola, who is like a beter shooting Buck Williams is a good rebounder and defender and a very crafty scorer who shoots very, very well from the floor (60-65%)…
