Nbadraft.net had an interview with Petey "'take your shirt off, spin it round your head like a helicopter" Philo.

NBADraft.net: Last year you drafted Nikola Pekovic of Partizan. He is now playing in Panithinaikos having an outstanding season. He was basically the main guy at the final 4 in Berlin in which the coaching staff of each team had to prepare for and around. The Timberwolves have his draft rights. You picked him, that must be a good feeling knowing you got a steal as well as a very talented center for the future of the Wolves.

Pete Philo: Nikola is a very good basketball player. Yes he was very instrumental in how the coaches prepared for the games as he was basically unstoppable with single coverage. However, I cannot take full credit for drafting him. Kevin Mchale made the final decison with Jim stack and Fred hoiberg. I do my part and prepare our guys with all necessary International information in order to make a clear selection.

So what you're saying is Kevin McHale is a genius and we should offer him the house to be our full time GM. Get er done, we can't let this guy get away!

Nice words from DX about our guy. That should solve our backup center problem unless he is better than we all think.

Who was Rob Legend? GreatRC?

UPGRADE! WOOHOO!

I wouldn't really call it obnoxious. I'd say it's more calculated lunacy. It's a tough balance. I got faith in the kid, though. Especially since he understands and appreciates the beauty of thinking outside the box.

That'd be like the tasks of Hercules.

Since it won't cause any confusion now, I think I'll be WImn, because I've always been a fan.
