GRIT & GRIND of Beale Street strikes a Deal with the CELTS....PEKOVIC stays in 10k LAKES...SQUEEZE the ORANGE with Memphis DRY RUB , the Hub CLAM CHOWDER, and 10K Fishing Holes in Minnesota!

Yes hot off the press the Memphis Grizzlies trade Wing Forward Donte Greene to the C's for the Big Bust Fab Melo. Yes and looking at it closely two former Syracuse Orangeman who then were one and done and should have stayed at least three seasons. Melo was a Bust his freshman season at the 'Cuse. Greene coming in as a Top 15 Schoolboy Player from Towson Catholic in B-More came into 'Cuse with Point Guard and former T'Wolves 1st rounder Jonny Flynn.

The Grizz need to add some relief for Marc Gasol and they just need Melo to play Big an grab some rebounds and block shots. The C's in turn might need Greene to score on the Wing and defend as they are in Lego Land Mode....build it back up baby!

The Minnesota T'Wolves secure their most important piece since drafting Kevin Love in re-signing Center Nikola Pekovic. Pekovic reportedly gets five years and $60 million but it's what he does for the Wolves Schematically speaking. They play him as he is a Natural Center who can score. That allows the "Lake Oswego Monster" K.L. to play Mid-Range and out. The Wolves are right there and foe New GM Flip Saunders that was just what the Doctor ordered for the Wolves./
