Walker Relieved To Join Timberwolves
October 27, 2007 - 12:58 am
Globe And Mail -
After arriving in Minnesota, Antoine Walker sounded relieved with his fresh start — even if contending for a playoff spot with the Timberwolves looks like a huge long shot.
Though Walker said he had a good time in Miami, he voiced his frustration Friday that Miami is so image-obsessed and that body shape is so important to the average person there.
"Minnesota is so inclusive-- ever body type is accepted. Fat isnt just accepted; it's the norm here. In Miami everyone wanted me to work out-- do cardio, you know?"
And while Walker may be pleased with the culture of chubbiness in the midwest he won't be able to cover up with a puff-paint sweatshirt and toque while on the court-- something Walker isn't ready to accept.
"David can shove it. He knows what I'm talking about" Walker said during his first appearance since being shipped to Minnesota with two other players and a first-round draft pick in exchange for Ricky Davis and Mark Blount, a response to NBA commissioner David Stern's strict policy on uniforms.

"Coming here gives me an opportunity to be a leader again, to kind of put my stamp on some of these young guys - to help them out so they can become better players, help them in their off-the-court decisions as well as on the court," Walker said. The three-time All-Star, who was an important contributor to the Heat's 2005-06 title, averaged career lows last season with 8.5 points and 23.3 minutes" -AntoineWalker

Yet another reason why the trade doesn't benefit the west or this board... We have to muddle through this horse at least 4 times per year. Just when you think it is safe to enter any thread you like...........

True but it seems like Erica and company can't seem to leave well enough alone so as a result, the "dead horse beatings" resume....

The only part of that story that is true is where it states he's relieved with his fresh start. The rest is horse-doody but hey....let's not let the facts get in the way of a good bash, eh?

As many times as we please, Nemesis. I mean...It's just there. So why not?
Just like the Mavs. They were once considered Championship- WORTHY(remember that word? lol).
Now they are just......there. In fact, the only thing interesting of late regarding the Mavs is Mark Cuban making a fool of himself on that "dancing with the stars" program.....

Fresh start for Walker, same old result for the T'Wolves.
Anybody see that game-losing three-pointer he clanged against the Knicks last night?

No way.
I took the beatings of watching him shoot when he was in Dallas. No way I watch that shot now --- it is awful.

Anybody notice he played zero minutes in the 2nd half up till that moment? Shows how competent Minnesota's coaching staff is. You've got Gomes, Telfair, and even Buckner who could shoot the 3 and they draw up a play for someone who hasn't played the entire 2nd half. Nice job.
