From RealGM:With Minnesota Timberwolves' President David Kahn bound for Spain this week, some feel the trip isn't necessarily to bring Ricky Rubio back to Minnesota.
One insider tells RealGM's Alex Kennedy that Kahn could be working out a scenario where Rubio would be dealt to the New York Knicks.
"The Knicks have closed off negotiations with all free agent point guards until next week," says the source. "I think they're making a push for Rubio and if that fails, then they'll reopen talks with their other options.
My goodness... Will the Ricky Rubio to New York dream ever die?
The Wolves desperately need a guard after the Mike Miller/Randy Foye trade. And since they know the Knicks need a young point guard and are jocking Ricky extra hard, they can command a lot in return. I'm talking a gutting of the core. Toney Douglas, Wilson Chandler, David Lee and Jordan Hill.
My suggestion is to sign someone who is young and has already proven to be efficient in the NBA, and to not be a punk about it. How about Ramon Sessions?
Well, there lies the solution, as articulated in this report from Alan Hahn:
Seems Bucks have written off Sessions w/ today's deal for Delfino/Ukic. Roster/Budget packed. Knix will wait for Sessions to come to them.
Sessions has nowhere else to go. Milwaukee doesn't want him. LA already has 6 guards looking for minutes. He'll come to NY and the Knicks won't have to give anything up for him (except a little scrilla).
