Cleveland trades Delonte West and Sebastian Telfair to Minnesota for Ramon Sessions, Ryan Hollins and a draft pick, a source told Y! Sports.

Well there most likely goes our chance of getting Delonte for the people that wanted him unless he gets bought out.

[JBcat]

Wow Minnesota liked Telfair so much the first time they just had to get him back.

[Mike-Dub]

Wolves could waive Delonte West, only guaranteed $500,000, to further get under the salary cap, and trade Telfair, source tells Y! Sports.

Via Marc Spears again.

You guys think Delonte would be willing to take the minimum and would you guys want him back (I know Nick wouldn't lol)?

[xmuscularghandix]

I like this trade for Minn.. Delonte is a starting caliber player. They don’t have too many guys you can say that about.

Flynn, West, ??, Love, ??

this team is still going to be VERY bad, maybe worse... but i think Delonte will ultimately be a good pickup.

I think there is almost zero chance that David Kahn wants Delonte "Mad-dog" West anywhere near his team of young impressionable millionaires. I also doubt he wants to deal with the hassle of trying to figure out how his house arrest deal works.

If anything I think this makes chances of West ending up in green better.

Also, I would like to have a caption contest on what Sebastian Telfair said when he got the call.

Sebastian: "I'm sorry agent guy, I could've sworn you just said Minnesota. I went there once...its full of polar bears and Sarah Palin and Russians are right next door! No thank you."
Agent: "No Sebastian, that's Alaska."
ST: "You're Alaska."
Agent: "No, I'm an agent."
Sebastian: "I hate you."

Lol TP I just added the second tweet from Marc Spears.  Looks like Delonte is going to get waived.

[Mike-Dub]

Jw is Delonte even going to be able to play this year because I remember he got 8 months of house arrest and that just started for him today.

Edit:  Nvm just read that he can attend practices and games for the season.

[Eddie20]

Yeah, West will be getting waived sometime in the next week and a half.

[BballTim]

Wow Minnesota liked Telfair so much the first time they just had to get him back.

  Great news for Telfair though. Marcus Banks played in Minny for a while and ended up getting about $5M a year. Maybe that luck will rub off.

[RebusRankin]

So do they keep Telfair to go with their other 2 pgs? Does Kahn have a plan (I'm not even asking good plan, I mean a plan).

[Eddie20]

So now they have Flynn, Ridnour, and Telfair. The PG carousel of KAHN continues.

flipping brilliant

Excellent trade for Minnesota ... getting out from underneath that awful Ryan Hollins contract + moving Ramon Sessions who was a poor fit and superfluous to requirements. Nice cap flexibility in return.

No idea what the heck Cleveland think they are doing though. It would be a good trade if they followed this up by dumping Mo Williams and then turned the side over to Ramon Sessions but I'm not expecting that to happen.

I don't think that many people wanted Delonte back, especially since we don't have a need for him now.  I also don't think Danny has any interest.  I'd be surprised if Danny is interested.
