We have already seen Anderson Varejao sign with the Golden State Warriors, and it’s only a matter of time before Joe Johnson joins the Cleveland Cavaliers or Oklahoma City Thunder or some other contender in need of depth on the wings.

Kevin Martin and the Minnesota Timberwolves aren’t speeding toward a divorce. They’re slowly, painfully, with the swiftness of a three-toed sloth, slogging toward a divorce. Martin has meandered in and out—mostly in—of the trade rumor mill over the last few weeks. He only recently returned to the rotation following a seven-game stint inside the “DNP” [...]

Kevin Martin probably hasn’t played his last game for the Minnesota Timberwolves. Then again, he just may have. Martin registered his third straight “Did Not Play” in Monday night’s loss to the San Antonio Spurs, and although he’s healthy, he shouldn’t expect to see more playing time—or any playing time—in the future, per Jerry Zgoda [...]

Achoo! Sorry, I’m allergic to complete and utter bullshit. Which is just what the Timberwolves’ Kevin Martin is slinging these days apparently. While many of his teammates lamented the loss of Love and talked about how to move forward without him, K-Mart was still coming to terms with the fact this blockbuster trade existed at [...]

Kevin Martin entered his tenure in OKC with lofty shoes to fill. James Harden was a fan favorite and was deal without much of a heads up. Martin filled in admirably but OKC didn’t live up to expectations. Because of their cap situation, OKC couldn’t offer Martin much money, but he still considered staying. “He [...]

If you were under the belief that the Thunder should’ve figured out a way to pay James Harden, you now have more ammo. Harden’s replacement, Kevin Martin, will no longer be a member of the Thunder. Minnesota has signed Martin away from OKC. Martin never completely filled Harden’s void, but he will still be missed. [...]

Kevin Martin wants to return to the Oklahoma City Thunder, but money talks, and there may not be enough cash ‘speaking’ for him to remain next to Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook. Per The Oklahoman‘s Darnell Mayberry, the Thunder are unlikely to retain the veteran shooting guard: I’ve always liked Lamb’s potential. But while I [...]
