Wolves looking for 'pitbull' in Rashad McCants

Posted Jul 5, 2005

Rashad McCants feels that Kevin Garnett is missing that sidekick, like John Stockton to Karl Malone or Scottie Pippen to Michael Jordan. McCants feels he can be that person. Dwane Casey said he talked to Garnett before he drafted McCants and he was very excited. Garnett and the rest of the team are looking for a way " to get that chip back on their shoulder," and "get that swagger back." In that sense, they all feel that McCants was the right choice on draft day. (KTSP.com)
