David Kahn was an integral part of getting Ricky Rubio to come to Minnesota, two years after being selected sixth overall in the 2009 NBA Draft.
Rubio & Kahn developed a good relationship and as such, Ricky was a bit sad to see Kahn dismissed.
That makes Rubio part of a very small group as most were very happy to see Kahn gone. Leading that charge is likely the Wolves' best player: Kevin Love, who frequently butted heads with D. Kahn. GM's & executives around the League are happy to see Kahn go as well as he was notoriously known as hard to deal with/talk to and just plain weird!
Rubio had this to say on Kahn's departure, "He had a lot of confidence in me and when a person has so much confidence in you, you have to feel bad about it. I've talked with Flip Saunders, he has a lot of experience and knows a lot about basketball, so I like him very much.
Some people are saying that this could create a wedge between Rubio & the Wolves organization, but I just can't see a guy like Ricky holding a grudge against the front office over a person like David Kahn.
That's all for now, thanks for reading HOWL and GO WOLVES!
