This could get ugly and fast.  Saturday evening, Nicolas Batum's agent spoke with CSNNW.com to give an update and where Batum's contract situation stands.  Batum wants to play in Minnesota but the Blazers have the right to match the offer sheet that Batum signed with the Timberwolves.

His mind is not there in Portland. Out of that meeting with the Blazers (on Thursday), we hoped they would allow him to live his dream. The best case scenario is a sign-and-trade and we understand that. Hopefully, Paul Allen would never stand in the way of his dream to play for the Timberwolves,”
