According to his agent, Shaun never worked out for the Heat nor is a workout scheduled. This means the Blazers and Minnesota are the only two teams who are still in the running to sign him. Livingston claims his knee is close to 100% and he can't wait to show people how well he is doing. I don't know how well Livingston fits with Minnesota. Kevin Love makes the team perfect for fast breaks, but can Livingston still run the floor like that for 82 games? If the Blazers sign Livingston and he actually makes a come back, I think KP will have officially creeped me out with his near perfect judgement calls. That would be some good luck, as in, he made a pact with Satan sort of luck.

interesting point.

the pact with satan, I mean. sure KP’s soul will be tormented in hell for all of eternity, but we’re talking about an NBA championship here. at this point, I’d be willing to grant power of attorney to KP if I was Paul Allen. personally, I don’t think we need shaun livingston (even though I wrote a post on this idea a few months ago) but we don’t repeat the mantra “in KP we trust” for nothing. the guy is 10 steps ahead of everyone else and even if I completely disagreed with one of his moves, I would accept it with the understanding that KP has a well thought out plan for every move he makes. the guy probably wakes up with a strategy for breakfast and has 3 back up plans in case theres no bacon in the fridge. bottom line is, if KP thinks shaun is worth investing a roster spot in, then I’m on board.

Afew years ago, a broadcaster once said Pryzbilla's name is "Polish for 'personal foul.'" Ouch.

Sounds like "The Hunt for Red October"

Adm. Painter: What’s his plan?
Jack Ryan: His plan?
Adm. Painter: Russians don’t take a dump, son, without a plan.

Minnesota seems also really interested in him

In fact, not only their GM and coach looked at him, they also took Bassy Telfair, Al Jefferson, and Mike Miller to work out with him and reportedly were sold after the workout. Yet on the other hand as I posted in my fanshot to the Oregonian article they seem interested in bringing PG Blake Ahearn on bord, who is a totally different player (solid, but much less potential).
