Howard in town

Juwan Howard, having passed his post-trade physical, was introduced to theTwin Cities media Wednesday. He praised the quality of young talent on the team, while implying that Craig Smith's ownership of the No. 5 (the number Howard has always worn) is limited at best. He said he has a lot left in his gas tank while saying that he expects he'll be able to put the pedal to the metal this fall with Garnett as his teammate.

"All I heard was just rumors," Howard said. "It hasn't happened. I'm excited to have an opportunity to play with him. This is his team.he's going to be here. When I got traded here I knew I was going to be playing with a warrior who brings it night in and night out.
