Old friends McHale, Bird still toiling away in NBA INDIANAPOLIS Timberwolves coach Kevin McHale never imagined when they were young and wild and winning championships together in Boston that he, Larry Bird and Danny Ainge all someday Shox Electricwould run NBA teams. ¶ And yet here they all are. ¶ "I don't think you envision anything when you're 25," Bird said. McHale swears the gray hairs in his head are breeding since he returned to coaching nearly two months ago, and Bird's facial features seemingly droop a little more before your very eyes. And yet -- with their playing legacies and financial futures long ago assured and their managerial acumen still open for lively debate -- they remain in the game on the other side of 50, because competition is in their blood and basketball Nike Men Air Force 1 Highis what they've always done. "I know Kevin worked hard as a youngster, and I had all kinds of jobs," said Bird, the Indiana Pacers' president of basketball operations. "But when you get right down to it, this is what we know." Ainge and McHale collaborated two summers ago on a seismic trade that completely reshaped two franchises: It brought the Celtics both Kevin Garnett and their 17th title and set the Wolves on a painful rebuilding process that inevitably sent McHale back to the sidelines. Two days after the Celtics beat the Wolves in Boston withoutUGG Stormburst Garnett present, McHale will coach from one bench and Bird will watch from behind the other tonight when the Wolves and Pacers play at Conseco Fieldhouse. On Monday, McHale for the first time was named the Western Conference Coach of the Month for January after leading the Wolves to a 10-4 record one month after they went 2-14. It's a place McHale never thought he'd be, neither 25 years ago when all three players watched how Red Auerbach built a team nor three months ago. "When I was really young, Bill Fitch was my coach and UGG Suburbat that point, I was very anti-coaching," McHale said, referring to his first NBA coach. "Bill yelled at me, yelled at us all the time. I never really could see myself doing that."
