Owner Glen Taylor, interviewed at halftime of Minnesota's 110-87 loss to the Denver Nuggets on Sunday night at Target Center, said he still expects Kevin McHale to return as coach next season but that McHale hasn't told him he would.

Taylor also said the team will have a general manager-type to head up basketball operations, ending the committee-style approach it has used in recent seasons.

"We're going to have one person that will be at the top," Taylor said. "We've interviewed quite a few people."

Asked if that person will come from inside or outside the organization, Taylor said: "We're interviewing inside and outside. I'd say we're pretty much done with it."
