Timberwolves owner Glen Taylor says he, Vice President of Basketball Operations Kevin McHale and coach Phil Saunders have talked about making changes for next season but will wait until the playoffs end before making any decisions.

Taylor is not happy about the prospect of the team being eliminated in the first round for the sixth consecutive time.

"Well, I've talked to Kevin and Flip about that, and I think depending on what happens in the next couple games here, I think we've got some ideas that we will try next year to make a difference," Taylor said.

"Well, I don't feel comfortable saying what we would do now until we finish this season. I just think it's premature. Our second half of the season wasn't as good as we all anticipated and hoped it would be, and it's going to be difficult now, but let's just hope we can win at home here and then take our chances."

Taylor said McHale's and Saunders' jobs are not in danger.

Taylor said the salary cap will make it difficult to make a lot of changes.

"Because of the salary cap, we don't have much flexibility to do very much, so it isn't like in the old days where you had a lot of flexibility," he said. "You have to improve within or you've got to do a straight trade where somehow you help another team and they help you."
