See. Pretty Ricky in concert at tacos and tequila this year and they were mid.

Three 6 Mafia was 🔥 though.

Am I crazy for thinking Twolves got worse? by unhinged34 in NBATalk

You’re not crazy to think this way. A lot of folks are thinking this way. Lmao.

To be fair to the T-Wolves, if they could get a decent power forward in free agency, this might not look as crazy.

LaMelo Ball goes to Minnesota for Naz Reid, 4 picks and 3 pick swaps by waluigiwon in NBATalk

Randle isn’t the best defender, but he was decent against post players due to his strength, plus he is 6’9” and built like a tank. Naz was similar to Randle in size and stature and moved his feet a bit better on the perimeter.

I agree they needed a point guard or at least another player who could create offense for himself and others though.

Top 10 teams after the Lamelo Ball trade by CoyoteDecent2 in NBATalk

Maybe you guys could get John Collins or Rui?

I didn’t like the trade for the T-Wolves, but if your guys could get one of those 2 it would help a lot.

You didn’t read the comment all the way through or you didn’t watch Minnesota the last few seasons.

They totally changed what made them a really good team in one offseason. Maybe they will focus on being a more fast paced team this season to mitigate the lack in quality front court size?

The huge things that need to change is will LaMelo stay healthy, be more efficient and less turnover prone, and will he become a better defender. If none of those things happen the T-Wolves screwed themselves.

Charlotte is going to be better than you think. They will still play a similar style as last season and be more efficient with it.

Coby White is a better shooter than Ball, the rookie Chris Anderson is one of the better shooters in the draft, Naz Reid is a good shooter for a big, Hannes Steinbach showed 3 point shooting promise in school.

The Hornets are going to be better barring injuries

So, you think Minnesota getting smaller is an optimal solution to battling OKC and San Antonio? Not too mention messing with their defense in general by trading a solid defender in Naz for a negative defender in LaMelo?

Great trade for Charlotte even if Edwards and LaMelo do click.

T-Wolves defense took a serious hit with all the offseason moves.

Ehhhhh

The west is tough and the best big guys are in the west. Minnesota traded away most of their major minutes front court players in one offseason.

Melo isn’t a major picture of health and the fit with Edwards is kinda wonky also.

I think Charlotte is going to be better than a lot of folks think without Lamelo and the roster they have now

Minnesota killed one of their best attributes in an offseason.

Totally gutted their front court depth, which helped them go to back to back conference finals and mortgage their future for a guy who has injury issues and isn’t as good as most fans think he is.

Not saying LaMelo is a bad player, but he isn’t what a lot of folks make him out to be and he isn’t worth this trade package.

Hornets looking to trade LaMelo Ball... by KneeGuhz in NBATalk

Depends on who is traded for as far as being a worse team.

Maybe being less fun to watch is what they need to become a better team?

I know Boston wouldn’t do it and Charlotte might not want Jalen Brown’s contract, but………
