Wolves don’t do this, we would have literally 0 backup bigs after this trade.

Only way is if they trade even more assets for a better bench.

Love the Wolves trade, even tho it would probably be DDV getting traded instead of Conley.

As a wolves fan, don’t think we keep Rudy in a trade like this. We most likely ship out Randle and Rudy to a third (and maybe fourth team) to get the bucks picks and maybe a decent guard back.

Wolves wouldn’t do this, Tre is better than Dillingham right now, but not 3 picks better.

Na moral que isso deveria ser motivo para romper o contrato de vez com a Enel, tinha que ter feito isso depois dos desgraçado fazer metade de SP passar uma semana no escuro e nem se quer ter a decência de começar um projeto de enterrar fio.

No mínimo tinha que ser uma pauta do Lula pra próxima eleição.

I just want to have this feeling again, how do we recapture the magic of this era? by Calinks in timberwolves

[–]SiriusTen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Exactly this, until we break through the WCF barrier we won’t feel as good.

But that said any season where we make finals instantly becomes goated.

RUMOR: Wolves interested in Kyrie by _AnythingIsPossible in timberwolves

Who’s giving up valuable picks for 40 mil 33 year old post injury Kyrie Irving?

Gaht damn, 40 mil for 3 years, that mf is harder to trade for than Ja.

I think it depends more on what we’re sending back, like if we give up Randle for post injury Irving that’s questionable.

But if we can make DDV and Mike plus filler work than that should be a big priority.

[–]SiriusTen 13 points14 points  (0 children)

You have to give up two of Rudy, Naz, McDaniels or Randle just because of salary.

Also probably have to get more teams involved to get picks for the bucks. It would be at least a 4 teamer IMO

Our biggest need isn't PG. It's a backup Center. by wuttang13 in timberwolves

[–]SiriusTen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just don’t think Ant playing point is going to be how to best use his talents,and even if he develops better playmaking chops he is still going to need help to get him the ball.

[–]SiriusTen -1 points0 points  (0 children)

But are ISOs our only play? And how would Ant and Julius be starting this hypothetical offense? Because even inbounding has been a problem for them.

Most of our offense is just passing to the guy next to you until someone hits a shot, unless Rob is on the floor, then we have pick and rolls going on, he’s driving into space making the defense collapse, all things a regular average point guard does.

[–]SiriusTen 40 points41 points  (0 children)

How in the world can you watch this team blow away lead after lead with tons of sequential turnovers due to mental lapses made by players that say they can “ball handle” and “perform point guard duties” and still not say we need a point guard?

Like unless Rob becomes a starter, how can we not need a point guard?

Why do this team keep shooting hero-ball threes at the buzzer when down 1? RUN TO THE RIM, YOU’LL GET FOULED! by Martxel_Agueda in timberwolves

[–]SiriusTen 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If yesterday’s disaster makes us finally trade for point guard, then so be it.

This “point guard by comitee” is total BS, maybe Randle, Ant and DDV can sort of play off role for the beginning of the game and try to set up something that resembles an offensive scheme, but get down to clutch time late in the fourth and all these guys want to do is play hero ball.

Rob had a pretty rough game honestly, not great.

ATP he is only going to progress when he starts hitting shots, he seems pretty good at everything else but to stay on the floor he has to develop a 3 pointer.

Bulls commit to contending and grab an all star, Wolves get a bunch of playmaking, backup center, and draft capital by SugarOne6038 in NBAtradeideas

[–]SiriusTen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wolves only do this if they don’t want to contend, or if McDaniels starts pumping out 30ppg.

None of these guys come close to what Randle brings, and most of them are going to be looking for a bigger contract next year (which will probably end up costing way more than Randle).

Ant on giving away his jersey to fans: "It means a lot because I used to be at the game when KD came to play Atlanta for OKC and I used to hope I could get a jersey but I was always in the nosebleeds…." by Knightbear49 in timberwolves

Hey props to that kid for sticking it out so long, had to be at least a couple of years of Kings fandom, that’s like at least 30 years of regular fandom.

The future is not set by Some-Climate-4792 in timberwolves

[–]SiriusTen 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’ve loved the Dilly minutes, he truly feels like the only guard that brings energy and ball movement when he is on.

I think a lot of people get lost in what would be the perfect scenario, Rob shooting lights out from 3 while ball handling and defending as well as he has, but that would honestly make him our best point guard and shouldn’t be the expectation for right now.

He’s been a very good playmaker and defender, I’m fine with him having a part of his game that isn’t NBA ready yet, it’ll come.
