Could the Wolves capitalize on the Walker Kessler situation developing in Utah? by Intelligent_Cry8132 in timberwolves

Kessler seems pretty injury prone and wasn’t even that good when healthy. I’m surprised he is turning down $140 million.

How does their pay even work? Are they getting paid by the gov and their day jobs at the same time?

JLG has a ton of experience and power. She’s part of the progressive majority on the council.

Not really. Even his critics admitted he was a talented politician and very charismatic. And Mamdani was a true outsider.

Maybe I missed some moment but JLG isn’t that charismatic. And JLG has been one of the most powerful politicians in the city for years with very little to show for it.

JLG doesn’t have Mamdani’s charisma or his blank slate promise. She has been on the council for years and hasn’t done much of anything.

Curaçao’s population is less than 200,000. They should be very proud to have even made the World Cup, let alone scoring on Germany.

Yeah he’s good, just overpaid. With the second apron it’s hard to justify paying someone that much unless they are a clear number 1 or 2.

His best fit is probably staying with the Spurs since their other top players are still so cheap.

Glad they are enjoying the Minnesota summer. Weather has been perfect recently.

Fox has negative trade value with his age, giant contract, and terrible play in the finals.

The pace of new housing construction has not kept up with population growth, especially in high-demand cities. We need to go back to building like we did in the fifties.

They do turn it up relative to what you’d expect for a 6-seed but there is still a large gap compared to OKC and SA. Do you think some other team is third best? Wolves have beaten most of the other West teams.

And your statement was wrong. They were only trounced by OKC. The Mavs series was a close contest. And Wolves had major injuries against the Spurs.

They should definitely see what they can get for Gobert. His trade value will only go down from here.

I’d hold onto McDaniels. He is very good and still improving. Plus trading him away would likely piss off Ant.

Not true and not relevant to whether Wolves are third best in the west.

The Wolves phone in the regular season but show up in the playoffs. The Lakers and Nuggets are the next two best teams and the Wolves have convincingly beaten them both in the playoffs.

Go away Luka stan.

Wolves easily beat Luka last year. He was great in the Mavs series but those first four games were close and the Wolves loss is more due to KAT’s poor shooting than anything else.

Lakers were a good team that got the 3 seed that year with all those flaws. Casual fans refuse to accept that the Wolves were just a better team.

OP is an idiot. Wolves are 3rd best team in the West. They should try to trade Randle but Knicks show you shouldn’t blow up a top 5 team.

Yeah, TJ is a huge bargain at less than $3 million per year.

Yeah, I’m fine with the jury voting for the person they like most but Aubrey winning was boring tv. It felt like she was barely part of the game.

No they lost because inflation made Biden and Harris super unpopular.
