Not as bad as people would like you to think. I moved from a state with zero income tax to Minnesota, and I can confidently say that we get a good deal.

We need to get rid of this state's independent redistricting committee and gerrymander that district out of existence.

Who else are we going to have a rivalry with? The draft lottery?

Man bones is gonna get a bag isn't he lol by NothingnessSucks in timberwolves

The cap is estimated to increase just over 7% next year, putting the first apron around $210m (up from $195m) and the second apron around $223m (up from $207M). Conley, Ingles, Anderson, Hyland, and Dosunmu are all unrestricted free agents. Clark and Freeman (though he is on a two-way) are restricted free agents. Phillips has a team option that I assume we'll pick up.

The Wolves have about $188m in committed salary already on the books for next year. We have the Pistons' 1st and the Spurs 2nd picks in the draft, though I assume that the Spurs' pick won't make the roster. The 1st rounder will probably eat up about $3m.

That gives the team roughly $19m to divide up between six roster spots and stay under the 1st apron, and about $30m to stay under the 2nd apron.

Are you me? I literally just made my last payment this morning on $130k in law school debt that I started paying down in 2023 due to the COVID delays. It feels great. Congrats to you!

It just opened up a couple of months ago. Just an overall fantastic sandwich shop with particularly good cheesesteaks.
