Re: Expansion...Wolves moving east

Minnesota is a much better candidate than Memphis for several reasons 1. Travel Distance. The Wolves and Trailblazers are regularly at the top of the league in miles traveled each year. Moving the Wolves and inserting Seattle and Vegas centralizes travel, at a time when he league is focused on more ...

Re: Starting PG Trade Options

I wanted to mention that since Lonzo Ball signed an extension in February, he’s not eligible to be traded until August 6. This is an odd time of year that will likely crush his trade value. It’s five weeks after the draft, and a month after free agency. It’s during this period that teams form their ...

Correct, like Gobert last year, the extension means he’s legally ineligible to be traded for six months.

Re: Can this team really play defense without Rudy?

If you give up assets to get Durant, you’re trying for a championship and you want to keep Rudy. Also KD and especially Naz really need Rudy behind them. ?????? / Ant / McDaniels / Durant / Gobert (plus Naz) is a contending starting line up, with two top 15 offensive players, and two top 15 defensiv...

Re: Letting NAZ Walk...

The amazing thing that happens in this scenario is your salaries drop more than 4 mil BELOW the LUXURY TAX! Forget the Aprons, you are not even paying any luxury tax. This also means you have the FULL MLE at your disposal if you feel the need beef up the frontcourt, or add a PG because you want to ...

Re: Backup point guard options this summer

Without much cap space in the league, a lot of player movement will need to happen through trades, and teams and players will need to work together. Fortunately for the Wolves, MIN might be a desirable job to get a player paid next year, when there will be more free agent money in the league. While ...

Re: Letting NAZ Walk...

Does anyone know if there are any restrictions on trading Randle after he opts in? I wouldn't think so, I've watched plenty of podcasts mentioning trades and Timberwolves options and never have they mentioned a restriction. Guys in the know too like Windy and Marks. IDK for sure though! Correct. If...
