I think this trade signals that Naz is a lock to be resigned, unless maybe Randle shows himself to be an amazing fit this year.

A deal needed to happen before the new NBA year started. It would now need to be a one for one swap for the exact same dollar amount. I don't even think there is a scenario in which more teams in the trade could make it work.

Any clue how Finchy's relationship with Julius was back in Nawlins? Coach seems to be able to get players to do what he needs them to without discontent.

Now we have to Randle plays just good enough to swap him out for picks /expirings. You're telling me that if the Wolves made this trade ...

Because they don't get Bridges without those assets Need to stay ahead of that, as Tim Connelly. One pick wouldn't have changed the outcome for Brooklyn Yes it would have.

Reminds me of the KG trade. Trade with Boston after they trade their best asset to Seattle for Ray Allen. Why not do this before they trade all their picks to the Nets?
