Thanks. I'm just saying that we're paying the max for the leftovers that nobody else really wanted. Kinda depressing that we gave up our lottery pick (let's be honest) for "the right" to pay that guy the max.
You do realize that the alternative was paying Andrew Wiggins to continue being a disappointment, right? Wiggins has one of the worst contracts in the entire league for what he produces. Oof. I digress...
I get the complexities of the Wig/DLo trade. Wigs contract is terrible. But what will it take for you to give objective analysis of DLo?
My objectivity hasn't wavered. I just find posters on this board making D-Lo the whipping boy comical, especially when there are other coaches/players that deserve a lot more criticism. But do you... Clown ass response.

He's been relatively slow for a while, but yes it's worse. All of the good instincts in the world cant make up for poor lateral movement and no strength to fight through screens.

Yeah, I get that. Part of what irritates me is that we only traded for him because he's towns last friend in the league. Towns isn't nearly good enough to be dictating who he wants on his "super team" lol. Yeah, he's better than Wiggins, you have a point there.
I love watching basketball and the Wolves are my favorite team, but I can't finish this. Terrible all around. Gotta try and hype myself up for Thursday

I'd love to know who deserves MORE criticism than Dlo when you factor in both ends of the court and their salary/expected role on the team. This should be good. Specific names please...
