It seems there are plenty of unwanted bigs out there. WCS, Favors and Cousins are looking for homes now. Can we sign one real cheaply.

Not sure if any of those guys are great fits for us, but there is indeed a plethora of rotation-worthy bigs that could help us out next season without costing much.

Damn, thats a whole lot of money for a back up pg.

Tyus is going to look for a pay day.


Maybe...or teams spend their money on everyone else. Kings are loading up on vets. My friend that's a Kings fan wasn't a fan of the Ariza deal.

Yeah, tough to see Jones back at these prices, but at some point the money runs out, no?

BTW, it's incredible how Teague tanked his value last year with his "dribbling to nowhere" and reluctance to shoot the damn 3. Leave it to the Wolves to sign a well-regarded NBA PG and turn him into a negative asset in the course of two seasons.

Q it's more like classic Wolves PG not staying healthy that hurt is value more than anything.

Also worth noting that Tyus still gets to pick his spot. Does he want to leave his home state for a team that has a wide open spot at PG after this year and the vet in front of him is one of his biggest fans? Is there a better opportunity somewhere else than here? Maybe there will be but no Russell (and Taj and Rose) might mean Tyus stays here.

Mmm, he didn't exactly have a game-changing injury and if you look at his 2-year track record, it's not THAT bad compared to other PGs (Conley for example). I think had he adapted his game to shoot more 3's and make quicker decisions with the ball, things would have been different.
