But I still wish they do the trade with NYK. I think BR/Belly/Bazz/Payne for for Rose/Anderson/two-guys-the-King-of-Williston-is-sick-of would have been a good move long-term, even with how well B/R has played the last 20 games or so.

Even though I know even less about College BKB than I do in previous years, which is saying something, I am so looking forward to this draft. Imagine MIN with a top 3 pick but not having an obvious hole? Priceless. Prediction: They draft someone who is a pure 5, to fill the role Aldrich didn't, and maybe start so KAT can play the 4, where his minutes are HOF-level.


Nice Williston reference. I've been there a number of times and seen most of that area. One guy got to know one week I worked in that area in the late 90's had a strange and amusing collection of Yugos and he drove them.

Who is Anderson from the Knicks in your trade?

First of all, I don't mean to be a snob, but when Mr CHI/LA/NY/SaintBaartz who thinks he invented the sport grew up in a town that didn't have indoor plumbing or pavement before 2008, I tend to want to point that out.

Gulp....Justin Holiday. His SF minutes have been solid, so same boat as Bazz (an expiring who will get a good contract). Maybe scratch that, but If they don't like Bazz, they are going to need someone. And Wiggins' best minutes at SG for the 2nd year in a row (with a much smaller sample size this year compared to last). Maybe BR/Belly for Rose/Jennings?

The weird thing about Phil is he has signed and brought in some solid rotation guys nobody really has heard of. Holiday is one of those guys.

I wouldn't do any of those deals partly because I value Belly and before he got hurt he was showing why. Since that trade Rubio has played better than anyone in that trade and Jennings has been brutal since joining Washington shooting a Twins CF battering average.

Hey, did you see game 162? Buxton's ITPHR was the coolest play the Twins have had since Willingham's home run off of Chapman in CIN. If you didn't see it, youtube it. The best part is when he rounds 2nd, and the CF doesn't have the ball yet, Bert goes "Uh Oh". Classic.

Thanks for mentioning that I had not seen it. Good stuff. I believe in Buxton becoming pretty good.
