Who is a better defensive PG than Beverly? I can't think of anyone.

Swapping Butler for Wiggins would definitely make us better in the short term. But I'm still taking a long view and for that reason I wouldn't do the deal. As I've said, I'd be open to trading Wiggins. But I have yet to come up with a realistic deal that I'd find acceptable. The deal I'd do -- Wiggins for Giannis -- is a deal the Bucks would never do. I find Wiggins both enticing and frustrating. Incredible talent, but something seems to be missing from his makeup. Then again, he just turned 22 so I can't completely dismiss the possibility that he becomes more than a scorer and more of a fighter. After all, Ricky significantly improved his shooting at age 26.

I just finished watching this game and reading this thread. A few thoughts.

Wiggins isn't going anywhere. Let's all agree the idea of him being traded is completely speculative. I get where people are coming from that would listen but the Wolves aren't looking to deal him and there is no way anyone is going to offer up what it would take to get him.

Ryan Anderson is insane the way he takes those deep 3's.

Interesting the Rockets played like this was a gam worth playing.

Dunn was a mixed bag but made some pretty nice plays and had to play a lot of his minutes against a tough defensive player in Beverly who got the best of him a few times. There were some positives he can build on from this one start.

Towns is an animal. Yeah he sucked on defense a lot of the season but damn the guy was going bonkers at times on the boards putting forth a ton of effort. Capella is a nice player he has a year of physical development on Towns and it will be interesting to see how Towns looks when the season starts next year.

Nice game for Tyus. He finished out the season with a healthy improvement stats wise. The guy turns 21 in a few weeks. I think he can still be a factor on the roster even next season.

I kinda feel bad for Aldrich in a way. He just sorta gets thrown out there randomly at times and it hasn't gone that well overall. People probably think he kinda sucks now but ai think he can still be a solid vet player for this team and if he isn't next year they can replace him with someone else.
