We just swapped out a 3rd of our roster and we have no PG's for a late first round pick. WTF is this deal?

So Beasley is... fine. I guess. But he basically only shoots three pointers. He's had 3 very bad NBA seasons and one pretty solid one. He doesn't defend well. Doesn't rebound well. Doesn't pass well. And he's about to get paid this offseason. Probably triple his current salary? So doesn't that make him a very poor man's version of Covington? How much are the Wolves willing to pay to keep him?

Hernangomez's TS and eFG percentages are actually lower than Jarrett Culver's right now. I didn't know that was possible. Smokescreen from Rosas to hide the rook's shooting woes? Oh wait... Evan Turner's shooting is even worse. But obviously, he's just salary cap room... that's a good thing for future moves.

A mid-round pick from the Nets. Ok.

Considering Covington was THE top asset this team had... no sure things sans cap room... one guy about to get a huge raise... and a middling 1st round pick in a really bad draft...

Sorry. I'm not getting this one.

Seriously?

Kevin OConnor is convinced any deal with the warriors would involve Wiggins. Maybe this is the precursor.

The only way the Russell deal happens though is giving up our first round pick and given how big of a team downgrade we just made that's looking like potentially the number 1 overall pick.

Yeah I wouldnt be thrilled about it, but who knows. Im not that down on this deal. Covington was off this year and likely trending in the wrong direction as I see it. We got to stack a few young assets and save some money.

Maybe. But it's important to judge Beasley as a $7M or $10M (or even more?) player. Because he's a restricted free agent. Who cares about this season. It's already lost.
