Runaway vote for the Ewigma...far and away the biggest prospect of the Big 3 throughout his teen years, but also far and away #3 on this board.

I still love the guy though, and side with Cam and monster that I would trade none of the Big 3. With a gun to my head I would trade Wig for anyone that would make us better (sorry, my heart isn't in it enough to come up with specific trades).

We clearly can't trade KAT, and here's why we can't trade Zach... in addition to being one of the best athletes in the league, he's also already one of the best shooters at an age where that just doesn't happen. Look at where he stands in the league in these measures:

EFG%: .565 5th
3-pointers: .414 10th
FT: .882 10th
FG%: .475 13th
2-pointers: .522 12th

Exciting athlete, already great shooter with potential to be the best, potentially very good defender (although it's a struggle for him now) and great teammate...he will go down as Flip's greatest POBO move.

I voted for Wiggins...but I don't want to be the new OKC. They dumped Harden and it didn't help get them a championship. And yes they probably had to do it, still doesn't mean that was the route that our Wolves should go. Lavine should be in the conversation for most improved player in the association. He just *looks* like a soon to be star. I really have enjoyed watching him grow over the past couple years, especially the last 45 or so games.

Lip, thanks for the compliment. In all seriousness I would vote to keep them all right now. I think these 3 can coexist well together. I'd look to make other changes besides the big 3.

Rubio, Dieng, and Dunn would be players I'm more willing to move. No surprise there, but we should at least mention it.

For as great as this board perceives Dieng, what's his trade value look like?

That's a good point Cam. He's on a resealable contract. I think could find a better floor spacer or interior defender to play next to Towns. We could definitely sign one of those players as a FA and move G to the bench or move him for other serviceable pieces.

Lilliard was snubbed last year so I think he's yet to make one?
I'll take him for Wiggins and Rubio and watch this team go to the playoffs.

Two-time All-Star, Pork.

I suspect Thibs is highly unlikely to ease Gorgui. I recall Thibs going out of his way to publicly praise him as a guy who does things that don't show up in the box score. That's the sort of praise coaches reserve for their favorites. Then PBO Thibs signed Gorgui to a nice extension. So I just don't see Gorgui going anywhere.

If I had to pick a player most likely to be dealt it would be Ricky -- possibly by the Feb. deadline but more likely next summer.

Wiggins for Gobert or Greak Freak. To think, we drafted Bazzy ahead of both.
