Your infatuation with Bones reminds me of the love letters I used to exchange (well, it was really just one-way) with Robbie Hummel and Jeff Adrien back in the bad old days of this franchise. I know I wasn't at my best mentally back then and have since matured a lot since the restraining orders were put in place. Let me know if you need some advice or just a friend to lend an ear to whatever troubles you might be going through. ;)
Hummel was a board legend lol

Let’s not pretend that most of these free agent PGs avoid the wolves because we already have some daunting PG duo of Conley and Dilly… they don’t want to come here because it’s MN. I don’t think any decent PG is afraid of not being able to get minutes here. We actually have a pretty good opportunity for a rotation PG spot.

He is easily my favorite former Wolves that now is a broadcaster.

If Jmac is willing to ride the pine, he has proven that he is a competent backup and knows the system. Would be a pretty seamless fit if something were to happen to Rob or Mike.

Brogdon is probably the best player on the list. How many games would the Wolves get out of him? Bubble wrap him and save him for the postseason!
I went with the same two in the other thread, Volans...either would be fine. I'm also okay with going into the season with Mike and Rob.

Same but full disclosure I don't know a couple of these guys either! I don't watch other teams other then the Wolves, whoever is playing them.

Brogdon is my top choice. I wonder how he would be not playing though IF both Conley and Dilly are playing well. Something to factor in. I'd like another PG but a guy good enough but not so good that he expects to start or even play every game. So IDK.

Dilly was an 8th overall pick though, he's going to get his opportunity because of that. I kind of do think we have just enough talent and depth because of those two, however we are unsure on both as well. It's kind of tricky I think.

Yeah, we have two potential starters but also two guys that could even potentially be out of a rotation (for different reasons) if there was a better 3rd option. Hardly an uninviting opportunity for a guy considering the vet min or even a TMLE guy. Just my opinion.

Oh and NO Westbrook. Absolutely NO. If they sign that guy I am absolutely done

Not necessarily a point guard, but Minnesota born Amir Coffey is looking for a team. His teammate Ben Simmons is looking for a team as well, although he can't shoot. He can defend 1-4 though.

Well FA PGs didn't come here last offseason specifically because Dillingham was drafted. Conley was coming off a better season but Dillingham isn't a rookie. Most guys will see signing here as the 3rd PG and their might be less opportunity at SG than last offseason with the emergence of Clark and TSJ has already shown he can probably play.
