Wolfson also said recently that Towns, LaVine, and Wiggins aren't available for trade. He was pretty damn certain about it too. That's good to know.

I hope that is not the case. I would trade Wiggins or LaVine for Anthony Davis or Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Do you think Laker fans have an Ingram is a bust thread because he's shooting 35% at the 1/3 mark of the season.

Well, Laker fans also thought they were a slam dunk to sign Russell Westbrook and Kevin Love via free agency. I wouldn't put anything past that fan base.

I do get what you're saying, though.

Was I being sarcastic or passive aggressive?

Both. You hurt my feelings. Buy me a drink.

LOL - Consider virtual drink purchased, poured, and sent.

They just need to bump the Russell is a bust thread and start on Ingram.

Well Cam can be equated as a "brilliant basketball mind" since he suggested Dragic a couple weeks ago. Now Windhorst being a brilliant basketball mind...I'm guessing Wolfson meant as a reporter which I could agree with.

No way Towns Wiggins and Lavine are off limits? Wolfson better have multiple sources on that. I'm just shocked.

IF the Heat are looking to rank then to get Dragic I would think you have to give up good potential assets for him. That means first round picks or a young promising player. The Wolves don't really have picks that the Heat can get soon and so I would guess Dunn would be what they ask for and I don't think Thibs Layden are going to do that. A 3 team deal might work.

I like to hear that the Wolves are active on the trade market. That doesnt mean they are crazy buyers or sellers. Every year there are some under the radar deals that pay off in one way or another and let's remember the Wolves are a team with cap space so they can facilitate deals and get paid for doing so. Even picking up some 2nd round picks would be good since the Wolves gave up a couple for Tyus.

Ha, I know your comment is tongue in cheek, but it does bring up the topic of how bad this year's rookie crop is performing. Other than Embiid, who is doing anything noteworthy? Hield and Murray were two guys I'm guessing were considered for our pick, but they're both shooting worse than Dunn from the field...without providing anything close to the defense he provides. And Bender has been absolutely dreadful. It's early, but my takeaways on the draft are this: it's a weak class, and Thibs might have made the best choice at 3.

But to answer your question, I'm guessing there are bust threads in every city except Philly.
