I don't know why Pau would want to come here so why not throw a 2 year max offer to make it worth his time?

I'm just feeling left out right now.

Haha, I feel the same but am not quite that desperate.

Smart NBA person reminds me Thibs won 62 games w/ Bogans starting 82 games 2010-11. Today not a disaster for #Twolves. Made offers, missed.

Eric Gordon to Houston, 4 year, 53 mil

I'm glad we're not getting tied to these mediocre players on 4 year 70+ deals. Scary for next year as we will probably lose Dieng.

So I guess we can all relax about that coaches worry about winning now while PBO's worry about long term success with Thibs in both jobs! I'm not really bothered by the Wolves sitting out the insanity that has taken place this past 24 hours, at least they're not saddled with a contract they're going to regret as soon as this upcoming season and they retain plenty of flexibility moving forward.

I'd rather be a young Wolves team with all kinds of upside in addition to cap flexibility than a Knicks teams throwing too much money at players in the hopes the can be competitive, yet still with no real chance.

That seems like a fair deal sort of a decent gamble. Gordon if he can stay healthy is a really nice player. If he was healthy he would be getting more than twice that.

I will say the majority of guys signed are likely starters for their new teams. It can be argued that the Wolves have their starters, so we need the FA starters cleared from the field, and then they can work on their bench signings.

What's Jeff Adrien and Robbie Hummel up to these days?

Last I heard Adrien was smoking crack and making incoherent tweets.

Don't feed him anything Matt, his restraining order is still in place on Adrien!
