Thats unfortunate. Why can't we keep them and sign a big with the MLE? Sure we're small but so what?

Yes and yes, although I don't think Okogie or Culver have to be traded by the end of the night. But one or the other clearly has to be dealt I would think. Both are valuable rotation players at a small fraction of the price Rosas has decided to pay Beasley. And either one or both could easily end up a better all around player than Beasley - without legal risks and moral compromise. But who knows with Rosas.

Lip, its a 3 year guarantee. 4th is a team option.

Culver, Okogie and Ricky are probably the most likeable Wolves, but if I had to trade one, it would be Josh.

I think it'll be Culver if anything happens mainly because he has more trade value and his contract should be easier to pair with another to match salaries.

Once again, I'm at a loss for words. Gersson Rosas has earned the title Village Idiot. I don't know what more I can say. I do know that I'm probably done as a season ticket holder. The only thing that keeps me on after this season would be a new owner who fires Gersson.

then stop threatening to say it already and cancel.


So let me get this straight:

If you wanted to draft Wiseman, add another big like Bey at 17 and let Beasley go, who was starting at SG then?

Culver or Okogie? We literally already had 2 developing SG's on the roster prior to all of these moves. Now we have 4 SG's and Russell will probably get some minutes there as well playing next to Ricky.

If Beasley behaves himself (I know a big if), this contract is pretty decent. I think the most overpriced contract belongs to DLO unless he vastly improves his on court impact.

Told you!

I keep underestimating how stupid Rosas is turning out to be.

He is the guy who thinks he could emulate a Morey. When really he needs to be under a Morey.

It is hard to even fathom I could underestimate how stupid Glen Taylor is.

I would think the best deals for either Okogie or Culver were on the table or otherwise available last night. The frenzy and excitement of draft night opens trade doors that almost always close when the draft is over. Note also that every team in the League sees that the Wolves backcourt is overloaded and that Rosas is highly motivated to trade one of those guards. Safe to say, many of us won't like the deal when it's announced.

I'm at the point where I'm pretty sure we are just playing Josh and Edwards at the 3 this year and we are playing small all year.

I'm beginning to wonder if D-Lo bullied you or someone you know. The loathing is approaching irrational at this point.

And I disagree about Beasley. Even without the legal woes he wasn't worth that deal.
