They were stocked with young talent and draft assets when Thibs decided to reunite the aging Bulls, trading away much of that youth and assets. They rebuild from that mess only to trade youth and assets for a few more aging players.

I'm sure they believe this time will be different. Me, I've been around too long to fall for that again. I hope I'm wrong, but I'm not going to get emotionally invested.

I find it weird and unbelievable that Karl-Anthony Towns would want Russell gone. I don't think he was necessarily married to the idea of playing with him forever, but actively wanting him gone? I don't think so. And the rhetoric that Russell was a bad locker room guy seems wildly off too. How he talked about his teammates, how they talked about him. Seemed like good vibes, good teammate from a distance as well.

Just say you hated the guy and move on.

Ya know Cam, people are being extremely easy on you given all the DLO BS you've spewed over the past few years. Now that it's clear you've been wrong on 90% of it, I think you should be the one to "move on".

Shove it up your ass. The Timberwolves had more success in three seasons with D'Angelo Russell than they had in six seasons with Andrew Wiggins. That's all I need. That might hurt your fragile ego, but that's a fact.

I just think it's wild that we have you and others (FNG? LST? FNG? LST?) dragging the guy's name through the mud without any reliable reporting. "I heard it on the news." Welp, must be true.

Someone is wearing a ring and someone isn't. One guy is beloved by teammates, and the other wears out his welcome in every place he's been. One has a place to call home for the next several years, one doesn't. One poster (me) called this outcome almost to a tee, one other (you) was a dipshit regarding just about everything. One poster is happy as a pig in shit today, one probably couldn't get out of bed. Eat shit asshole.

Andrew Wiggins road a Hall of Fame core to the NBA Finals after shitting the bed as a core player in Minnesota and you're somehow proud of him. Guy was an embarrassment for six years on the team you supposedly rooted for. All that talent and physical ability with zero heart, zero nuts. Timberwolves had to trade a first-round pick just to get off of him. Thank god he was able to win with Steph Curry. So did Harrison Barnes. So did Otto Porter Jr. Yippee.

Also, what is it that you think I was actually wrong about? Minnesota was objectively better after trading Wiggins for Russell. It's not even close. That fact must piss you off every time it gets mentioned. Timberwolves lost 62-percent of the games Wiggins suited up for. Fucking yikes.

I'm basing my view on watching DLO interact with his teammates this season and also seeing him as one of one a few vets to came to Summer League. Everyone visible to me as a season ticket holder who say the team in Vegas tells me DLO was a good and well-liked teammate. I could be wrong because you never know what's going on behind the scenes, but I just don't buy it. But again, I'm glad the DLO drama is over. I'm ready to move on with Conley while continuing to believe this team needs to move on from Rudy.

This is rich. You're the guy who recently said you don't focus on one stat or argument when performing a complex analysis. You're pathetic. I feel sorry for you.

I voted "like" because I just assumed Dlo and Cam were a package deal. How naive of me... wishful thinking perhaps

Weird, haven't seen much of you around here this season. Where have you been? Actually, don't answer that. We know you and Cool are butt buddies.

I just happen to agree more with the way cool thinks for the most part. I'm sure you're probably a nice guy, but you have really bad takes on basketball.

If you knew anything about basketball, we'd know by now. That's not why you come here, though. You show up once every three months to talk shit and then dip. The cycle repeats itself.
