We've come this far and gone all in - let's just go get Kyrie and make a run at this thing.

This continues to be personal for you somehow. If you don't enjoy the board because of my presence or you are triggered by my responses to other people here, simply ignore what I say or leave the board. Nobody else will call you out on it, but this type of response is entirely uncalled for and it's typical of the personality you've always been here.

Let's not make this thread about anything besides Timberwolves basketball and the acquisition of Rudy Gobert.

It depends where they land. With our current squad the 2023 and 2025 picks will likely be late 20's. It's the 2027 and 2029 which we should be worried about. Cast your memory back when Houston were offering us 4 first round picks for Jimmy Butler and we all thought that wasn't good enough because they would likely fall in late 20's.

At least the 2029 has some protection (knowing our luck we draw 6th pick that year). And at least we didn't give up Jaden.

If we're riding with DLo this is the right move. Our team became even more interesting. The loss of draft picks aside, the NBA is about assets and no contract is untradeable. Gobert and Kat will continue to have a ton of trade value down the road as this becomes Ants team. Finchy's coaching is going to be put to the test.

Gotta assume DLo is going to be back at this point unless ylthe Wolves want Russell Westbrook instead. No... we couldn't. Could we?

You are so full of bullshit. It's not me or anybody else that makes every thread about DLO, it's you. I've tried to ignore you but it becomes impossible with some of the stupid things you say. I'll do my best to ignore you, I promise. But no more leaving the board for me. There are too many great fans on here to let you ruin it for me.

I would do that without hesitation. He or Kyrie

So Minott might as well get the Gupta special and Knight might as well make the team as the third big.


Now they need backcourt help. Big time. There's nothing there at guard outside of Edwards/Nowell/Russell/McLaughlin

Cry about it. You're far too old to be whining like a spoiled child that doesn't get their way. Enough is enough.

I respond to questions and comments that concern all matters of this franchise. I typically try to interact with everyone here instead of responding to a select few. Obviously, D'Angelo Russell is a polarizing player, especially on this board, so more discussions have concerned him. Your behavior is unacceptable. Move on already.

The hope is that there will be vets seeing what is happening here and be ready to jump aboard.
