GS wanted the 2021 pick all along, and I heard we gave up the second rounder as well. Incredibly stupid trade imo. I don't value Russell any higher than Wiggins, but I did want Wig traded at some point. I just didn't see the need to give up more than the Brooklyn pick. How many teams actually give up a potential lottery pick with so little protection?
The wolves for some reason took on 3 guys in the Cov trade that all need new deals next season. Why not take the Hou first rounder and offer that up with the Brooklyn pick.
Russell is a hard guy to watch play, and I don't see it getting any better with KAT. I predict 2021/2022 when Russsell and KAT both want out. Same time that Rosas is shown the door, and the wolves have nothing to rebuild with, not that I will be watching anymore. Maybe I'll join Cool, cheering for the bucks. Nah, that would be too much like being a cheesehead.
Sure hope I am wrong.
