Around the NBA:2025-6

I've only seen the blowouts in this series.... Really lame

I love Devin Vassell. The Spurs won't be able to keep all those young guys, I'd target that guy.

Actually they will Cool. Looking at their salary structure, they could literally keep their top 9 guys for the next three or more years.

Really? I figure Wemby, Castle, and Harper will all be max guys eventually. And then you have Fox making big money, how do they pay Vassell and Champagnie?

Wemby, Castle and K Johnson are the only guys not signed through 2028-2029 and they have about 110 mil to stay under the first apron I believe. I think they can make that work.

My bad, I missed Champgnie and he is likely to get a nice bump so maybe the will lose a guy.

I’m also a Vassell fan and would love to add him to our roster. I suspect the Spurs will be more inclined to move Fox rather than Vassell given how well Castle is developing. But I’d be reluctant to do any deals with Conference rivals like the Spurs. Helping rivals to help ourselves seems ill-advised to me. I think the more sensible trades for the Wolves will be with Eastern Conference or perhaps the bottom teams in the West.

Our biggest ally in competing with the Spurs is De'Aaron Fox's contract. Let's hope some dumb Eastern Conference team doesn't bail them out on that albatross!

(Fox is a solid NBA PG, but we are starting to see his limitations as top playoff scoring option. I have a feeling he will be a hot topic of Spurs fans this offseason if they are to lose to OKC in Game 7).

Randle might need an apology considering Chet was even worse against Wemby
