Rumor from where?

I would guess Thursday is the day. That's when Knight and Chris can be added in a trade.

My guess is that this will eventually be anticlimactic and it won't solve much of anything in the short term. Yes, it will be a relief to finally move on from the Jimmy Butler mess, but we still have the Thibs and all the damage that has been done to team chemistry. That's not going away and we simply don't have the firepower to compete in the West this year, even if we do get a Gordon, Richardson, or Porter.

A long term Wolves employee that has been pretty accurate in the past.

I have yet to see any credible report say the Wolves have been even considering the Houston offer so i'm not exactly holding my breath. I'd be curious what Leado is referring to though!

If true, has to be the rockets. Im not thrilled with it, but can be more open to it if the last one in particular is fully unprotected.

Just want to be able to cheer for my faviorite team again can't do it with Butler there.

Well, I'll be there tonight... looking like a younger version of this guy...

This is ultimately where I'm at with it too. I'd rather be frustrated from poor play than have an arrogant asshole shit on this team publicly. Although, how will Thibs and Taylor be held accountable once Jimmy is gone? I think they're equally culpable in this mess.
