The Wolves can roll out...

 

PG - Rubio

SG - Lavine

SF - Wiggins

PF - Thad Young

C - Pekovic 

 

 

Actually some nice potential there to build on. Still not a playoff team in the West IMO, but all sides came away winners from this it seems. 

I still cannot get over how miserable LaVine acted when his name was called. Maybe he'll grow on me, and maybe he'll be happier to be playing alongside Wiggins, but no matter what BS excuse he comes up with about "being overwhelmed" and how he wasn't "unhappy about going there" I'm not buying it. I like this team but right now I can't cheer for LaVine.

Yeah he may be happier now that they have Wiggins...but that look was one from a dude PISSED he was going to Minny, and who couldn't wait until his contract was up.

I don't get it honestly. If you enter the draft, especially as an early entry, you better be cool to go ANYWHERE. and if not, at least know how to act like you're cool with it when they call your name on a national broadcast.

So basically Minnesota got two potentially good players and a pick for one star player. 3 for 1 which could be a steal for the T'wolves.

Wiggins may take time to develop but should be at least starter material.

I know Bennet had a horrible rookie season but he lost over 20 pounds and has looked great in the summer league. I predict he will improve greatly this year.

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Jeremy Fowler: Panthers draft day intel

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
