Of course you start with insults. Shocker.

Minnesota would do everything possible to go get Russell if he is indeed available. There is no market for dumping Wiggins contract without taking salary back. If it does exist, it would probably cost at least Covington and/or a 1st. There is zero market for dumping the two years and $34 million left on Gorgui Dieng's deal. Waiving/stretching it still costs Minnesota $7 million a year which doesn't get them close to Russell space.

You don't think Minnesota would value Russell over Covington and Saric? Even you have to acknowledge that Minnesota would do pretty much anything to add somebody like Russell if Russell indeed wants to go there.

NAOS - where the small brain only allows for insults instead of quality input aimed at helping the franchise.

No, Covington is the better player.

Why in the hell does Minnesota want a chucker PG over their best defensive player? They dont need more offense.
 
I want Russell but I think Conley allows us to compete better in the short term while this window is open. His contract runs out in two years too

Maybe you should do some research and reading.

https://dunkingwithwolves.com/2019/...ves-how-could-wolves-acquire-dangelo-russell/ Just check out how many steps it would take for the Wolves to get the money for Russell in this convoluted mess. In my trade, Minnesota surrenders zero draft picks, but they get Russell.

https://zonecoverage.com/2019/featu...be-part-of-gersson-rosas-plan-for-aggression/
“We’re going to explore every resource, whether it’s cap space, whether it’s sign and trades, whether it’s market trades, whatever the case may be, draft trades, we’re looking at everything,” was how Rosas put his vision for the offseason. “We have to utilize every resource, we have to maximize every opportunity. And that’s one thing Timberwolves fans should know — in this office, we’re going to be looking at everything possible to help this team next year.”

But hey, there's no way Minnesota wants to add that "chucker" by losing Robert Covington...

Just provide something of substance. If you want to destroy the idea, provide information why.

Cheap shots without any backing do nothing but deter others from discussing ideas in this forum. I bet we would have 10x as many people posting and providing interesting chatter if guys like you were actually productive instead of just insulting.

Minnesota rumor + Memphis rumor + Utah rumor = ideas. All three aspects of this trade idea exist. It's not like I'm creating this rumor mill. I'm just throwing an idea out there to combine the reported interests of all 3 teams.

Minnesota won't create space without sacrifice. Memphis won't trade Conley without compensation. Utah won't add Conley without sacrifice.

Disagree Ron. The stretch 4s we’ve tried suck balls. Harris is not to lay a sweet shooting spacing 4 but an elite playmaker PNR ballhandler. He’d look like an all star in our system

Russell doesn’t get to the line. Both their defensive capabilities suck

Tobias does not really get to the line either. Russell has more potential to improve on that based on the number of drives he has.

Russell and Tobias got about the same points per possession in pick and rolls despite the fact Russell ran a lot more of them which drives down efficiency plus had worse teammates around him. They shot about the same FG% in these situations but Russell got more assists.

Stats say they are about the same in pick and roll as the ball handler. Russell is much younger and improving. He also had worse teammates around him so I expect him to improve.

If Tobias is elite playmaker PNR ball handler then so is Russell who again has more upside. And again fills a much much bigger need for our team.

Tobias has always been a bad defender and has been in the league a long time on a lot of teams. Russell has been on two teams and is very young. I still think he can improve on defense. He looked better on defense in the playoffs than he did earlier. He was okay there and has good length. He is an improvement on defense over Rubio.

Yeah, because Minnesota doesn't want Russell and Memphis doesn't want picks for Conley.

It's okay, I'm sure you have the solution for Minnesota to be able to create the $30 million necessary to sign Russell without giving up anything they actually don't want to give up.
