The Wolves got whooped last year with Conley. They didn't play in any better in the regular season with Conley and the Nuggets beat them easily in the first round. I'm sorry, but this TWolves thing is happening with or without Conley. The Wolves are great and will be great because they have Ant and Gobert.

And I'm just going to mention it again for the last time: IT WAS NOT OUR CHOICE TO SEND CONLEY TO THE WOLVES IT WAS THE LAKERS.
We didn’t have to do the trade full stop.

Also with Conley it’s not just about his impact on the floor, more importantly it’s the heady headedness and the calming influence he brings to the locker room.
 
Conley is 36. He's supposed to fall off at some point. The reason that the Twolves are surging is because Ant is a superstar, McDaniels matured, and Gobert got integrated. I can almost forgive the Conley trade. The main issue was that D'lo Russell was becoming a cancer to that team.
And we removed D Lo..
 
I don't think DLo can be a true cancer. He isn't good enough. He's just a regular season player.
Still, by removing D Lo we helped them which is a counter productive thing to do when their picks are owed to us.

It was a gamble that didn’t pay off at the very least.

I don't think there is much difference in DLo/Conley when it comes to regular season wins. Maybe 3 more wins.
 
It was a bet as every trade Mike got injured here so it could work for us. But unfortunately Mike was healthy, shoot his best 3 points in career, teach a lot ANT specially on passing , optimize Rudy play ( pick and roll) and as Finch say at many itw, Mike was dammed important in the locker room and at clutch time. At the end, it become a terrible trade for us. And if i add NAW level up, it make it even worst.

It was an amazing trade for the Jazz regardless of what happens with the Wolves.
 
Funny that we are arguing trading Conley to the wolves when we should be arguing trading for Conley in the first place. We gave up two firsts and two pretty good role players. To me that trade was devastating. I didnt understand the logic then and I don’t understand it now, and all for a guy on the downside of his career
