Feel like a part of my love for the Wolves is gone, really wanted Ricky to be in the playoffs as a Wolf.

I hope we can get Lowry now, or this is gonna suck even more

Hoping Aldrich was included, but that's probably too much $$ for Utah to take on

If true, i expect Thibs has a verbal commitment from someone. He wouldn't want to leap from one branch, before having the next branch close by.

OKC pick could be good. Westbrook could get traded before deadline if they aren't playing well. No one can expect another season like last year from Russ.
EDIT: ick. Lottery protected for three years, then turns into two seconds.

This actually makes me sad. Ricky is a good player but also such a fun player to watch.

This will be like when the Mavs let Nash walk to the Suns.

Really pissed off about this. Hopefully the Jazz don't lose Hayward and they can compete as well.

If we end up getting Teague after all this lowry hype, LMAO.

Thib please, sign Lowry...otherwise you are completely crazy...

Rubio :( my wonderkid...

Pretty disappointed :( Don't care for either Lowry nor Hill. Teague I could make my peace with.

This makes me sad. Rubio is a good soldier, and just wanted Minnesota to win. He finally got the to ponies to win here, and then we trade him? Seems like backstabbing, so no wonder Glen Taylor and his wife were opposed.

I wonder if this increases the chances that it's George Hill? I had heard that we weren't connected

Yep.

Really, I have mixed emotions on this. I really like Ricky and wanted him to taste the playoffs here but I do get the reasoning from Thibs. I'm also really glad all the non-stop trade rumors and arguments over his playing style will be done here.

I was hoping he'd go to either San Antonio or Utah so I can still root for him on a team I like and he should still taste the playoffs there.

Hill supposedly said he didn't want to play for Thibs so probably not.
