I see Blatt going to the Wolves. That way he can actually install his offense and mold the Wiggins and Co young guns into championship caliber for the future.

From reports, Cavs didn't even run Blatt's offense that made him have great success with literally lack of talent during his Euro days. They ran a offense similar to Doc Rivers thanks in part of Tyrone Lue being an assistant. Not to mention the heavy ISOs and everyone clearing out for Lebron.

The Wolves would be a lot like the team he thought he was taking over in Cleveland before Lebron signed on (and no, not just because Wiggins is there).

Would be a solid fit, I could definitely see it happening in the offseason.

Man, the Wolves are going to look extremely deadly in a couple of years. Wiggins and KAT are extremely solid cores for the future.

Plus, Blatt is known (at least in his Euro hayday) for getting the most out of his talent with his creative offense.

I could see a couple teams going after him, I'd like the Pistons to bring him in just to help us vs Cleveland.

You know what's sad about all the Dre FT hoopla lately? Curry is shooting better than him from outside 30+ feet from 3 than he is at shooting a FT.

What in the world. It honestly is amazing.

Blake Griffin could be available... maybe will be another huge deadline.

Damn Bondom just said

"Kanter and Chandler are a wash"

Last year him and OKC fans were touting him as the center of the future, and now he's on par with a 33 year old declining center. Oh and they paid him. ............actually quite surprised given how highly touted Kanter was in the draft

Off topic a bit, but i think the NBA needs to put a restriction on how old you can be to go out for the D-League. Other then injury assignments (like how brandon jennings got sent down). First Baron Davis, now Keith Bogans. Davis at least had talent, Bogans was, at best, a role player.

when you have guys like adonis thomas that can light up the D-league but can't get minute on a real NBA team, really telling on how good these "role players" are. I am sure Austin daye is lighting up some rec league right now. lol

He's playing in Italy. Our League used to be good, now is very crappy. No money man.

He'd make our offense better, I have absolutely zero doubt about that. He's also going to cost a ton in this market, and his defense and rebounding sucks. He's definitely a worse rebounder than Ersan, and probably a worse defender, too.

He won't pump fake open threes, though. Can't argue with that.

Wasn't KLove beasting on the glass while with Minny? Like dropping 30 & 15 every other game. His defense is atrocious... but don't think you can call him a bad rebounder.

he's a terrific defensive rebounder. Which has tremendous value. It literally is the completion of a defensive stop.

At one point he was leading the league in rebounds during his MIN days. He gobbled them up.

But on a side note: Draymond is a star, which was well established during this season. He's the true evolution of the so called stretch 4 era. Someone that can get assists and pretty much do everything.
