And even with all those picks, it would be nearly impossible to get MIN to agree to a trade. I’m not saying OKC couldn’t put together an offer with more net value in a vacuum, but the Minnesota franchise couldn’t afford to trade away this popular a player, with such a bright future.
In other words, if MIN is worth $1, the Thunder could add together enough nickel dime and quarter assets to total $1.50, and the Wolves would still say no. I think this it’s important to remember, that the huge war chest doesn’t mean OKC can have any star, and perhaps it’s why we haven’t seen them turn those assets into a star.
I was meaning Presti would actually have to do the calculus on a J-Dub +.
