At this point I am fairly confident we do nothing.

In past seasons, a deadline passing without a deal was always an anti climatic and kind of downer feeling. This year if nothing happens, I will consider the Sanders buyout and subsequent off season cap space as an optimistic development.

Maybe KG is looking to slide into a coaching position? If that's the case I think it's the perfect spot for him.

KG wants to become a part owner of the Wolves when he retires. He used to have a mansion out on Lake Minnetonka, maybe still? FWIW, I think KG got on better with Flip and Glen Taylor, then he did with McHale.

Who is attending the open practice?

Please provide insight as to who is there/not there to give us an idea of possible trade implications.

Hopefully. Trade deadlines would be boring and meaningless without Ersan around.. :lol:

I'm perfectly ok with that. See what we can get if nothing you're playing house money at this point in the season.

Yea you heard it on here. We offered them Ersan and LAC 1st for Kanter and they said no. Old news.

Nah his tweet was the reason that deal was first discussed on here...

Feel the same way. Nothing will happen.

Garnett is expiring, Young has a PO for 9M next year. I imagine he will exercise it and become a FA when the cap balloons.

Is anyone really paying Young more than 9 million? That seems like a stretch to me.

absolutely no interest in a #1 for stauskas. theres way too many better prospects we could pull than that guy if a #1 was on the table

I don't care enough but you could easily check the time stamps on both. Get out your magnifying glass and solve this mystery.

Not a surprise.

I guess nothing is better than a dumb deal.

Minimally I was hoping to clear Ers. He's been hot garbage so I'm not surprised we had no takers.

What about a lottery protected one in 2016, which is being projected as the weakest draft in a long time...?

Balls2TheWalls · Post #6877 » by **Balls2TheWalls** » Thu Feb 19, 2015 6:10 pm

I am glad there is nothing major happening. If we weren't able to make anything happen for Ersan, then there wasn't much else out there I was interested in outside of tossing Ersan/Knight/Clips 1st at the Nuggets for Lawson.

In his defense, he's been hurt. He was playing pretty well before getting that concussion in Cleveland.

Maybe Prince can help him resurrect what's left of his career...

Are our hands tied because Larry hasn't yet signed the buyout? Or is there just not a legitimate deal to be made?
