I like the first deal, but surely Yi wouldn't come to Minnesota. It was made pretty clear before the draft that he didn't want to go to a smaller market team, but the bucks went ahead and picked him anyway. I'd be all for it if he was willing to come here.
Not a fan of Williams, but CDR could be interesting. In a smaller deal with Bassy or Brown involved I'd be tempted, but not for Foye.

the NJ deal doesn't include Foye. I brought up a Bucks deal involving him.

Re: MN - NJ
I am very hesitant to move Foye. But if we could get a specific guard like Curry/holiday/evans with the pick then I would be tempted. Considering Foye is older than our core and his contract is soon. It makes sense fiscally and long-term even if we likely lose out on short-term talent.

No to Yi.
I don't like him, he does not play good basketball, so a no to both trades

Re: MN - NJ
make way for the realest gm (hypothetically)with the best trades..i should be running the wolves
how about this 3 way deal (i dont like yi and he most likely dont want to play for us)
deal works for everyone if golden state still maintains that crush on yi
telfair, craig smith, mike miller to nj
brandin wright, sean williams and bobby simmons(fa in 2010 like miller) to mn
yi jianlin, 2010 utah or 2009 28th pick to gs
take harden and whoever is left from lawson, maynor, holiday, flynn, teague
then sign gortat or birdman or
trade cardinal, madsen, utah pick or 09 bos pick for dalembert
then we are set for next year!!
jefferson gortat/dalembert s williams
love gomes s williams
b wright /brewer/simmons
