My first post on this thread as far as I can recall. I might have made one or two when it first came out. Great trade for Beverley. Don't fire Rosas give him a raise and an extension.

Weren't you the biggest Rosas supporter on the board? Now he makes a great trade getting rid of two players we were trying to dump and getting a proven tough as nails vet? This makes you want to fire him?

I'm not being sarcastic at all. Getting rid of 2 players we didn't want for nothing would have been excellent. Beverley is quite good.

We should absolutely fire Rosas because he could not trade Beasley directly from jail, plus the worst shooter in NBA Culver and injured Juancho for a starting caliber PF.

You were probably excited, like a lot of people and bought into the propaganda they were pushing about how valuable he was to Brooklyn and that connection...of course that was BS and only the "vocal" minority understood he was unusable and pretty much done, but that was largely ignored.

Ed Davis was an incredible rebounder and I think a good shot blocker. By the time we got him he wasn't.
I presume you were part of the Vocal Minority that knew he now sucked.

He expected that Rosas would trade Beasley directly from jail, an injured Juanco and lost Culver for Simmons.

I am waiting for the inevitable 4 future 1st round picks for Simmons trade from Rosas…that will cement the franchise in mediocrity for the next decade.

This has to be his last prove-it year. Even I have to admit it has mainly sucked because the team he's built has been injured so much so it's hard to evaluate things in a proper manner. That said, this will be his 3rd year and the team hasn't really improved...so regardless it's on him. You wanna be a Wolves GM, you gotta deal with the curse.

I am with you here. I am both excited and scared with two opposite scenarios: first scenario Rosas make a homerun trade, find last piece of puzzle without trading our future, second scenario is trading our future for Simmons who will be disappointment.

Regarding price, I hope they wont trade McDaniels, I am okay if we trade multipe late 1st round picks and/or Nowell/Bolmaro /Reid. This is high stakes Business, and the price is high as well.
