Free Agency Thread

Being a bad Minnesota team is a really tough spot to be in. Extremely hard to get worthy free agents as better markets and money are out there to be had. Rosas totally struck out last year and it could happen again, it's one of the tougher sells. I had hoped that system guys looking good would inspire more interest but that didn't really happen last year outside of Beasley blowing up in the first half of the season.

I'm curious to see where Oladipo ends up. Gotta be a prove it type deal right? Or does he go for the security of a full MLE offer if it's on the table?

that's tough
pretty good chance Wolves were MLE offering team

… or Porter’s agent was lying about getting any full MLE offers.

Going to wait until the end of this week to say what I want to say about Rosas right now.

Stuff like this is toxic to the sport. Actually, it’s toxic to every sport. I really hope he doesn’t get a ring for his troubles.

Just woke up to immediatly check who we've got and....disappointment as usual. But's that the Minnesota free agent destination.

Honestly, I feel for Rosas. Must have been a hell of a shock coming from Houston.

That's the Timberwolves experience: From "will we get Simmons?" to "Markaanen at least provides spacing" to "okay JaMychal Green will do" to "damn, can we hold Vanderbilt?
