Wow I never thought Minn could've spun Wiggins into a positive asset.
I will say those picks in 2021-22 should have alot more value than 2020 picks.

I legitimately do not understand why we traded Robert Covington now, someone please explain.

Great trade for Minny. I wonder what are the protections of that pick.
Edit: Top 3 protected. Still a good trade for the Wolves.

The Warriors bring players along. I bet Wiggins will be a better player around guys like Steph, Draymond, and Klay.

I can see Wiggins working pretty well and the third scorer on that team and a better team around him. But that contract... still don't love it, then again didn't love Russell's contract either.

Wiggins is a better fit though than DLo. And the pick helps them a lot with keeping their salary in line in the future and pick up depth. Or better.

There obviously wasn't a large demand for Russell.

I would love to see a Wiggins and Barrett backcourt. All CND Knicker Bockers.

The evolution of superstar Wiggins begins now.
Warriors won this deal. By a landslide.

wiggins playing with the big three in GSW probably gives him enough cover and he's likely to be effective.

If the Dubs can de-Wolvesify Wiggins he's actually a terrific fit with their healthy roster.

What if DLo doesn't have much value either, and GSW just finessed a bad team out of a first?

It isn't that hard to imagine Minny still being bad next year, is it?

What could we have offered though that would interest GSW?


NOT Andrew Wiggins. That was the answer. Offer them NOT Andrew Wiggins.


Realistically speaking, GSW wanted to take back an impact player under contract for the next few years, and a draft asset.

A guy like Knox, Frank, or DS JR. doesn't help them. They did not want a guy like Morris, Portis, or Randle either. They got someone they envision around their healthy lineup of :

Curry
Klay
Wiggins
Dray
X

I mean, Wiggins will need to place great defense and learn how to become a catch and shoot knock down guy.

Makes no sense except that Minny has no intentions of competing for a playoff spot this year?
I dunno.
