Nah, nba is no longer a big man's game. If cousins is available, I'd rather go after him. When healthy, boogie is just as good.

Might be a bit unpopular but I’d bring in Beal ahead of KAT.

So Towns is coming to us, I feel it. Ainge about to make another big deal with Minny.

Hayward + Brown or smart??? :D


I don’t know what it would take to get him but knowing Danny, he thinks he can wait. I wouldn’t. I would attach some picks and whatever it takes to grab him and pair him with Kemba and one of the Jays.

I’m all in on KAT, just as long as he’s willing to play here and not a year’s rental. :lol:

Read on Twitter

Would weaken Toronto even further once Kawhi leaves for the CLIPPERS.

Celtics have added rebounding. Now for some shooting please. I envied that Matthews for the minimum pickup by the Bucks.

We probably don't get him for the minimum. We are not a ring chasing destination

Beal is a player for sure, but kat would fill more of a position of need

Stop doing that! You might influence things too much and the next thing we know he stays in Toronto as we got to see him in the playoffs.

Okay....who are we getting today?

Options?

Expanded sign and trades?

Minimum contract guys?

A real Trade? Yabs and pick or something more significant?

Using this brilliant 11m mentioned on the other thread?

Historically there’s a point where Danny puts down the top 12 and starts looking at the deep bench... signing more summer league guys. Is that where we are now?

Does anybody follow Minnesota?

I know that they are looking to unload Wiggins, and that they just drafted Culver.

My guess is that they want to build around Culver and KAT because when you look at their roster, that's all they really have other than a few nice pieces in Covington, Saric, and Okogie.

They are a fringe playoff team IMO, but what does that mean for their future planning.

They are paying a ton of money to Dieng for the next two seasons, but most teams have at least one bad contract.

My guess is that unless KAT demands a trade, they are going to stay status quo because even though they aren't going to be competitive, they still have enough star power to get people in the seats.

And Towns doesn't seem like a "demand a trade" type of guy.

People are funny. IF the tweet was even true, James Stewart said we offered Tatum for Davis. Clearly they said no. Now people are offering Brown instead? That’s not how this works.

We couldn’t get the older, more injury prone & demanding a trade AD without Tatum but we’re going to get KAT for less now?

KAT must be looking around the league and see the power that star players have regardless of contract.

The question is he okay spending his best years playing under the radar because might not even make the playoffs in the next three years.

Western Conf

GS
Denver

Portland
Utah
OKC
San Antonio
Clippers

Those are last seasons playoff teams. Add in:

Lakers
Kings
Pelicans
Mavericks

What are the chances Minnesota realistically makes the playoffs or is even in the hunt?

Honestly that would be a real haul, but Minnesota wouldn't do it. I really wish the league would do something about teams like the Wolves and Suns, they are wasting prime assets and players that would bring in billions to other franchises (Booker, Ayton, Towns). Especially the Wolves, they are one of the worst run franchise in the history of the NBA (KG was wasted in his prime, Love would have been wasted if not for the Wiggins trade, and now they are doing the same thing to KAT, i really hate that franchise).

C'mon Karl demand that trade already, we all know that Danny let Terry go so you could get no.12 (His College number) lol.

Let's chatter this into existence boys :lol:
