Have to find a way to work it out with Rudy. IF not trade him. By the way, lots of people complain here about him but KAT is guarding Jokic and look like a kid.....

Can the Wolves survive a few minutes without Ant in the 4th?

Did anyone notice Gobert just gave Ant a easy lane? They are making a run with Towns on the bench. They are finally attacking Jokic (the middle) every time coming down. Gobert not having a great game but there is a lot other area we could focus on.

Ant seems to do way better when one big is out there. He needs the space.

Time to clamp Murray, he’s going to be coming hard in the 4th.

+1 That's the main point. It will never work with 2 bigs + Ant. Off season will be the right time to find a way...

Wolves need to switch up the offense now with DEN going small. They need to dump the ball into Gobert instead of Ant hunting

I love Naw’s tenacity on defense. Get him a shooting coach and develop the man.

Or move KAT. It's all about what you can get in return. But i agree with you, this trade was a mistake.

KAT is more exciting and splashy. Rudy does the hard stuff better like screening, rebounding, and defense.

KAT gets a lot **** for things he is responsible for. Offensive fouls, whining, health.
Rudy gets a lot of **** for things he didn’t do (yes he does some stupid **** too) like other guys forcing the issue on offense to get him the ball.

For the most part though, paying what we pay for bigs is kind of ridiculous. Bigs in the league as it is now are like running backs in football.

Denver is on EVERY loose ball. Every 50/50. Insane.

You won't get fair value for Towns. Too big of a gamble.

Just because Rudy doesn't fit here doesn't mean another team won't pay well for him.

Wolves fans always under value what we have and over value other teams players. That's part of the reason why we've been rebuilding for 34 years.

They might just float both out there and take the best return either can provide. I could even see them trading both depending on what they get back.
