My Draft Bladow, aka locking up next years #4 

Post#1 » by the_bruce » Wed May 20, 2009 2:53 pm

WAS GETS: Mike Miller + Gomes + Madsen + 3m
MIN GETS : Etan Thomas + Mike James + Stevenson + #5.

Griffin
Rubio
Thabeet
Jennings
#5 Harden
#6 Derozan
Hill athletic big man who oozes talent can GSW pass this up
Curry
#9 Evans

Foye + Stevenson + Telfair for Evans + Kapono

Kapono for Reggie evans. PHI needs to spread the floor and Kapono for Evans swap does this for them. It also gives MN a solid rebounder to fill in and same # contract years for a bit less money.

Smith #28 for yi

Mullens @18

Love/Mullens
Yi/R. Evans
Derozan
Harden/Brewer
Evans/Foye

My trades have virtually Guarenteed the worst record next year. This team is to young to compete, but with Al out this should be fun to watch! Plus it gives us some solid talent evaluation. Even though we will surely have the worst record. We will get the #4 pick.

Next year we develop our wings. Then the year after while Al is getting back to full strength we spend our #4 on whatever holes we have left and start to Gel as a team and develop our front court further. Use our cap space and youth to fill any glaring problems with trades/free agents. Then in 2011 we rock the house?

Maybe if we had a GM with a plan it would work.

regardless, looks like an NBA 2k trade.

I am a REALGM...poster. That's more than the TWolves FO has...*rimshot*

It would be to NBA2k ish if there weren't legit reasons why the other teams would make the trades. These are all win win.

Miller to WAS serves their needs in aquiring a SG to go with their vet core, save salary, and add solid rotation piece with Gomes.

Foye to TOR certainly works. He is talented, and ready to contribute now with their core. MN ditches out on his caphold and returns a larger 1/2 in evans.

Flipping Kapono to PHI is Genius. They have enough front court help with brand speights young daly and were horrible at shooting the 3 last year. Lessens the money MN pays in 2010 and increases cap space.

Smith #28 for Yi is also solid for both sides.

Would Taylor spring for a folding chair for Yi to go against in practice?

OJ Mayo is one of the best defenders in the league, hes a two way player and hes a great passer and playmaker.

Do not mock the chairman. He is at least worth investing in a wheel chair.

P.s.: You wanna see NBA2k!?!?!

#1 Griffin
#2 Rubio
#3 Thabeet
#4 Jennings

WAS GETS: Mike Miller + Gomes + Cards
MIN GETS: Etan Thomas + Mike James + Stevenson + Songolia + Crit + 5

Generates 4.4m tpe. Which is enough to get the wis under the lux tax I think. Plus gives them miller and gomes to fill sg and backup sf roles

#5 Harden to MN
#6 Derozan to MN
#7 Hill to GSW
#8 Curry to NYK

Mil gets: ~3m cap space, James, Stevenson, Songolia
MN Gets: #9(evans) + #10 (lawson), Stoudamire, ridnour, Gadz
TOR Gets: #5 Harden, Malik Allen, Elson

Mil gets under the cap to resign session/cv. Swap out ridnour for James. Gadz 2010 money swapped for stevenson & songolia

#9 Evans to MN
#10 Lawson to MN

#18 + smith + Bassy for yi + Hassell

#28 Derrick Brown

Lawson\Evans\Crit\Ridnour\B.Brown
Foye\Evans\Derozan
Brewer\Derozan\d.Brown
Love\Yi\d.brown
Al\Thomas\Gadz

Stoudamire(800k) & Hassell bought out(i think its 1m, guarenteed??)

Additional 2010 Capspace used ~7.2m, but still more than enough to be active in 2010 FA's.

Return to Minnesota Timberwolves
