I'd like Isaac. Or trade back and take Zach Collins.

I'm so pissed and sad. We just dealt the best player we've had since Michael Jordan for a **** package, and the guys calling the shots are not only highly unlikely to lose their jobs -they are probably going to get a pay raise in the end. I can't understand how some of you can be OK with this deal. It's atrocious.

Don't worry. King will be all over LaVine, loving him long time.

Were they talking to Phil Jackson or a Kings scout?

Not giving up our pick, and possibly moving up, along selecting Isaac and this would be decent, but way too much to expect

Young talents? He's 29.

I am shocked by the people praising this deal I don't see why people thought we need to do this

Post #373 » by **Payt10** » Fri Jun 23, 2017 12:09 am

I bet we get Zach Collins.

Thibs is not only a better coach than Fred, he's also a better GM than GarPax.

They gave up 16 to get LaVine and not Rubio.

They gave up Butler to get Lavine, Dunn and #7. They gave up the 16 cause they suck at their jobs.......

Trust partially regained.

I am happy as well, it was time. The trade is whatever it is.

It would have to be a home run pick at number 7 to even break even to me. Lavine is coming off ACL surgery. Dunn was pretty bad last year.

There are alot of question marks.

To me they blew it by also giving up #16. That was stupid.

Gonna be honest, I'm selfish, if this is the only way to move into a rebuilding direction, then so be it. The trade is awful, no excuse, I'm just happy that this saga is over as a fan.

I think everyone is emotional now, but I'm going to wait a few days to full process this trade. I know for certain this isn't the best we could have received back from the Wolves, but it's not the worst. I think we did about B- in terms of return.

My god, I couldn't be more pissed. To not get a top 3 pick for Butler and then to include the 16th pick? Just completely awful, and what makes it worse is that the primary piece of this trade is an athletic player coming off a major injury.

Gar has outlived a coach that was more valuable than him, and a player that was more valuable than him. Now that coach got the last laugh.

**** you, Gar.

Giving up the 16 pick was just icing on the cake, in case anyone might doubt that we are run by idiots.

I like the trade for your team. If you play your cards right you'll be in contention for the top 3 pick next year.

Don't think picking between ayton, porter or doncic isn't enticing.
