Damn. I hated ESPN insider for that reason, now I need to pay for draft articles.

This opens the door for some other draft team to step in.

Damn. Well, credit to ESPN. After being an NBA fan for 13 years, getting Woj + the DX team might finally get me to sign up for insider...

You could save us some money if you sign up for insider and re-post Wolves related articles here

Pretty stoked to read Kyrie name us as one of his possible destinations.

That's what trading for someone of Jimmy's caliber can do for an organization

At least i hope Kyrie doesn't go for a team in the West. Unless is us

Come on

Wish we had enough for Kyrie but besides Wiggs, all we have is Dieng and the OKC pick.

I think Wiggins is easily enough for Kyrie. The problem if we trade him is Crawford becomes our SG with only Butler as backup and we waste Teague as a backup.

Of course Wiggins is enough. I said I wish we had enough without including Wiggins (sorry if it wasn't clear).Even if we did Wiggins for Kyrie straight up, then Kyrie and Teague would become the back court starters, not Crawford.

Kyrie and Teague backcourt I just puked a little.

Kyrie is a 2 in a 1's body.

He's a big PG small SG. For somebody with the great handle he has he sure isn't interested in passing so what you say is kind of true. I just like having full sized players for the position. Teague is a little small but the team we have right now has nice size for every position.

Yeah I def get your point. Kyrie looks up to Kobe and emulates his game to Kobe's, which is straight iso ball. If Kyrie wasn't so atrocious on defense I'd be more inclined to do the Wiggins for Kyrie swap.

If we do give up Wiggins I will be very excited but nervous. I doubt Glen Taylor gives the ok to give up Wiggins even if Thibs is down with it.

He's not even a big PG, he's like 6'2

Exactly.

The Butler trade gets better by the day. Legitimately good NBA players are actually wanting to come here.

Lonzo brown got a 2 way deal from the raptors.

I thought hed be a good candidate for the 3rd pg spot or starting guard on the gleague team.

Maybe we just got the wrong Brown?
