I like the fit with Minnesota however. I also oddly think Wiggins might prosper with GS.


Well he got his max contract and now gets to play with his boy KAT. Not overwhelmingly horrible for DLo.

Knicks dodged a huge bullet.

The Wolves are must see TV now. They legit might not win another game this year. Minus Covington, Plus Russell. That defense doe

Should of done that with Russell then who is a better player


Has Russel ever played on any team that has won anything? Even a team that's won 30 games? There's a bit of emptiness to that as well.

I'm actually pretty shocked and happy for Minny fans.

This is literally best case scenario.

I'll eat crow and say that I thought it would take a lot more.

Russell
Beasley
Culver
Hernangomez
Towns

+ a top 5 pick.

Not bad, not bad at all.

Weird Russell ever signed with the Dubs. Should have just gone to Minnie from the get go.

Might be a pretty decent return for the Dubs, hasn’t Wiggins improved a bit?

They didn’t know it would work I don’t even see the Nets pick from the Covington deal involved

It might be time to send Myers out to pasture.


The new Harrison Barnes seems more likely.

I'm definitely embracing this. They need to add some depth though.

So Warriors also get a top 3 protected Minny pick too?? What are the odds that pick winds up being in the top 5, like 50%? Wolves have KAT and DLo and unproven young players. Wow.

I wouldn't make any rash judgments until I see Wiggins play with Curry and Klay.

This trade is abysmal for the Warriors.
It's like the worst case scenario for a D'lo trade.

not really if you look at the fact that Wiggins started the season really better than any other season and showed what he can do when motivated. His problem has always been an unwillingness to play to the last whistle when he doesn't have faith the team around him can win it all.


I don't trust player with no motor to become good.
And even if Wiggins becomes good, this is bad value for the Warriors, they could have gotten more. D'lo may not have huge value, but he's a positive asset, while Wiggins is widely regarded as a negative asset. The difference is only a protected first? I could have accepted the deal with something like 3 firsts with light protection, but this way it is ridiculous.
Also, Spellman is good, no idea why they wanted to give him up. At least they managed to include Evans who is absolutely terrible.

There's not a lot of protection on that pick: Top-3 in 2021, unprotected in 2022, and from a team that never makes the playoffs no less. This has a chance to turn out really well for Golden State.
