Hey y'all. Is that how it's spelled LOL. Minnesotan here living in AZ. After much deliberation with my fellow Real GM Timberwolves Message board friends we are strongly in favor of standing pat and taking Wiseman. The rest of the world thinks we're taking Edwards or Ball. So if we have anything to say about it :lol: (which we don't) you'll need to deal with the Warriors if you have any interest in Edwards. Good luck keep in touch.

KG you are really wearing out your welcome. I suggest you consider leaving. Your angle has gotten tiring. I usually light outsiders up when they become annoying ass trolls but I will just ask you nicely to leave and please stay on your own board or come here and just be a regular poster and not an annoying troll with an agenda. We already stamped out all of the Trae Young trolls. Don't be next

There is only 16 votes at this moment, but post of people want à second playmaker. So, What do you think about Hayes? This guy will be able to create and score when Trae Young will be out the floor. So I think you should consider him as a serious option for your front office.
Frank Ntilikina is a play-off player, but he goes to the Hornets.

Paris 2024 (Starters):
Ntilikina - Malédon - Hayes
Coulibaly - De Colo
TLC - Rupert or Risacher
Wembanyama- Yabusele
Embiid- Poirier - Lessort [without Embiid: Fall]

We actually do have this kid on our radar. He is a bit unpolished, but has legit talent as a lead guard -- whether it's as PG or SG.

There's a more in depth discussion here.

Not trolling one iota. Just having some fun discussing player options with you guys. Ken I have no problem with you at all. However, you can light me up if you want. You can ignore me and let others who enjoy chatting with me chat with me. All the best to you.
I remember all the people hoping for Young to Fail after his poor Summer league. That was terrible. I'm so glad he worked out very well for you.

The Trae Young are usually Lukastans wanting to add their two cents when no one asked for their opinions much less bothered to want to hear their opinions on a team board.

As far as trolling. We kindly told you are opinions for each of your questions and you hammer your trash posts to us anyway when we kindly told you we aren't interested. It's a lack of message board ethics as an outsider you just lack or aren't aware of.

When people say no, they mean that ****

I think Hayes is the best pg in this draft.

I'll just give your board what you been giving us. I will go to your board offer John Collins for KAT. If you disagree, I will say the trade saves you a lot of money, JC is the perfect fit for LaMelo Ball, and that you can use the money to sign AD or someone like that. I continue to push that stupid **** to the annoyance of all T'Wolves fans. If called out, I'll just call you a hater

It's cool. Now that we're all friends things are getting too quiet. Just keep Ball as far away from my team as possible and I won't be too disappointed with anything else that happens.

Why don't you want Ball (besides the Dad stuff), strictly basketball reasons, why?

He sucks is the primary reason. The biggest reason he sucks is that he has the most broken shot I have ever seen on an NBA prospect. He can't defend at all. I don't think he is at all what we need to add to the team. Just going to take time away from players more deserving to play.

Ball helps MIN but he has warts just like every other player in this draft.

And, to answer your question KGda, the kg in my username is just my initials. Not an homage to Garnett or Lebron.

Thanks. Ball rebounds well and is a creative ball handler. To me that doesn't overcome the Warts. At least not for a top 10 draft pick. Much less for a guy to be considered #1 overall. I would prefer Killian Hayes as a PG which is about the last position we need.
