I know that's the reason, but I was hoping we would be able to work past that. He is a excellent player. Will be really hard to replace.

Wish we could've gotten Oubre too though lol

We're talking about it. Doesn't mean we got him.


It's actually a done deal, Jon Krawczynski confirmed he is coming back,

What's the rest of the deal? Just JJ? Value is crazy good for us getting Rubio and the 2 FRPs for JJ and 17.

Edwards sounded intelligent and respectful in his interview with ESPN, maybe a little somber though. His answer to PJC asking what he needed to do to get better was spot on.

Its official? We lost the 17th? And JJ ballast salary for trades. So what are we gonna do for SF and PF?

Who do wolves like at 25 and 27? Praying Green and Mcdaniels or Terry.

Is Rubio a positive contract? He has an extra year compared to JJ, and he's way overpaid if he's not your full time PG.

Done with the Wolves if this is what we’re rolling with.

Draft Andrew Wiggins 2.0 with the #1 overall (we seriously couldn’t package our assets for Ben Simmons/Beal/even Marcus Smart?). Give me Marcus Smart over Wiggins 2.0, please.

And we decide to bring back Rubio, who is a nice guy, but is a terrible 2020 era player?

Rosas, you failed, amigo.

Why are we rebuilding a 2014 Wolves roster?

Free agents? Maybe vanderbilt and culver has impressed.

My feed is obviously way behind. You guys are saying picks a good 3 minutes before I see it.

Trading down for 25+28 might signal we were looking to reach picking @ 17. Hope I'm wrong.

With Beasley gone and Russell very comfy at the SG position Rubio can get 30 MPG easy.
