I hope it was a mistake and we still have his rights.

Best player from all those trades outside Dlo, a better shooter than even Dlo, gave up that pick to Denver, absolutely needed 2 to 3 better shooters on this team and having him almost felt like it could be enough alone to make the difference. It royally sucks to just lose him, lose the bird rights, walk away. Then draft a 29% shooter. My hope for the team is a bit devastated by it really. Hopefully things look better by the end of the week.

All of the good vibes from the 1st pick are gone if we lost Beasley for nothing.

Why is everyone assuming this?

I was going off this:

Might be fake news though... sounds like deadline is tomorrow.

Will we see one of Okogie and Culver traded now that the Wolves are adding Rubio (allowing Russell to play some SG) and Edwards?

What pick is it at right now? He's still available?

KGdaBom · Post #426 » by **KGdaBom** » Thu Nov 19, 2020 2:15 am

Halliburton goes 12. Nesmith still available.

Pass on LaMelo? Check

DLo needs a compliment that will play defense for him, and doesn’t try to be a star? Ok, let’s get Rubio.

Maybe we feel it's a smart move, structurally.

Personally I don't put a lot of stock in defense at the 1 spot, and acknowledge I may be in the minority there. However, if as coach/GM you're worried about our capability to defend the PnR with a poor defensive guard and a poor defensive centre then I can see the sense in the move beyond just keeping DLo happy.

I think there's still a few moves to come for us between now and the tip off in December.

Nothing officially yet but over 10 teams did their QO’s today and the wolves didn’t say or do anything for Beasley or Juancho.

Deadline is tomorrow

I was going off same. Hopefully fake news. Still a concern with the legal stuff but would still rather have him locked in short term not knowing.

Whats the odds Pokusevski will be there for one of the picks we take from OKC?

With Rubio, Nesmith shooting is needed

Hoping for culver, jj, plus those 2 late okc first rders for Aaron Gordon, it would make my night...

Neeva · Post #436 » by **Neeva** » Thu Nov 19, 2020 2:18 am

Boston probably takes Poku:/
But if he is left at 25 make that pick!!

Well they may have been waiting to see who they get in draft or trade. Since they took a Guard with #1 overall in Minnsota that means 30+ minutes and since he can't lead an offense with any kind of brain he basically is going to take all of Beasley's minutes to play the 2 guard role. Dlo and Ricky will be the PGs. Beasley's probably out I guess. What a mess.
