We don't have room for anyone else. I just hope Bolmaro will be worth it. I'm gonna peep Barca games for him

Sure we do just cut all those guys that could
Barely get on the floor on a 19 win team last season.

But I guess Bolmaro might close some mouths at its due time.

Aiyä! guys... most of you probably don't even remember me.

But I'm ready to bandwagon the tundra again.

How do we take on Rubio’s salary without moving any out?

Great gamble at this point. Crazy immature but get him in good structure there's so much potential.

Very good question. I'm no cap expert. We plan on not signing Beasley?

I like taking this shot on him. One of the only picks I've liked. Reminds me of taking Nowell in second last year. Redeeming late picks.

Rubio being back should bring some fans back in the house. Also, this is a prime breeding ground for the Timbertrolls. Rubio, hodgepodge wolves roster, and a possible unpredictable Beasley.

Im not even a fan lol, but decent player and a decent fit in position of need, constantly talked about as realistic trade option.

There is almost no question that Minnesota sent out James Johnson; it doesn't work otherwise.

Yeah. I don't get that. He must be included.
