He looks shot and has always been a pain in the ass. Juice ain't worth the squeeze anymore.

Throw Cousins in the trash heap with Blake.

Why are casuals always trapped like 5 years in the past? Do they hibernate os?

Yeah, Cousins is a head case who can not defend a chair and his attitude is terrible.

You do not want someone like that on your roster...not even as a 15th man.

Have to give credit to both persons in the picture.

A few players I would prefer on the team right now above others (taking into account experience and fit as well):

Paul > Rubio
Bridges > Warren
Crowder > Clarke
Payne > Melton
Johnson > Jackson
Smith > Bender
Winning > Losing

No. I would only try and sign or trade for a player that are no-brainers. Cousins brings in too much baggage for a team that's only just starting to build chemistry. Foundations are too shaky to just add pieces because they are available

Looking at a barometer for our team:

Bridges scores 12 points: Yes 14-3 No 5-7
Johnson scores 9 points: Yes 14-3 No 5-7

Shows the swing in 3 point shooting (they shoot 44% in wins and 28% in losses).

It's a make or miss league.

Not sure what's going on with Denver but win tomorrow and we're 4 games ahead of them.

(assuming they don't come back from 22 down)

Seems they are really missing Millsap, and Jerami Grant. They had to start Zeke Nnaji.

BobbieL · Post #712 » by **BobbieL** » Mon Feb 22, 2021 2:57 pm

Ryan Saunders fired
Their draft pick could be going to GSW
Towns just getting back
Rubio on the bench

Life is not good in Minnesota

Buyout Rubio - let him go to a good team on the bench

Fat chance in hell that Rubio both gets bought out and chooses us, but that would be incredible.

If he came back and commanded the bench unit for 15-20 minutes, or allowed CP3 to rest on back to backs.

Rubio is under contract next season too, no way they cut him.

And Cam Payne is playing great.

Sorry -I didn't man Rubio back to the Suns. Suns don't have a spot this year for Rubio and since he was just traded, cannot come back for a a calendar year I do not believe

I just meant to a good team.

Rubio has been starting.

Just a question.....look, i know we all love Book and all, but would this be an offer too good to refuse?

Booker to MIN for Edwards/Rubio and the #1 pick in the draft if they land it (Cade Cunningham).

Rubio backs up CP3 for a year (And then expires), Cade plays a season at SG/PG (Like Booker somewhat does) and learns under CP3. Edwards continues to improve. Cunningham/Edwards/Bridges/Johnson/Ayton as a starting 5 in 2 seasons and coming in way less than the salary cap.

Not saying that the Wolves would even consider it, or that we would, just wondering how they plan on fixing the Wolves and get a player that fits their timeline. We all know that as long as the Wolves have DLO/KAT, there will always be that connection there, so just throwing out this hypothetical.

No way.

Will we extend Bridges or will Sarver not pay 4 players big money for 1 or 2 years?
