***The Keep KAT/ANT Forever Thread***

[jscott]

No reason to think you gotta trade one to pave way for the other. They compliment each other on offense and as Ant gains more respect he will open things up for Karl.

His ability to draw fouls and attention will only help our offense.

No need to screw up a good thing. They enjoy playing with each other - here in Minnesota. Let’s try to improve the pieces around them (even though I already like what we have) instead of feeling the need to move one.

Both have a place here. There is no overlap, no personality conflicts, nothing else to worry about.

Let’s enjoy what we have with these two guys while we have them!! Those KG years seem so long ago and this is as close as we’ve ever been.

(TBH - this team may be more fun to watch than the KG teams)

If the team traded for Dame outside of KAT/Ant, whom would they offer?

3 firsts, Dlo, and Josh Okogie. But I don’t think Dame is who we should trade for. I would sign Dlo for 25, and target a true C or a big PF. I still really want Randle, but others disagree.

Dear god no.

Soon to be 32 YO old set to make 135 million the next 3 years? Portland won’t trade him within the division regardless, stay away. He’s going to be one of those terrible contracts next to Paul wall, Ben Simmons and Westbrook for the next couple of years

Nice opposite of the Trade KAT thread.

Fans always looking for shortcuts.

[packforfreedom]

[Mamba4Goat]

I’d still trade KAT.

[KGdaBom]

I’d still trade KAT.

I wish there was a -1 option.

i think you have have to ask this after this memphis series. unless you're that optimistic.

Keep KAT/ANT forever scenario.

Trade DLo, Nowell for Jerami Grant, Hayes.
Why for DET: they draft Banchero/Smith/Holmgren and want a veteran presence at PG in order to develop big.

Sign Tyus Jones 24 mil / 3yrs, TP 18 mil / 2yrs (2nd yr team option). Draft Kessler Walker (#19), Patrick Baldwin Jr. (#40), Trevor Keels(#49), Gabe Brown (#51)

Towns/Reid/Walker
Grant/Vanderbilt/Baldwin
Edwards/MCD/Brown
Beverley/Beasley/Bolmaro
Tyus/JMac/Keels
