Rosas Skyping to check in on Tyus’s growth. By growth I mean to check in and see if Tyus has grown tall enough to play backup Center or PF behind Towns and Covington.

Wolves basketball is going to be fun again. I think Rosas has additional moves up his sleeve as well. It's going to be a fun night.

What? A FA who was an all-star last year wants to come here? Sounds good to me. But you're right, we have to unload Wiggins.

I would discount any rumors that the Wolves were trying to trade Culver after they selected him.

When the trade was made, I would assume it was targeted at Garland hoping Cleveland would not pick a PG. But, he had to have as a contingency that the trade was worth trading up for Culver. Anybody who would make that trade without that assumption is very dumb. Although I disagree with him, I don't think Rosas is dumb.
I disagree. It was stated that we talked about trading up to 4 or 5 but it would have required Cov. We weren't doing that for Garland. We made that trade for Culver imo. But that's what it is, opinion. However, most mocks had Garland gone before 6 so it makes sense that Rosas knew Garland would be gone.

1. No, we didn't make the trade for Culver. If we were targeting Culver the trade would have occurred during the draft, not before.

2. If a NBA GM is looking at mocks to make his decision, then he should be fired.

3. They made the trade to 6 knowing either Garland or Culver would be available and were comfortable doing the deal.

Again, I don't agree with the trade but if the target was Culver the trade would have waited to the clock. Why trade to 6 and see Culver taken at 5 like some thought they would do.
Thank you for your opinion.

This could be a really fun couple of days, but I’m going to wait until something actually happens before I get my hopes up.

Kings are targeting Al Horford in addition to bringing back Harrison Barnes. Not sure what money they'd have.

I’m still not sure I love Russell, but I love having an aggressive GM who appears to have a vision and be able to get things done.

I may be counting chickens too early, but I get a decent vibe out of this.

For some reason a southpaws shot is way prettier than a righty shot. Always preferred it. Im ambidextrous, shoot lefty mostly other than free throws where I shoot right handed.

Russells shot isnt quite Calbert Chaney pretty buts its still smooth!

I'm not sure why everyone on here is so high and D'Angelo Russell his effort in defense is non-existent at times. He makes Wiggins look like the defensive player of the year. A lot of times he was benched at the end of the game.

Wiggins? Not so sure. Not seeing the neutral or positive value.
