Hire David Kahn to be your GM brehs. Draft 4 PGs in the same year not named Curry brehs.

Per Zach Lowe:

Danny Ainge's Mystery Target has gotten all the post-trade deadline attention, but with the Bucks and Timberwolves facing off tonight, let's look at perhaps the most interesting deal that didn't happen on February 18th: Minnesota's push to acquire Khris Middleton.

After some initial talks, the Wolves told Milwaukee they would swap Ricky Rubio for Middelton, and when the Bucks declined, Minnesota even discussed the possibility of tossing in a protected 2016 first-round pick, per league sources familiar with the matter. Other outlets have reported Milwaukee's interest in Rubio -- Jason Kidd seems to have a thing for rangy point guards with busted jumpers -- but Milwaukee never seriously entertained trading Middleton, sources say.

@Hammer work on your reading comprehension before dropping unwarranted 1-stars.

Clearly this thread is a celebration of the ongoing hilarity that is Ricky Rubio's embarrassment of a career.

that would've been a weird trade for both teams. Lavine is not a good pg at all... and Bucks would've ended up with both Rubio & MCW?

The Wolves probably have their sights set on Kris Dunn, and getting Middleton would have killed two birds with one stone, they upgrade at the SG/SF with a dude that shoot and they draft a PG that can actually make a layup.
