The Kings did not screw themselves out of a potential dynasty. They basically hit the reset button. The Timberwolves have a potential dynasty on their hands and they are trying to screw it up at every turn. They got their 2 budding superstars playing out of position. Andrew Wiggins is a 199 lbs SG they have playing small forward every night against the likes of 260 lbs LeBron and 240 lbs Durant. Then they got Towns who is a 6'11" PF trying to play center and be their rim protector when that's not who he is. Instead of adding defenders and shooters to space the floor, they are trying to add aging ball dominant PGs like Derrick Rose. Just retarded.

The T-Wolves are one move away from being a playoff team this year and being a title contender in the near future. TRADE Rubio and their 2017 1st round pick to the 76ers for Nerlens Noel and Robert Covington.

Sixers will want to do this trade because they tried to make a similar move last year. They tried to trade Noel and Covington to the Celtics for their #3 overall pick in the 2016 draft (a pick that ultimately became Jaylen Brown). Philly love unprotected draft picks and the T-Wolves first rounder will be tantalizing to them. Wolves gain nothing from another first rounder. This year's draft is filled with something they don't need which is more ball dominant guards. They already got Dunn and Lavine. Plus more youth ain't gonna help. They need size at the center position and they need a legit SF so that Wiggins can move to SG. If they do this trade they can move to Dunn as their PG of the future, they improve defensively, and they allow Wiggins and Towns to play their natural positions.

Wolves need more time before they are a playoff team... I said it before the season I didn't see them making the playoffs... Rubio is a problem... but he's not the only problem on the team.

I don't like Rose on that team... I don't like Rose on any team...

Honestly... if they are gonna try and trade with the 76ers they should go for Okafor instead of Noel... That's a personal preference though... I'm not a Noel fan.

That being said... We'll give you Mozgov, Deng, Nick Young, and Jose Calderon for KAT and Wiggins, we'll throw in a couple 2nd round picks too :shaq:

I don't know why people think adding the better scorer to a team will necessarily make them better. Okafor provides nothing but more offense. Wolves don't need offense. They're already one of the best offensive teams in the NBA.

What they suck at is defense which is the only thing Noel gives you. This is about meeting needs. Twolves need a rim protector. They don't need another player who wants to score. Wiggins and Towns are already doing all the scoring.

Nerlens Noel would be perfect for them. And with him they would have a good chance at making the playoffs.

ATL…overly
Holy shyt...Bill Simmons just brought up the idea of CP3 maybe being chased by the Pelicans to go back to New Orleans. Brehs, if this happens...Boogie, AD, CP3 and a few shooters...title contender? :ohmy:

We have to see how CP3 comes back, but I think he might give them a 2-3 year window in where it is a possibility to make some real noise out west.

@Malta and the other sensible NBA brehs, calm me down a bit. Am I way off?

:mjlol: at this nonsense. Do y'all nigaas even watch basketball or y'all got ya mind on 2K with some of these scenarios?

So 2 bigs that suck at Rebounding? (Lopez and Horford)

:laff:

It's not ideal but Horford can stretch the floor and give Lopez room inside :yeshrug:

Lopez's value is pretty low right now anyways
