Should the Wolves move Love before the trade deadline?

[Malta]

Why wouldn't I? They don't affect my work

My breh, Tre Buddens season about to return, I liked you better when you were pissed off and angry at the wack team.

 

[Kang Deezy]

What I would do -


I'd wait until the deadline and hit up the Celtics, by that time there would be no shot of them making the playoffs. I'd demand the 2014 Cs pick, 2014 Sixers pick, 2017 Nets pick, Sullinger & Bradley.


I'd also move Kevin Martin & Rubio End up with two lottery picks this year, a 2017 pick that will no doubt be high lottery.

Yeah, that team needs to be completely gutted. I don't think there's anybody on that team I'd keep.

It's less about that (I could give 2 fukks about where he goes. I done seen everything but the playoffs, so it's not like any of that is any consolation. Just more picks to fukk up).

They could pick 1-5 and find a way to ruin an

Embiid
Randle
Parker
Wiggins
Exum /Smart lineup

if they could. It's Flip Saunders. Like I said, I don't expect him to do shyt. He won't need to. He's not going anywhere.

Speaking of not going anywhere, Raptors brehs, y'all remember Ron Babcock right? Well, he's been here throughout this entire thing and all he's been getting are PROMOTIONS.

This is way less stressful than the KG ordeal (and my AHH heads can recall I didn't want anything back for him either, though I ultimately did like the trade package we got back)

If Love were available Boston will be on the phone first, no way Ainge is going to let a player like him pass without inquiring about him. I think they have the assets to get him and still build a competitive team that might get him to stay, plus Boston as a whole would go wild for a white dude that puts up his numbers.




If you built a team around him properly I think he's worth a max contract if you're looking at what other players earn.


He needs a 3 and 5 that can defend to make up for his lack of interior D & shotblocking. The Lakers want this dude, I'd say he's their number 1 realistic target since I think they realize Bron aint going there.

He'd be a god.

They have way too many Adelman guys, dudes that only play one side of the floor, teams are shooting 48% against them.

They'd bring back Cheers just to dikkride that guy on TV

Araujo still burns to this day...

The Timberwolves are definitely one of those teams that should have a better team than they do considering the opportunities they've had in the draft the past 5 years.

It's probably Cleveland and them as my top two, that have basically fukked up every draft pick they'd made over the last 4 years.

That should have taken BPA last draft (probably Burke, the Greek Freak woud have been a huge reach at the time) and not traded for two lesser picks instead

they don't even do that to their potential really

they should have had a better team with who they have, who they have had. this is just a team acting like they are in a dead-end job, top to bottom

 

[Malta]

They don't shoot a high percentage from the field, their offense is 4th most efficient in the league, even their point differential is damn good. The problem is they cannot get stops when it matters, which is why they lose all these close games.


They are 8th in the league in point differential, shyt makes no kind of sense, they are +5. Every other team in the top 10 has a winning record.

 

[Captain Crunch]

Wizards should trade for him in the offseason, offer Nene and two future top -5 protected first rounders.

Yeah, if he played like he's capable of, you'd be hearing Love compared to every Celtics great including Bird within a month. He'd probably have his jersey retired by the all star break.

I think between Stevens coaching him and probably having him spend a lot of time between the 3 point line, how easy Rondo will make his life, and the fact that he'll be worshipped in Boston, they'd have a legitimate shot of getting him to sign an extension. I don't think Boston does the deal unless Love agrees to waive his player option at the very least.

Burke or Giannis wouldn't be playing on this team right now.

They lack bench scoring and shot blocking, yet won't play Dieng or Muhammad.

I even posted an hour or so ago.



It's really crazy how much of a decline Adelman has had from even 2 years ago when all he did was let Ricky and Kevin freelance. Now he wants to institute his offense and now Ricky doesn't even look like he's having fun anymore (another reason why I'd just let him walk; Adelman and Flip set up a roster for a coach who could leave tomorrow if he wanted to. Who's gonna wanna coach what's left of that team? Ah, but this is where we'll see the shortest coaching search ever; either Flip, Flip's son or Rick's son David will take over. They run shyt like a father and son painting store, they really do, all because they're scared of being turned down, hence why Flip's even in this position)

he won't. The point of the deal was so that he could get a super max out of it (that was the compromise met since Love couldn't get the 5 year franchise max)

and about that franchise max, Love wanted that for purely egotistical reasons. This thread would still be made at this exact time if he had 3 years left on his deal instead of one.
