Let me explain why this is a bad trade for the Wolves. First you could have had Myles Turner or Dejounte Murray for a much cheaper return. If Gobert doesn't work, you're stuck with him. Utah not only got out of Gobert's $200 mill salary but they got like 4 unprotected picks. Not only that, we get rid of the emotional leader in Pat Bev. Someone who actually held Kat accountable. I know people here don't think highly of Bev, but he brought energy to this city that was needed.

Gobert is a top 15 player. That's a big deal and he's a game changer
