GET'ER DONE!!!!

If we throw in KOQ, I want a pick and/or Shabazz Muhammad

i wouldn't overplay our hand.. i agree i'd like bazz or a pick back also, but rose is only a 3 month rental, so i'm not sure how much we can hold out for.

Rubio's contract goes for two years longer than Rose's - we're helping the T'Wolves out here immensely.

Fact that it is Thibbs coaching the other team has to make you think that Minny wants to resign him.

Other thing is that if the reports are true they are approaching us.

If we can't get this year's #1 from them, I'd push for their #2 and some kind of protected #1 (top 5?) next year.

Sick of getting taken advantage by other teams over the years when it comes to draft picks.

I think it's unrealistic for a lottery team to give up their pick just for cap savings. I think the more realistic and reasonable trade would be to add Noah to the deal with Rose; them taking Noah being our compensation. They've been on record stating they needed a veteran backup big man and Noah is that while being better than anything they currently have on the bench. Boom.

Yeah, I agree. Though the Wolves must sense some desperation on Phil's part to get something for Rose. If he gets Rubio for Rose, it's a decent return. If he lets Rose walk, he just gave away Jerian Grant and downgraded from Rolo to Noah for a one year rental that was a disaster. I guess that's some sunk cost thinking. But with all the news about the Knicks maybe being shut out in FA this offseason, I have to think Phil will want to do something with the Rose chip now. It also does really help Minnie though, because they can audition Rose for 30 games before deciding if they'd re-sign him.

Windhorst said they just want to get out of Rubio's contract because Thibs loves Dunn. But Thibs loves DRose as well.

Interesting...even more reason to pick up a #1 from them if they are desperate to dump Rubio.

I'm in an exploitative mood at this point.

If they really wanted to get rid of Rubio, they could easily stretch his salary. So I don't understand why people feel they desperately need to dump him as if he coulsn't easily be moved for an expirer.

I have a feeling Phil let Brandon and Noah know the direction they were going and that they'd try to move them before the deadline. Just a feeling though. Phil seems honorable in that sense.
