If we could get on a deal with the Pistons for Rose that would be awesome. A three way to help facilitate them moving Drummond.
DeMarre Carroll would be fine with trade exception I guess but the cost would be too high considering luxury tax.
Could significantly reduce the tax implications if you trade Mario & Caleb for him (would require separate trades). Carroll -> into Baze TPE (temp 16th roster spot) Caleb -> into Carroll's TPE (& then cut) Mario -> into remaining Carroll's TPE net change would add $3m of salary (~8 including tax)
Minny is clearly blowing this all up. I asked this earlier, but the Wiggins noise is even greater now than before, what would it take for us to be convinced to take on Wiggins? How about: HW + future Minny firsts to GS Russell + Hezonja to Minny Wiggins + BK's first to POR
As long as people continue to convince themselves that Kuzma is a good player, stuff like this will continue to be propagated.
Who got better? Houston got smaller, Minnesota made a lateral move. Do you ever actually think things through before you type?
