    Posts like this are stupid and why your shtick is lame. Minnesota has been to the playoffs once in the last 14 seasons as an 8th seed last year. Taking all those risks sure pay off for them big time!

    Gee I wish we had a GM that took risks leading to never making the playoffs. Get a clue man/robot!

    I wonder how badly the Wolves want out of Dieng's contract? A Saric, Nurk, Collins big rotation would be among the best in the NBA for the next 7-8 years.

    I would really love Saric at Portland. Been watching him since he was 16, such a useful player, sticking to his task.

    Who are the best 5 teams in the league right now?

    Probably bad. Thibs doesn’t seem to like him, just by looking at his minutes since last year. Saric isn’t going to fit in Thibs system either. That’s bound to fail. Mirotic didn’t like playing for him either. Aminu is made for Thibs. Doesn’t need as much freedom. I’d even add our pick. That’s how much I’d want Saric in Portland.

    Hard to say as Minnie might not have wanted to deal him to a division rival either.

    Looking at the numbers that's not the case as Blazers are 2nd in fg% allowed and 6th in opponents points allowed.

    Saric was the player Philly had to include but his presence was beneficial to the team.

    Every report I have read says they were not going to deal within the Western Conference...

    Where are the obligatory fake rumors of Minny rerouting Saric or Covington to Portland for ET?

    I am going to assume this is a joke. But man, if it’s not, take it from someone with terrible, HORRIBLE, sleep habits... do something about it. It’s really not all that funny and is bad for your health. I’m learning the hard way.

    I just heard of the trade, and checked the 76er lineup. What a mess at PF. Simmons will have to be the starting PF. The team lacks depth at most positions.
