Because you have two Max players in their prime. Your objective should be to win now.
Name the player you think will give us the best chance to win now that'll only cost us the second pick. And one championship ain't worth flipping a potential 10x allstar at this point imo. If we trade it there gotta be someone coming back that could make at least the next 5 allstar games.

Drummond has yet to be in a situation where he's motivated. Watching Steph and Klay have fun while they kill nikkas would get him going.
We already have that situation with Wiggins, a player that is gonna be “motivated to win” now that he’s in a place that he likes (not even sure I agree with that)

We gotta stop betting on potential.

So why draft Wiseman? That's potential in a nutshell bruh?

Anybody thinking about Hassan Whiteside? :jbhmm:

I'd rather get an Ibaka or Gasol, but Whiteside is a great shot blocker, who can battle with opposing teams big men, and let Draymond primarily focus on the forwards. He's a UFA after this year, we can probably get him on the cheaper side

15pts/13 reb/3 blks a game ain't nothing to overlook

Just a thought

Wouldn't mind any of them but I'm not giving up a first round pick for them. Like I said, Cavs got Drummond for a corndog with no relish.

I wasn't even thinking about a Trade lol this is more of a FA acquisition since they're all FA this year. We can get drummond for Second rd picks and a prospect tbh

Now that I think of it, Drummond or a FA C who can start immediately would be a great pick up, so we can keep Weisman, and groom him and the T-Wolves 2021 first rd potential lottery pick as the next stars of the team, once Steph, Klay, & Dray are winding down their careers.

shyt like this is how the Spurs became the spurs

Taking a player in a draft for a low cost isn’t the same as taking Andre Drummond. Drummond isn’t a switchable big that can shoot either

there’s more upside to taking wiseman. Drummond has shown us who he is for many seasons. He can stay in cleveland

All would depend on how much Drummond's looking for and if the team still believes in Looney or Chriss. I doubt Looney will ever be able to stay right for a season.

I expect Portland to resign him but if they don't then I still want no parts. He's a part of a certain group of centers in the league who care about their numbers and making big plays over being a consistent team defender and making the plays that contribute to winning basketball.

He avg 13 rebounds and 3 blocks but his team was 27th defensively. Worse than the Warriors this year with WCS and Chriss in the middle. Empty stats.
