To Fly You Must Have Wings: The 2012 T'Wolves Offseason Thread II

[tremonthustler1]

i just don't get why we would want Pau and his shytty contract. wtf. is this team just dedicated to being all white?

Somebody asked Phil Jackson about that recently and he was like "you know, Rick Adelman's squad in Sacramento had a bunch of white guys too. I'm not saying anything, but that's interesting."



Good news: O.J. Mayo is an UNRESTRICTED free agent!!! Get em!

Seriosuly, Pau fukking Gasol? I dont want that bum.

 

[Hater]

LEAVE PAU ALONE! This is gonna cost us Pek. I fukking know it.

We already have a center in Bynum so i doubt we want Pekovic breh. I believe Mitch wants Williams|Beasley & draft pick. You guys could then possibly flip Pek to Philadelphia (Who need a center) for someone like Iguodala.

Gasol
Love
Iggy
Roy?
Rubio

No because Pau would still be here, and then in 2 years, all that would be left is an angry Love and Rubio.

Today we find out what happens to Miller, Webster, Randolph, and Beasley. My guess?

Webster and Miller's options both declined. Beasley and AR don't get QO's. Tolliver I think returns while Darko gets bought out, not amnestied.

this fukking sucks, i don't want to speculate about Pau anymore. fukk that dude, they can just have derrick or beas and keep pau

 

[daboywonder2002]

i think gasol is a great fit in adelman's offense. only problem is that i would not trade d-will to get him. if williams can get down to 225 and lock that starting sf position up. that makes free agency a lot easier. just sign oj mayo and delonte west(headcase, but not expensive,can handle the ball, defend and shoot the three)and be done with it

 

[Akata Man Bromo]

Any word on if we get Pau, we can still sign a guy like mayo and roy? Im all for getting Pau if we can still get one or both of those guys

 

[tremonthustler1]

Webster's and Miller's options extended a few days I guess to see if they can be dealt.

Adiós, ha sido divertido! Goodluck

-Beasley

I'mma miss him

 

[kash10003]

damn beas is gone now?

he still had a lot of potential and was still usually the best self made scorer on the court


i heard the wolves offered 4 years 45 to batum though? any word on whether he likes that deal

i think i would rather have him than the other dudes

Reportedly we're where he wants to be. Doogie said he'd be surprised if he didn't sign our offer sheet, but also said he wouldn't be surprised to see Portland match it.

 

[Akata Man Bromo]

can the Blazers give hibbert the max and match batum?

 

[We Ready]

*sheds tear for Super Cool Beas

 

[vybz353]

I was hopping we'd keep him but he seemed like the odd man out all year.

The teams outside of Portland that are courting Nicolas Batum, Minnesota is his preferred destination.

I'm being told Minnesota is Nicolas Batum's preferred destination. They have a great shot at coming to terms on an agreement. #Blazers
