I get the thinking behind the trade for the Timberwolves but Gobert gonna be making 45 M when he’s 33. 4 unprotected/lightly protected picks is way too much for an aging player who is horrible on one side of the ball.
Don’t get me wrong, Rudy is a generational defensder. However, they paid too much. Who will even be their starting SG? Okogie?
I really hate this trad for Minnesota. Not only are they giving way too much for an overpaid regressing player they’re roster construction is also off. They have a solid 4 of Dlo, Ant, Rudy, and KAT, but who’s they 5th guy in their starting lineup? They traded away three potential shooting guards; Beverley, Nowell, and Beasley.
