    this is one of those trades where it’s impossible to tell how it’s gonna roll until we actually see gobert in a t-wolves jersey on the court. personally i think they gave up a little too much, but i also feel like rudy gobert can help the t-wolves exponentially.

    Trading Gobert to rebuild around Mitchell was almost a requirement for the Jazz. They had to start over and Gobert's contract is too big. I think this will really help the Timberwolves be immediately competitive with the 1-2 punch with KAT, but they gave up a lot to do it. I'd like to see the T'wolves not be terrible for a change so I'll be optimistic.

      @@MrSoccerstar3 Yeah, but if rudy moves out of the way he can´t get the rebound. Also if he moves out of the way his defender is probably going to double KAT if he posts up, as rudy is not a shooter. With Edwards it would probably work better as rudy´s defender would maybe leave to contest edwards and then rudy could get the rebound or rudy´s defender wouldn´t leave rudy fearing the pass, or rudy just grabbing the rebound after his defender contest edwards shot. That could work on KAT´s post-up but it´s harder. Rudy averages about 3,5 ppg on putbacks (third best in the NBA) so he undoubtedly is a good rebounder, so hopefully he will make it work. We'll have to see, i think it could work great. They will most definitely do better than last season. Hope so atleast.

    I don’t get how people are taking a shit on Minnesota. They just put together a pair of top 5 centers along with an upcoming superstar wing in Edwards, and they didn’t even give up D’Lo. Its a win now move. How many times does a small market franchise get the opportunity to do this? They ain’t drawing in all star level free agents.
    KAT now gets the chance to stretch the floor while someone still has their paint covered. If they fill up their roster properly, they’re a better squad than Denver.

  • @riderich.
    @riderich. 2 роки тому +3

    As a Timberwolves fan I’m fine with what is quite blatantly an overpay due to the fact that the only real starter on our team we lost was Vanderbilt, though Beverly will probably be missed more, and with Beasley and Bev gone it let’s the team try to develop Nowell more and Bryn Forbes to try to become the same role that Beasley was. Not to mention the 4 picks is a lot except for the fact that the Wolves have been terrible at drafting anywhere other than top 3 in the first round for well over a decade with the only real exception being Zach Lavine, 3 of our 4 best picks in the last decade have all been first overall selections so it’s not hard to get something good with that many attempts.

    • @riderich.
      @riderich. 2 роки тому +1

      From the 2012-2022 drafts there are only 3 first round picks from the Timberwolves on roster if you count Moore’s draft day trade, the others being KAT (1st overall) and Ant (1st overall), it will be 4 if Okogie re-signs. Most of the Timberwolves first round picks end up getting traded soon after anyway.
      LaRavia, Kessler, Poku, Markkanen, Roberson, Burke, Culver played under 80 games, Bolmaro barely played, Dunn didn’t do much, even Lavine ended up getting traded away for Butler who we didn’t even get to keep for long.

      Mitchell not staying here long term in Utah. So building around him is pointless. He leaves either this year. Or next, if the Jazz don’t go deep in the playoffs. Mark my words. And with the current roster now, you think it was bad playoff wise for us before? I predict we don’t win more than 43 or so games this year. And that’s if we keep Mitchell! This was about as good a package as we could get back for Gobert. But planning a team around Mitchell is about to be exposed as the second worst recent move, only behind us trading away so many guys and overpaying and then resigning for Conley… This is going to turn out bad… Mitchell has stated he wants to play for Miami. He will be leaving Utah. And then we are totally busted down, rebuild 🗑 for years to come. I hate the fact we traded away Gobert. Should have dumped Conley and Mitchell. 👎👎👎

I know there is talks of him moving as well, but I feel that they don't want to leave the playoff scene, but I don't see them doing anything big.

    I think unprotected first round draft picks are the new normal in the NBA. Kind of like fully covered contracts in football have now become the big thing that a free agent quarterback is going to want from a team now a team is going to want unprotected first round picks in the NBA.

    I'm super high on Gobert, but 5 first-rounders + a couple pieces for him is a HAUL. Gobert himself was a 27th pick in the draft

    RG is gonna solidify that front line and you got a Big Four and I love this.
    I need to see DR to step the heck up and set the table like I know he can.
    KAT not having to worry about being the last line of defense is gonna do wonders for him as well.

    This is a win for the Jazz. They got Beasley, Bev, Vanderbuilt, ALL good defenders, plus all these PICKS to trade or keep. Wolves will be better in the regular season with Kat able to focus more on offense. They will be worse in the playoffs since rudys offense is so trash. Jazz might be building something gritty after they trade Mitchell to the knicks.
