Can't wait to see him drive in a Minnesota winter
Doesn’t change nothing as a bulls fan I see first round exit they got no big anymore 😂
holy refresh
Still feels not real. These drafts/trades are nutz.
Lamello not needing to do too much will aid injury management; same with Ant. People talk sh!t about Lamello injury risk, but forget he was carrying a team mostly himself. Last season, he didn't need to. And played most the season. 🤷♂️
Your AI thumbnail gave them the same Number 😅
bring in a 7 foot power forward to help Gogurt in the paint….and Westbrook at the 3 to crash out on defense 👌
1) for KAT, Minnesota got Randle (which flipping later allowed the Wolves to get Ball), Dante AND Joan Beringer…a player with tremendous upside that many teams asked about in trades and Minnesota essentially made untouchable
2). The Ball trade didn’t mortgage their draft future…they literally traded Naz and a 1st rounder seven years away (2033)…too many people try to hype up the other three pick swaps, but they aren’t nearly as big a deal considering they most likely won’t even convey since the Hornets wouldn’t want to swap to a lower spot in the draft order. People just latch on to the words “1st round picks” but don’t even look into the context
I'm sold on this trade. The Wolves can't keep hitting walls in the WCF without a playmaker. My concern with Melo is not that he's 'disco'. That's him, he's a street freestyler like Kyrie, but he has fundamentals too. My worry with him has always been his will to win and his health. That's all. Other than that, let the kid color outside the lines.
I respect you took a few days to make a video instead of an instant reaction!
Holy shit does anyone actually understand what pick swaps are and in truth nothing is even going to happen with those picks because I'm sure Minnesota is going to be s better team those years then the hornets so unless they want to take later picks and give us better picks nothing will happen. We still get to make a first round pick those years
All we need is a PF
Lamelos team now
Only thing with Rudy is idk if Lamelo can help him cuz Rudy couldn’t catch a ball even if it had an adhesive on it😭
Timberwolves are much better after this trade
Period.
Lebron
Johan is a beast! He’s bound to only get better
I actually don’t believe lamelo is ever going to be hunted on every possession, he improved last season they had a top 5 defense the 2nd half of the season with worse defenders than the wolves have; it’s also hard to hunt melo consistently because he’s 6’7 he can get a good contest up at least usually
I mean at this point , why not
