Four years ago this week the Wolves were offered Josh Richardson and a first for Jimmy Butler. How would things have changed if we’d have accepted?

    We should have taken the rockets deal where they offered a bunch of firsts, fuck thibs

    The Wolves were right to hold out for Bam who hadn’t broken out at that point. Miami was right not to add him into the deal.

    Richardson never became the player he was thought to be. Thibs was fine to want more but the biggest issue was losing all leverage when Jimmy went public with his bullshit. Thibs not living in reality and thinking he could hold out or thinking winning would cure all ills was the biggest misstep. Wolves ended up recouping as much as they could and turned the assets acquired in the Butler deal to build the deep roster we have today.
