I don't get D'Angelo Russell talk.
Wolves paid highly for him, in their 2nd attempt to get him. He wants to be there and they want him, while he is playing with his best friend.
They will give it another year at least, and even after it they will want some serious value for him.
I think there is almost zero chance he is traded next season, the coach will be fired before Russell is traded.

While getting future 1sts and/or young players you can sell to KAT as a brighter tomorrow.
Let me look how many competitive NBA games Russell and Towns have actually played together. Oh wait... it´s ONE. ONE.
Russell has played 11 games for the Wolves, and you think they´ll trade him already. Come on now.
That´s all while we pretend that NBA players are robots and not humans.
I will set fire to the AAC and enjoy the shrieks as Donnie and Cuban burn alive if that happens.

I think the Timberwolves are just going to be awful this year and are going to blow this up. KAT and Russell are going to get broken up.
They literally just got put together and are best friends so any break up is well down the road. I'm also not sure he's the fit you think he is with Luka.

I bet Gobert doesn't look so bad to you now.....
Watching the Rockets game right now...Harden was announced last, and then did not take part in the team huddle afterwards.
What a mess.
Mavs don't have assets to trade for Harden anyway. I could see them being involved as a third team to facilitate.

I'd be glad to take 1 PJ Tucker in exchange for 1 Courtney Lee.
Christian Wood looks good. I hope he doesn't end up being the one who got away...twice.

Not a legal trade and also we all know why the Mavs are linked to the Rockets.
SILAS WANTS POWELL. Tuck for Powell, it's happening ya'll!!111
Switching over to the Mavs feed now, but Christian Wood just owned Aldridge on both sides of the court for like 6 minutes straight.

Not sure ab aggregation rules with a player you just traded for. I know Mavs can't add something to Johnson in a trade but is it legal for the receiving team to have multiple players received? I am guessing you can do that?
Wood would have been nice. Too bad we didn't do some kind of Wright for Wood S&T.
