Getting PG13 is a big reason they were able to sign KL and it's why I didn't agree with the article that was posted here calling it the worst trade ever. Further, SGA then wasn't the MVP we see now. Yes he had potential, but the Clippers were in a win now mode. As they say, Hindsight is 20-20.
I think the better what-if scenario, that is slightly more likely, but still a huge stretch is Ant. That's someone we know Nico likes. The construction of the Wolves kind of puts them against a wall in my opinion and while they'd never offer it, if Ant asked out, they'd have to consider it. It's not happening, but I'd do that trade.
We have to remember Ant is just 23 years old. He'll get better with time and experience. I wonder what the next step roster wise is for them? IMO, McDaniels and Ant are their untouchables. Will they keep Randle and Nikiel Alexander? Will they let Reid walk?
