What a mess with Rosas. I was listening to the Zach Lowe Podcast just the other day with the team reporter from the Athletic. They had some nice things to say about the Timberwolves and thought they should be in the play-in discussion. The reporter agreed but says something always pops up with that franchise and blows everything up. Not a day later, this happens. It sounds like Rosas was a real piece of work. Who knows if the story is exaggerated or not, but it doesn't look good. Will see if Alex Rodriguez can steady the ship (HA). I am sure there are plenty of teams already trying to position themselves for Townes. I will be very surprised if he is still there in 3 years.
I am still fascinated by the Simmons saga. I really think Morey is going to call Simmons bluff. I don't think he is going to trade him for that subpar Minny offer. It just isn't in Morey's DNA. I believe if Simmons doesn't report, Morey will hold on to him and wait for a better offer. We will see though. Simmons and his camp doesn't appear to work with the team at all. It should be fun to watch from afar. My sneaky trade team is Toronto, although I am sure there are others who could surprise at all. But I can't see Morey taking 50 cents on the dollar. So we will see how long Simmons is willing to sit.
