Those impact numbers are certainly working their magic on the Wolves.
MIN overpaid for a guy that wasn't worth it because they were a desperate franchise with new owners trying to make a splash. Just because Gobert went for a kings ransom doesn't mean that was his true value nor does it speak to Gobert's impact on the court. Overpays and underpays happen all the time in business. MIN did a bad deal for a one dimensional dinosaur.

Even if one doesn't see them as the cornerstone to build around, they are certainly considered as elite second guys. Both contract controlled for a long time. Gobert haul was outrageous, but Mitchell one wasn't that much lower, and he can certainly be a very similar comparison regarding the value of a star.
My speculation for the negative holds as much weight as air in space. Both KAT and Edwards are good players. I guess time will tell if there will be a team that is willing to throw the sink at either one of them. I hope it isn't the Mavs.
