@rocketsurgery69@OptimistWolves Rudy is gone brother. We have almost no flexibility other than Josh Green salary and no way we’re turning 14 mil into a starting PF and back up lol Jaden could be the backup but more moves are coming and I expect Gobert’s 36 mil to be split up
@OutHereWriting@losoredd21 The issue is Gobert isn’t the only center that can play defense. Heck id take Queta from Boston who held his ground against Embiid who’s making 2 mil but has an actual offensive game. Gobert’s salary at 36 mil needs to be broken up to get a cheap C and a solid PF in FA
@losoredd21 BINGO!! Spread the word… break up that 36 mil and spread it out in FA! I have a feeling he’s gonna get traded to complete the front court reset. No way we keep Gobert and send out Naz/Randle only
@Smallball303 Can it be worse than running a 38 YO 6”1 Conley or DiVincenzo/Ayo who are shooting guards as your PG? As bad as people want to rip on Melo, if this guy stays healthy, he is going to make life easy for all these snipers the wolves have.
@commishconley@BaseballNorm@DT13Hoops Sure. Still a handful of teams with cap space who could use a 3+D player who shot 42% from 3 this past season. Might get only a 2nd rounder but it’s moving his 14 mil is the real value especially for FA
@BonaldTrosby@NBA__Courtside Don’t blame him, why bust your ass for a rebuilding team.. save your best years for your competitive years.. ironic he was healthy when the hornets were finally making noise
@BaseballNorm@DT13Hoops Definitely moving Green. Be interesting to see what they do with Gobert too. He keeps the defense intact but they could do a full front court reset. No one saw Naz getting traded. Gobert’s salary is high for a 1 way player anyways.
@PantherSwag93@JoelDehls Same thing could be said for Naz too though. A lot of teams have PG that don’t play great defense so Melo kinda fits in with the league but you can’t win championships when your 4 (big man) making incredibly low IQ fouls and play terrible defense. Naz gets burned so often.
@Not___KC Forgot 9 mil left in cap space from Randle and 14 mil from Josh Green who they might salary dump… so add 23 million to that Ayo/Lamelo side too
@Yamal19_10_@sixxvisionn@HanaHoops They still have 9mil in cap space and could free up cap with DiVincenzo/Green who are redundant making 26mil. That would be roughly 30+mil left with Zion and in need of a Center/back up PF
@GT500_Sota@allthingsmn 100% I feel Gobert and Green are both gonna be rerouted or used for cap space. They won’t do DiVincenzo dirty like this. Gobert + Green = 1/4 of cap space (50mil) no way we can’t get 2 PF and 1 starting center
