Boy, I think it's about time I tell you the difference between a man and a woman. A woman isn't a woman unless she's pretty. And a man isn't a man unless he's ugly.

I don't think any fans are bashing it's just the team took a different direction than expected and no one knows what it means yet. Even if Dunn makes them better, having Rubio on your team is pretty fantastic (and Rubio was really good last year).

It's very easy to see how adding a potentially elite shooter like Murray or Hield would have helped the Wolves, but Dunn is a lot harder to understand. He is a good player, he's a very good defender, and he can finish at the rim, which is something that Rubio can't do. That being said he's been an inconsistent shooter on the floor, he struggles taking care of the ball, and he's a 69% FT shooter. He'll hopefully improve on some of those weaknesses in time, but those are all weaknesses that are going to scare Wolves fans. The Wolves do need better backup PG play, since the offense falls off when Rubio is off the court, so if Dunn can take care of the ball, then he can help there, but long term I can't see Dunn and Rubio co-existing. I don't think Dunn is a bad player, but I just think a shooter would have helped more and this is leading to a scenario where one of Rubio or Dunn is traded in a year or two, which makes the pick feel like more of a lateral move.

you literally think a person saying their NBA team of choice being better than the fucking 76ers is a 'schtick'

a literal thing you think.

When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
It was true, the Spurs really did love Murray. Somehow they were able to say this openly without someone drafting him and trying to extort a pick out of the Spurs for it.

The Vertical really needs to drop the guy on the left of the table (my left). So many lovely white guy takes.
