Controversial(?) opinion: I'd take Rose if he's willing to come off the bench. The wolves badly need someone who can score in the second unit.

If you cut the league in half Draymond Green wouldn't even have been drafted

euphronius posted:Would you do 7 plus Rubio ? Or 7 plus Levine? I'm not sure why the Knicks would want Thad Levine from the Twins (though he would probably make their front office better by default) but no I would not do 7+Rubio for the Zinger, unless maybe we already had a very good PG lined up to sign in FA.

EvanTH posted:https://twitter.com/SLAMonline/status/880472665919770624 Kyle Lowry is really good so as long as we don't give Rubio away for scraps then I could probably deal with it. Isn't he in his 30s though? If it's a long term deal that's my only concern.

Paracaidas posted:I'd rather Dedmon, Ingles, and a backup point for the same cost.... but it's not as if I'd complain about Lowry. If we don't use all of our cap on one guy I would love for the Wolves to go after JaMychal Green (sorry Nick)

The Wolves don't have a pick next year so I suppose I'm ultimately ok with that.

Carlosologist posted:A whole pound for Rubio seems like a good deal, so that opens Minny's cap to add a PG and fill out the bench There were rumblings yesterday that Lowry might take a bit if a discounted deal in the right spot so maybe he'll do that here and leave us enough room to get a mid-tier guy as well. Wolves have roughly 35 mil in space right now

If we dumped Rubio for Teague I'm calling the season ticket reps and felling them that specific signing stopped me from buying a season ticket package

Lockback posted:If they can swing a bench like that, low-key it's probably a better move than getting Lowry. Their bench cost them so many games last year. Yeah, our starters were actually really good together last year (I think one of the top five in the league? I feel like that's too high but it's what's in my head) but our bench was God Awful

Nissin Cup Nudist posted:What is cap smoothing? The cap is determined by the amount of revenue coming in. Due to the new TV deal, last year's cap jumped from 70 million in the 15-16 season to 94 million in the 16-17 season. This is what caused all the massive spending and overpaying of many free agents. This year's cap was projected to jump as well (though not by as much), but due to various factors it did not. Cap smoothing would have, well, smoothed out the jump. So instead of going from 70 to 94 in one year, they would have spaced it out and maybe only increased it by like 7 million per year (I don't know the actual number I'm just tossing that out there) until it was where it should be.
