Holy smokes. KAT and Gobert like it's the late 1990's and you want 2 excellent big men?

This is a 9 for 1 deal?!



And apparently a 1st round pick swap in 2026. Ainge did it again.

The TWolves are one of those franchises that’s run in such a way that there’s a decent chance this rebuild the Jazz into a superpower in a couple years time.

Good god. If Durant is moved watch out for that return.

 

[Breakers]

Who the hell are half those players.

 

[Terry Yake]

gobert is good, but that return just for him is absolutely insane and not even close to being worth it. not even sure how KAT and gobert will fit alongside each other

great trade for the jazz

Trading draft picks 7 years away, and I'm sure some of the picks will switch hands several times. NBA trades are funny.

 

[No Fun Shogun]

Unless I'm missing something, that seems like the type of trade you make when you think you're a guy away from winning. I think the Wolves are overestimating their position right now.

 

[The Burdened]

This is why the Timberwolves are the Timberwolves.
They will cap out at 53-wins, 2 first round exits before players start demanding out and they have to start over but don't have their picks to build around.

I’ve always wondered why the hell his opinion matters.

 

[GKJ]

I guess the T-Wolves are gonna make a go of this.

 

[Arthur Morgan]

Can someone explain this to me in terms of a hockey trade? I have no clue who any of these people are but wow that seems like alot to give up for a guy,

 

[Know Your Enemy]

This is one the worst trades I've ever seen. The T wolves are out of their minds

Doesn't match in terms of style of play but maybe like if someone traded 3 1sts and a few solid depth players for current day Tavares or something.

He is 3 times defensive player of the year center but limited mostly to dunks on offense. If you're more familiar with Dikembe Mutombo he is the most similar modern player to him. Huge contract which really hurt Minnesota since they had no choice but to include 3 players were in their playoff rotation last year in the trade.

I dont really watch or pay attention in the slightest to basketball. I just hope the Raptors do well every year Ill watch them in the playoffs only. hockey is really the only sport I care about

Minny looking good for next year but that's one heck of a haul by Utah.

Imagine the price for Durant.

 

[Know Your Enemy]

Vanderbilt alone will be better than Gobert in a couple years

 

[Big Poppa Puck]

I'm sure this trade will work out great for Minnesota. They usually do.

They gave up way too much. I could see Durant going for less.

 

[Blitzkrug]

That is an absolutely batshit haul for a guy who's as one dimensional (albeit being best in the league in said dimension) as Gobert. I guess because the Jazz didn't get much in terms of guys who can slot in and help now they demanded more picks?

That's still lunacy. And i like Gobert and what he can do for a squad too
