Minnesota sends:
Norm Nixon
Bryce Robinson
David Wingate
Rory Sparrow
1992 Timberwolves 1st unprotected

Denver sends:
Clyde Drexler

Nuggets need to make 2 cuts.

Accept. This is my big FA year and I'll start by using the bigger max up before it even starts. :lol:

Gervin's better than most FA wings that will be available so I'm comfortable going with him, and is a position I want. And now I keep enough cap to offer a mini-max in FA (by 46,057 to be exact :lol: ) so.... cool!

Good dealing Nuggs.

Seems reasonable to me from both sides. Nuggets are in a pretty tough cap situation so they need to sell Drexler who is the worst of their max contracts. Drexler hasn't shown much on this current Nuggets squad but the offense-starved Wolves get a young guy locked up for a bit that is slightly overpaid but Wolves have good enough cap to handle it.

I guess this means if I offered Cliff, Eaton, Banks and 5 1sts for Barkley it should be rejected though. :roll:

Unprotected 4 years out is very nice for the Nuggets. That’s a nice asset

To the Twolves credit they have 700% as many wins as the Magic

Yeah I wouldn’t make this trade if I was the Wolves

And I was mainly making fun of the fact that the Magic only have 4 wins still that even though the Wolves are also not a playoff team, they lap the Magic 7x over

Smith, Sarunas, Drexler are interesting and should be plenty good in 4 years. Just depends on other acquisitions during that time.

As a fellow GM, Twolves overpaid b/c taking on that contract is an asset in itself so win for the Nuggets to shed that contract (and get all expirings to boot) plus a future pick

Now as commish, its a huge risk for the Twolves to commit that cap number (for a middling player (but with articles.... anything is possible) and a future asset so........

P.S. - Can it be said, I effing hate this part of the job btw

Processed...... fling it all my way
