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.
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

) 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.

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
