Let's be real. If the Warriors didn't put the right pieces around Steph, he would have been gone. Star players like Dirk who stay one team their entire career are by far the exception. Most of the other one team players had continuous success over their career. Just look at Giannis' comments recently. If Minnesota can put the right pieces, something they have failed to do for basically their entire history, Ant could be the true franchise superstar. If not, they may just be the next Wizards or Blazers in perpetual mediocrity.

Warriors are on the decline. Curry, at 35 yrs old, is still elite but on the decline. Klay is unraveling from being a 2nd option before to be just a third option or even a sixth man. Green is still ok but getting old. Wiggs is not the same but still solid as third option. Kuminga is their saviour and should play heavy minutes so that the Dubs will have continuity if Klay leaves. Poole trade was ok since he was a third option anyway. CP3 trade was bad because he's actually should be in the bench even in the Suns.

@@beli722 well, then the franchise has to do a better job of 1) evaluating talent, 2) setting up the roster to build around that 1 or 2 all-star caliber player and 3) hire good staff to bring the most of out of these players in that short window. But as you already know, small markets teams typically don't handle these three very well. As mentioned in the video, Wolves made several bad trades. This will not only set the franchise back for years but AE will eventually will leave once he gets that max contract and you will barely be back to build a roster around him but why would AE wait for that. It all comes down to the coaching staff, manager(s), GMs and team owners that are not making the right decisions. Big market teams have a lot of room to work with even if they mess up but teams like Wolves, zero. That's why it's better to just start from scratch like the Thunder and let them develop together and be on the same page as far as their peak horizon. Wolves should just be thankful that they found AE. If I was the GM, I would get rid of everyone and get 1 or 2 really good players or start from scratch. Being mediocre is worse than being the worst team in the league.

I agree that KAT does need to be traded. I was hoping he would be this off-season. Also, Minnesota's lack of winning isn't strictly because of the fact they're a small market team, but overall because of their location. Minneapolis is just undesirable to live in not because of the late May 2020 riots, but the fact it gets way too cold there during the winter, the season when most of the NBA games are happening. I'm pretty sure that's why the Lakers who use to play there relocated to Los Angeles.

If they can just trade KAT for an all star calibre PG or Wing there roster would fit together so much better. KAT could become something special offensively still so even with his contract I feel like he should have enough value to bring an all star level player back but he just doesn't seem like a winning player. Same way even though he's an amazing scorer I did not want my team to trade for Harden, I wouldn't want KAT either.

That gobert trade wasn’t bad they just need some more pieces and a point guard

Missing Jaden and Naz in the playoffs was a killer.

What about when KAT said that Ant should stop eating Popeyes and fast food?

Speaking of Portland - they don't think KAT's value is that high, yet want at least 6-7 good FRP for Damian Lillard, who is 33 y.o., had injuries in the past few seasons and in the last year of his contract will earn $60M. For them what Miami is offering for Dame (a coming off injury Tyler Herro, Duncan Robinson, presumably Kyle Lowry and 2-3 FRP + swaps) is insulting, but they don't think it's worth trading for KAT (sure, he may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but pairing him with Dame could've worked - you never know)? And now, I think I will side with Dame on his trade demand - he's done more than enough for this clueless franchise which time and time again was failing him with dubious and perhaps Portland's front office should receive zilch from Miami. And they'll do the same with Scoot Henderson.

Legit Ant isn’t leaving until his deal is up or he is demanding a trade on one year left if the T wolves didn’t improved by then But where Ant go? I would see Ant somewhere like Brooklyn,Philly,or maybe like Chicago if they are a different team when the current team is different

How come Gobert is never mentioned when I hear about T-Wolves trades? I know they overpaid wildly, but it feels like holding onto him is just the fallacy of sunk costs.

The fact Pat Bev said it makes it disrespectful. Ant ain’t leaving, not now

Minnesotas best players always leave and have success elsewhere.🤷🏾‍♂️

MJ comparisons already?

Dunno what KAT is taking but its pretty strong.

Pat Bev and KAT's Playoff spot clinching Championship win 🤝 LA Clippers back-to-back Opening Night and Christmas day Championships

The gobert trade is purely to handle Jokic. TC knows what it takes to beat jokic and the wolves definately handled the nuggets ofgense the best in the playoffs. TC believes in the team he built in Denver and believes they will be thw class of the league for the next few years. Gobert KAT and Ant is a team that can handle Jokic... but AM hoops is just like Pat only focuses on the big markets... he was anti nuggets all last season and never gave j9kic the credit for the 2 mvp's... am hoops doesn't watch small market teams.

Was about to post something similar but will just say you mostly hit the nail on the head. Absolutely TC knew the West is going through Jokic/Nuggets for the foreseeable future and made the Gobert trade for that reason. The Wolves gave as much or more trouble to the Nuggets as the Suns or Lakers and all gave more than the Heat. AE was great. But the Nuggets are way more than Jokic and, barring injury, should handle anything thrown at them the next few years.
