The Wolves still wouldn't be going backwards.

That's true. But if the Wolves are going to win a championship it is going to be because KAT evolves into the type of superstar that can win one. I already feel like Butler will stunt his growth enough I can't imagine what Kyrie pounding the shot clock out with his sick handles would do to stagnate him. And we can't forget that Wiggins is going to put up his shots no matter what either.

Actually, I agree with almost all of that. I think Butler will be a grood fit, but I'd really question Kyrie. But again, no one expects the Wolves to win a championship this year. No one. And the interest shown by top players is super encouraging. If not Kyrie this year, maybe another big name next year will fit with the rest of this rising group to really challenge for a title. No matter what happens moving forward the Wolves are finally becoming players in a real way.

If they trade him they better get something good for him. He has a good contract and some time left on it. If not I'd tell him to fuck off and show up or sit out. LeBrom will probably leave anyway next year.

Nobody is going to make a good enough offer. You can't trade for superstars, its too risky. All these pussies want is exactly what they want. Unless the team that trades for him is absolutely where the player feels he can be at his superteam superteamiest its not worth it. Why give up valuable assets so a guy like Irving can go circle jerk with some flat earthers somewhere else in two years because thats which side of the bed he woke up on that day?

I'd rather be paying Wall that in 2022 than Hardaway Jr. 17 million in 2017.
