TZ basically thought Olynyk would be good offensively and really bad defensively. On one of the CBS podcast Harper said he's horrible at D.

I thought I read they were playing Oladipo at PG just for the summer so he could improve on his handle.

Saw this on canis



Ricky seems to be in fine spirits

yeah, I think I've read some of the same about Olynyk. Still, at least he's good at something, unlike Shabazz. McCollum was who I think we should have taken though.

Oladipo looked very awkward playing PG. He kept picking up his dribble before he should have and got pressured into making bad plays because of it. If they're trying to shatter his self-confidence, I think that's a good way to do it.


Zgoda says PEK's offer is likely over $12mil/year. Someone at Canis said its 4 years $46mil. Regardless, it looks like he's coming back.

they want to play oladipo + affalo together, thats what they are banking on pretty much

so if it doesn't workout on the summer league they dont put it in action during the season clearly

olynk was not what twolves needed though, he showed hes gonna be used as a stretch 4 in the nba, wolves needed wings & a backup center... & yea dont write off bazz yet

pretty much what cha said on pek

lol @ the shattering of Oladipo's confindence

It would make more sense to play Oladipo and Affalo at 2/3 than 1/2 imo.

yeah. Olynyk doesnt fit with this team, but if he can play, he'd be better than Shabazz. Burke doesnt fit with this team either, but I'd rather have him than Shabazz. Anyways, as I said before, I think we should have just drafted McCallum.

^^^ & then have 5 pg's on our roster oh gr8

i personally liked flip approach during the draft & am happy with his picks

he tried to trade up by packing #9 + ridnour/d.williams & nobody took the bait.... then counted on kcp falling to #9 & pistons instead of taking burke which is who they needed they took kcp.... twolves faced with a decision to take a pg to add to their long list of p.g's who they cant seem to move or move down & draft a wing(bazz) & a backup center

all in all they made good moves & had a plan for everything b4 hand, i think flip will do well & think people should put things in perspective b4 jumping down the guys throat

i also will be smiling as bazz comes off the bench & gets us 12-15 a night in his rookie season & proves haters wrong....

Dude, i'm not sure who you think wanted Shabazz around here. The pick has been made. No more point complaining about it.

Making an offer here seems like a sucker play to me

Seriously, I got that as a triple lol, which is to say lololol. Assertions about the psychological impact of one summer league game itt.

Agree. Going into the draft there was no player that i really wanted, my only goal was NO shabazz. But theres nothing we can do about it now. Let's give the kid a chance and stop sending all these negative vibes his way. Positive karma FTW!

PEK

I figured Exothermic out a little bit. He is in love HS superstars and thinks they're bound to be good NBA players. Mayo, Rivers, and Shabazz.


I'm interested to hear how summer league goes. DWill play some SL?

i just dont like to count guys out b4 they got enough of a chance

wolves playing in the summer league when?, & whats their lineup?

You also recommended a team sign Allen Iverson. This year.

that's because dallas mavericks offseason is shattered & they had put an invite out for him to join their dleague in january of this year.... im saying might as well have him on your roster for low salary & sell tickets + potentially be a solid off the bench p.g

yea im in favor of low risk high reward moves

You're confusing "high reward" with "no reward" though.

btw its only 8 teams in the summer league?... wanted to see shabazz & deng in these

Las Vegas SL starts on Friday.

I'm going out there for a powerlifting meet & will be in town when the Wolves play Monday. I've thought about going, but tickets are $25, and the quality of the games is pretty low from what I've seen on tv. I dunno if that's worth it. I guess that's a lot cheaper than busting out of a poker tourney, but poker is one of the reasons I go out there. I'll decide while I'm out there.

SL roster.

cha, do you only get to see one game? and where do they play the games?

Not sure how many games you can see, but the Wolves only play one game that I'll be able to attend.

I think they play at UNLV.

@DarrenWolfson
Will sift through after lunch with the Mrs. But yes, the #Twolves have spoken to @CoreyBrewer13 's reps. Not sure if anything is imminent.
