I definitely did not see that. I know Kat is not the centerpiece of Minnie's future but they already spent a lot to get Gobert (compared to what was given for KD), now they acquired an inflated strong forward with some health issues in Randle and a protected pick, the shooter is the real only upside imo but not worth the trade. However, I often disagree with Minnie's GM, so...
On the other side, that's a great move for NY, they lost some depth but nothing they can't look for in February among ring chasers and FAs...
KAT disappears every post season, might as well try something new.
That sounds right. I hope for them this will lead to something because buying high and selling (relatively) low doesn't seem a good strategy on a long term
Regular season it'll probably look like a bad trade for Minnesota. But that's not what this trade is about. During the playoff KATs going to fold like a lawn chair in New York. Randle and Dante will be solid roll players and that's enough to make this trade an upgrade for Minnesota.
Remember that story about how Jimmy Butler clowned the T-wolves starting five with some G League players? Guess who Jimmy was gaurding during that scrimmage lol.
