Re: Ideal PG for this roster
like i said, we (and teague) would be "lucky" if someone dangled that kind of offer to him. i'm tired of him pounding the ball into senselessness - his fourth quarter brain freeze - and that he often passes up shots that are obviously open. one gets the feeling that he's not taking those shots because a) he's shooting poorly now and b) he is worried that more misses mean worse % means a drop in his value on the open market. when in reality, for the good of the team, he's got to take those shots whether he hits or misses them. teams are catching on that he's reluctant to pull the trigger and that just allows them to D up the other guys closer. we can do better.UnFadeable21 wrote: ↑Fri Dec 14, 2018 10:27 amTeague won't get an offer like that because Dinwiddle is on the upside in his career.

Re: Ideal PG for this roster
i think garland will be available where we pick. it's been said that his injury won't affect his draft status - but i've got to think he'll slide at least a couple of spots.
question for him as a pro is how long will it take him to adapt to the strength issues he'll face. and even if he'll be able to. 6-3 175 is pretty slim - doesn't help i suppose that he has the face of an 8th grader. but i'd be leery about picking him - unless he's a bonafide 3 point assassin, idk. but with only four games under his college belt, his 11 for 23 47% 3pt record isn't enough of a marker to assess how it's going to play out over long nba seasons and at nba 3 distance. even with all his other skills, i worry that his ceiling as a pro is a decent backup.
unless ja morant is available when we pick, i'd rather take one of the bigs that'll be there. drop tyus and pursue a backup sharpshooting PG in free agency. quinn cook, anyone? he's quietly dropped 3s at a 44% rate over three nba seasons.
btw, i'm not saying that quinn cook is the ideal PG for our roster. what might be happening though is that we'll be needing/wanting to fill multiple PG slots on our roster. we currently have 5 - and 4 of them go to free agency this summer. the only one who isn't (teague) we're hoping finds a new home on his own or via trade.

Teague would be perfect if he would initiate the offense, go spot up and actually shoot. Perfect I tell ya! That’s what sucks. He just won’t do it.

Teague has shown himself to have the mental stability of a piece of kindling. He's here, barring a trade, forever. Or, next season anyway. It'll feel like waiting for Pek to miss enough games in a row to be written off the books, all over again...

Teague has one year left and can at least play. Maybe he'd be a more effective backup and if nothing else, he's a big expiring contract next year to work into a trade.

Re: Ideal PG for this roster
The answer is Jeff Teague. His health is starting to fail and his shot is getting worse. He's not opting out of 19 million. He'll be the starting PG again next season. Thibs should of made the 3rd year a team option since the salary was so high already.

Much to my surprise, the answer is Derrick Rose.
I am a big Jeff Teague fan, but he hasn't been healthy or a good fit with the Wolves.

Thibs will continue to play him heavy minutes even though we could get by with Rose/Tyus just fine. Who would have thought two years ago they'd get rid of Rubio (yes, they got the first which landed Okogie) to sign to a longer/bigger contract in Teague.
George Hill took to the 2+1 from the Kings, team option for next year. That would have been nice for Teague.

Re: Ideal PG for this roster
I would sign Jeremy Lin. Dude has good size, can finish at the rim, shoot the 3, and pass.
I think the max we can offer Rose next season is 4 years 40 million. I like Drose a lot but those 25 shots a night isn’t going to win us many games.

Re: Ideal PG for this roster
as much as he's played well, you can't offer rose a four year contract. at some point, sooner than later, his knees will catch up to him and you just can't give a 30 year old with that kind of mileage a four year deal - unless you could frontload the thing like $14M/$10M/$8M/$6M. and i doubt that rose would agree to that. if he did, that would tell you a lot about his own confidence in his longterm health.

I remember Cory Cove being all over Teague's nuts. I didn't know why. I know he has break out games here and there but he's a one trick pony who's scared to do that one trick at times.flexbuffchest wrote: ↑Tue Dec 11, 2018 12:06 pm Jeff "I never miss the play offs" Teague ids the right guy
It's been 32 years since one of MN's four major sports teams has been to the Championship/Superbowl.
Every single year is failure until we win one. 4 teams, 32 years. That's roughly 128 consecutive failed seasons.

still like how tomas satoransky would fit with this team. decent D, great size, always moves the ball, smart, athletic, good stroke from 3, positional flexibility, ready to take on a bigger role, but would be okay with sharing time with rose at that spot, won't cost a ton.

I’m hoping Teague opt into his player option year. He would be a great guy to trade with Dieng to get some cap space to sign Taj Gibson.

Now that Tyus may be out for an extended time
how about someone like

Dinwiddleyo over teague?
