Wolves will get the 11th pick and take a PF to replace Taj. PJ Washington or Brandon Clarke are good possibilities. 1st pick isn't happening. This is the Wolves we are talking about here. We don't get nice things.

Yuck. So they plan on playing no defense in the paint. Towns and Saric= dog shit D in the paint.

Yuck
It would be PF by committee. Saric is not a 36-minute/82 game guy. He's a platoon/matchup guy. He can be really good in that role, but that's what he is.

Saric is tougher than he's given credit for and KAT simply needs to improve. If you think some 19 year old rookie makes up for Taj Gibson next season, I'll take some of your rock that you're smoking.

I think drafting a rookie PF that plays solid defense is better then rolling with Saric and Giorgi next year. Plus, the rookie may end up better then Taj eventually.

If Wolves get #1, it means the ghost of Flip Saunders influenced the ping pong balls and will be a message they have to hire his son as head coach.

BPA. If that is a PF, so be it. But there is no need to replace Saric at this point.

Speaking of Ping Pong balls... I remember as a teen watching Cinemax late one night and Emanuelle in Bankok was on. There is a scene where a dancer shoots ping pong balls out of her vagina. They showed the whole thing.

Saric can suck an egg... He sucks. I wouldn't be surprised if he gets traded by the new guy in charge.

Ever seen the movie Beer League with Artie Lange?

They get a stripper for somebody's bachelor party. Her nickname is the pitching machine.

Hilarious movie.

Me either but he has more value to someone than fucking Saric. As much as i don't want Ball, I would do that trade in a heartbeat.

So you want to trade Saric for Ball because you think we can trade Ball to someone else for more return?
