What is the hypothetical package for Simmons that the T-wolves would put together?
Wild that GS has Andrew Wiggins and they're like "uh, maybe we should stand pat, this Simmons guy has a lot of questions about mental fortitude".

By reilo Go To PostIt is funny that Lacob is saying that about Ben yet Draymond is a key to their success and he's got similar flaws.Draymond wants to win at least
You can have all the talent and physical gifts you want, but if you have no heart then you’re useless. He already has Wiggins
By Adam Go To PostZion is the Simmons of NO?
But Pac
More like Kawhi going "fuck this team"
By reilo Go To PostNo, Rosas got fired because he sucks and the new owners don't want him around. He hasn't done anything since he took over except burn through assets and balloon the payroll. If not for lucking into Edwards, I don't know what he's really produced. The team is horrible and they paid the tax last year for 22 wins.
Got fired because he didn't want to trade for Ben Simmons
By domino Go To PostLOOOL
Lmao
Rumors that Rosas was having an affair with good assistant, too. I have seen no proof of it, just talk.

By Not Go To PostRosas really got fired over Ben SimmonsIt's disingenuous to say it's all about Simmons. They don't have anything to trade for Simmons, for one, and the reason he feels pressure is because of how bad he's been at his job. Lost the pick this year for DLo, basically lit a lottery pick on fire (and gave away a rotation piece with Saric) with the Jarrett Culver trade, he blew up the payroll and all the cap flexibility, etc.
Seattle Wolves down bad
Rosas is just so astoundingly bad at being a GM.
By Not Go To PostBut nobody saw this coming? What was the tipping point I wonderTiming is definitely weird, but talk is that the new owners basically decided the biggest problem is Rosas, who was not only not impressive, but also a dick. And now that he's gone, we suddenly have people willing to talk about the the team's apparent inner "strife" that they helped keep secret because Rosas was nice to them and gave them quotes all the time. Dude talked more on background than anybody since McHale.
If you just paid $1.5B for this team, what the hell are you gonna keep this guy around for? He's done nothing except draft Edwards by sheer luck.

Wish it hadn't taken Leonsis so long to realize the same.
Imagine buying a team that's done nothing but fail but keeping the same leadership. SMH.

Draymond ain't shook tho

By Kuma Go To PostDraymond ain't shook thoDraymond needs a bit more shook in him honestly.
By diehard Go To Postthis offseason has been incredibly boring
By reilo Go To PostStill no word about the Lonzo Ball tampering from two months ago.
By Kibner Go To PostSmhKibner, my good friend…
Never got involved with nfts or crypto. Scams all the way down.
How is that leather couch holding up?
Get your potentially life saving vaccine and get millions of dollars or don’t and don’t get paid millions seems like an easy choice
Also fuck the players union leadership on this.

By Zep Go To PostKibner, my good friend…I haven't seen it in two years because I hadn't taken it with me when I moved in with my gf, just in case things didn't work out. I'm actually planning on heading back home in the next month to go pick it up (among other things) and bring it over.
How is that leather couch holding up?
Over Rosas’ two seasons in Minnesota, several player agents privately had issues with his negotiating tactics. Rosas had a responsibility to his organization and ownership, but scenarios would arise where representatives expected better treatment. Just this offseason, Rosas reneged during negotiations with restricted free agent Jordan McLaughlin and misled him about his role, according to a source directly involved in the talks.
“Rosas was the cause of mishaps and pulled his promises,” the source said.
McLaughlin was one of the first players Rosas reached out to when free agency opened, but things changed when he acquired veteran guard Patrick Beverley in a trade with Memphis. Beverley is a more established player and the younger McLaughlin quickly went from being prioritized as a ballhandler who figured to get significant minutes to a reduced role behind D’Angelo Russell and Beverley on the depth chart.
