What could we offer and would it be better than other teams? Legitimately asking, there would be huge competition for Ant and he might also have a say on where to go. For instance, if Boston is really out of sorts with Brown and Ant wants out, a swap might be better for both teams than any other offer. Would KD, Reed, and both 27 picks, and both 29 picks and 2031 pick do it? Amen, Ant, Tari?, Jabari, Sengun. How do you fill out the bench over the next several years?
Pretty sure that’s right and I think it would have to be Amen. Sengun has very little value for them.
I'd like to pair Ant with Amen. I'd give them anyone else though and the rumors have some backing behind them I think. Minny knows Ant is not going to be patient there, the allure of a bigger market, warmer city, is going to appeal to him. Kind of why I was hoping they'd lose in the first round, maybe speed it up. But Minny really can't do much to improve that team. I feel like they are in the spot Morey was after the Westbrook trade. All bullets spent. Their best move is to get KD but I hang up the phone on them in that case. KD and Ant are reportedly super cool with each other so I'd be using KD to help lure him here. They don't really have anything I'd want from them outside of Jaden any ways.
Ant is signed for 3 more years and a trade would gut the team he's traded to. It's understandable he's putting heavy pressure on the T-Wolves to improve, but they have him locked up and I think he's smart enough to know a trade may not put him any closer to a championship. I also think he likes playing for Chris Finch.
