    Wesley Johnson is like the wing version of Johnny Flynn. I have no idea why people want him.

    An unprotected 1st round pick would be a terrible idea. You could pick up a virus or a wart or something.

    Ellis has a much higher value through the league than martin. Pecko has a higher value accross the league than martin. If there was a framwork for pecko,martin,picks,and players would be involved. Martin was traded for carl landry. Martin hasn't played better,he's played worse and he's 1 dimensional.

    If I'm the Wolves, I hold Rubio/Love/Pekovic at all costs.

    Martin would work well on the Twolves. Nice scoring option, nice compliment player.

    This is as good of an example of "taking one for the team" as you can get.

    Value throughout the league is not what matters. The T-Wolves has a huge hole in the shooting guard position, and added bonus, because of how well Martin played in Adelman's system, I would think his value would be higher to the T-Wolves.

    Trade Martin for the Incredible Hulk of the NBA??? Yes please! That guy is just a monster, completely unstoppable down low.

    The TWolves wouldn’t do it though. It just solves one problem to create another because Darko is the suck.

    Exactly I doubt Adelman would rather have Ellis over Martin as his 2 guard.

    If adelman is playing ridinour at the 2,what makes you think he would be happy playing ellis at the 2. He's younger and better. Peko is a young big with upside. I think the wolves are in the drivers seat plain and simple. They could move luke for a 2 guard if they need be. If they get more out their 3 man, they would be good enough at the 2 or combo that spot. Bottomline,martin really isn't worth a lot to any team. Kings gave him away for landry, the rockets would be lucky to get any value for him.

    By the way, just want to point out that Love and Pekovic were the last two draft picks made by Kevin McHale, genius GM.
