    No way this is not related to Ben Simmons, or the 76ers because of the timing. Someone with influence on the TWolves want Ben Simmons likely for KAT. GM probaly didn't want to trade KAT and draft assets for Simmons.

    Well that's some wild speculation. Why in the hell would the Sixers want KAT? C'mon, bruh.

    And finally confirmed by Shams

    “But why now? In recent days, the organization discovered that Rosas, who is married, had a consensual intimate relationship with a member of the organization, The Athletic has learned from multiple sources. It made several people within the organization uncomfortable, sources said. While this was not the reason for Rosas’ dismissal, it certainly impacted the timing.

    “This decision was made for performance reasons,” one high-ranking Timberwolves source said.”

    Do you ever get tired of your job Gersson?

    Ironically, Rosas was fired for performing too well and too much. ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

    Rosas blocked Gupta from a job with the rockets. Gupta got his revenge.

    That guy never had a plan. Never got anything accomplished. Just spun his wheels.
