    I would NOT send EG & PJT for a one year rental! Has Jimmy even indicated he wants to be a Rocket?

    TWovles must be idiots.

    You do not need to scout Eric Gordon at this point.
    Everybody knows what he does.

    Gordon and pick/s (alongside Nene, who can probably teach KAT how to grow some balls) looks like a good deal for the Wolves considering the situation they're in (which is really bad)...i think the Rockets are doing the right thing to keep PJ off the table if that's true, especially if they have no idea about what Butler wants.

    Why would a scout come to the game? Pretty sure the Wolves have league pass. Stop giving nobodies free retweets. Fake insiders(and Laker fans) are the cancer of the basketball community.

    They don't have TVs in Minnesota so they had to send some guys to Alabama. They also don't have access to the internet.

    yeah, that was a naive tweet. If they are in attendance, and it is trade related, it would be to check out which "fillers" they like best. Chriss isn't helping us impress them, tonight.

    You can see a lot of things at a game that TV doesn't show.

    two comments

    From the recent postings it sound like Rox offered something and Wolves countered by asking for Gordon/Tucker/first and Rocket said no. Interesting.

    On Jimmy Butler re-signing. If I understand his contract, the max extension he can be offered now by Wolves or anybody is puny compared to what his "team" can offer next year. I air quote team because those rights transfer if he is traded. But an outside team can not offer as much. So if Butler wants the max salary, he has to sign with the team he is traded to. Is that right?

    I suspect so, too. The whole Melo thing last year, we kept thinking Morey was working things for months, when in reality we found out he gave his final offer in like first week of July.

    I suspect same thing. We made our final offer(s) and won't add to them....or at least, no big changes like adding PJ.

    ??

    That's what scouts do.
