You will get over it. How do you think I felt when we traded Rudy Gay for Battier?

I don't know man. Portland is building themselves a future dynasty in the division while the Wolves just traded away their potential second star away for undersized Kevin Love. This is the kind of move that will set this franchise back several years, like the Roy deal did in 2006.
It's almost pointless with McHale in charge. It's only a matter of time before his next screw up and this mistake is just huge.

I've been following the NBA for almost 20 years, and this might be the worst trade I've ever seen.
I don't understand why Minnie would trade for an overweight PF to pair with their other overweight PF.
This really defies comprehension. I think when you combine the awe-inspiring horridness of McHale with the bumbling idiocy of Rob Babcock you create gems like this. This takes the Carter trade to another level.
If I were a Minnie fan, I think I'd be in front of the Target Centre with torches and pitchforks. I don't what else you could do at this point.

Jefferson isn't overweight. Zach Randolph is overweight. Jefferson is a fuggin beast.

Actually he was wrong on both counts, Love isnt overweight either.

Minny should have kept O.J. How stupid. Memphis should do better next year. They should work on getting a big.

Mcfail does it again, Al Jefferson and Kevin Love don't complement each other at all especially defensively.

Really like it for Memphis. They should be able to do a quick re-build in a couple years now. They have a few good players in Gay, Mayo, and Conley. They might suck this year and be able to get a high pick and add a guy like Derozen, or Rubio. All their young players will be on small contracts, so they'll be way under the cap and add a big time free agent to it next year. Might be a quick re-build for them.

Wow. Thank god I am not a T'Wolves fan. No offense.
Pretty solid trade for Memphis. They've got Conley/Mayo/Gay to build around and if they can find some vets or grab some draft picks etc. to fill their frontcourt then they have I bright future ahead of them.

Come on, man. Mayo's going to have a way better career than either of them. I don't think the Grizz will regret this.
