Breaking out! Transaction restart! Is it really coming? Wow! Huazi

This year's NBA Finals have not started yet, so I'm talking about trading during this period.

Regarding the Timberwolves' offseason dilemma, Basketball has actually written a special article for analysis before.

Simply put, it is not optimistic.

failed to reach the NBA Finals, but the Timberwolves' salary space was basically locked down, and the players' salary expenditure was second only to the Suns, triggering the second rich line.

This is unacceptable to the Timberwolves, and their lineup has obvious shortcomings.

The only core scorer with the ball is Edwards, and Gobert and Randall are both useless in the division final level.

McDaniels and Walker are both role players, and Conley is old.

The team's lineup can see its head at a glance, and it also encountered the problem of renewing the contract between Randall, Reed and Walker, three major rotation players.

But the dilemma in our eyes, perhaps in the eyes of NBA team management, is still full of opportunities, mainly depending on whether we have the courage to make a big deal.

Timberwolves, just restart the transactions that were not completed on the mid-season trading deadline of this season.

Their target, hahahahaha, it's still Durant.

Durant is the top star in the NBA offseason this year, and it is a hot commodity that all teams want to mix it up.

Since the Suns said that Durant can be traded, many teams have been involved with Durant.

The Rockets, Warriors, Heat, Grizzlies, and even the Basketball Team Mavericks.

But there has never been a timberwolve.

According to ESPN, the Timberwolves have actually communicated with the Suns very actively before the mid-season trading deadline this year, wanting to get Durant.

But at that time, the Timberwolves didn't want to break up the lineup or give out too many draft picks. They also wanted to compete with their existing lineup.

As the Timberwolves were swept out by the Thunder Gentleman in the Western Conference Finals, the lineup proved useless, so the Timberwolves planned to restart trading negotiations.

Currently, the Timberwolves have the Pistons' first round pick in 2025, the first round pick in 2026, and the first round pick in 2028 and 2030.

Timberwolves' competitors are very strong, mainly the Rockets.

The US media has already given the Rockets' trading plan:

The Rockets send Dillon Brooks, Jabbarry Smith Jr., Aaron Holiday, Langdale and the 10th pick in the first round this year and the first round pick in 2027, while the Suns send Durant.

Do you guys think this deal is reliable?

Even so, the Timberwolves are still optimistic about getting Durant.

Today, according to NBA famous reporter Jake Fischer, the Suns are expected to put Durant on the shelves again in the next few weeks after confirming the new coach.

So the American gambling website updated Durant's next odds in time: the Timberwolves ranked first, with +250, which means betting 100, and if the price is hit, you will get 350 with the principal and interest.

are ranked behind the Rockets +300, Mavericks +750, Spurs +900 and Heats +900.

But if the Timberwolves want to trade for Durant, the most suitable salary and ability is undoubtedly Randle.

or according to NBA famous reporter Jake Fischer, if the Timberwolves want to push this big deal this summer, Randall must execute his $30.9 million player option.

In this way, Randall's salary can become a key bargaining chip in potential trading Durant, and he must make a decision before June 30.

After all, Randle is used to match the contract. What the Suns want is draft picks. The Timberwolves need to seize the time to collect more first-round picks to impress the Suns and Durant.

Just imagine that Durant teamed up with Edwards, and this scene is not ugly.

If KD can really come, then I really want to congratulate Edwards.
