What the T-Wolves should do with thier picks

[QuinielaBox]

Trade all of them to the Celtics along with Ryan Gomes, Al Jefferson, and Bassy Telfair for KG, Pierce, and Ray Allen.

If they can get Curry and Flynn to go along with Big Al they will be one of my favorite teams to watch.

I would definitely see about acquiring one of their big men.

Which one?  Their only decent backup is Craig Smith and he's a well undersized PF, and we already have enough of those.

Can't say I'm interested in Etan, Pecherov, Songaila, or Madsen.  They were called "flotsam" in that trade for a reason.

I'd look at Songaila, since the price tag wouldn't be too dear.

Scal and cash for Songaila and the #28, perhaps?

I think they got their heart sent on Tyreke Evans.

T Wolves walk outta the draft with a combination of Tyreke Evans and Stephen Curry.

Then they'll have a starting lineup of

Curry and evans
Corey Brewer
Al Jefferson and Kevin Love

The only person who won't be a top 7 pick there will be Big Al.

Yeah, they won't be great but they'll be decent with an eye towards the future.

Not as much potential as OKC maybe but still a lot of potential.

The one thing they have that OKC doesn't is an above average front court duo (which Jefferson and Love already are) with a near unlimited ceiling.

OKC makes up for it by having a superstar and one-day MVP kind of player in Durant. 

If OKC gets Curry, Rubio, or Harden, I think they'll be pretty stacked in another year or two.

The Wolves could be that way if they pick the right guys with their draft picks.  We'll see.

Oh , I agree about Durant being a once in 7-8 drafts player. But frontcourts win championships, so in that sense the T-Wolves are farther along if Love keeps developing.

You might be right.  If the T-Wolves get say...Curry and Harden (if they get lucky and Sacramento takes Evans or Flynn) then they'll have 4 great young building blocks: Curry, Harden, Love, and Big Al.

They'd still have a big hole at SF (a hole Brewer or Gomes isn't likely to adequately fill) and they still wouldn't have a great bench, but that's a solid nucleus for a team that could be quite good in a few years, maybe even more so than OKC.  Especially since the T-Wolves will probably get another high lottery pick next year which they could possibly use to pick up a good forward.
