Klay Thompson's Dad says Love to GSW (rumor/offer)

[Fafnir]

Absolutely. Klay Thompson is closing in as a star in this league. Great defender, great shooter, and he's learning to attack the basket year by year.

His free throw rate of .147 FTA/FGA is around Avery Bradley's, which is to say he doesn't attack the basket very much at all.

When did Thompson become the best shooting guard in the league

Looks like a good deal for both sides. Wolves need to get rid of martin and this is the perfect way

Not if they give up the #13 pick. That's just dumb.

WHAT! So Wolves are offering THEIR own pick, Barea, Martin, and Love for Thompson/Lee? LOL, either Saunders is high on smack, or clearly smoke screening.

Even Saunders isn't that dumb

WWWWWHHHHAATTTTTTTTTTT!!!!!
NOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!

hold on...that actually is kinda underrating KLove...really you are going to Give the 13th pick with KLOVE for Thompson and Lee? really
something's fishy

[Who]

PG: Rubio
SG: Klay Thompson
SF:
PF: David Lee
 C: Nikola Pekovic

Maybe they could trade Kevin Martin for a true SF. Final piece needed to complete starting lineup.

A bench consisting of JJ Barea, Corey Brewer and G.Dieng has good potential.

A low lottery pick to play with and the Warriors pick as well.

Edit: Hang on ... updated offer includes Kevin Martin, JJ Barea and T'Wolves lottery pick with Warriors sending no pick. That seems insane. Don't buy that. Must be wrong.

Twolves would be giving up a #1, along with Love?

Are we sure that David Kahn isn't just wearing a Flip Saunders' mask?

Oh man, if the Wolves send Love + a lottery pick out I will just laugh my ass off. Terrible short sighted sort of move.

Or, possibly, a reasonable assessment of Kevin Love's actual abilities and potential.

I'll just see myself out.

The Wolves will be the worst run franchise in the NBA if this happens.

it seems to be a lopsided trade for GS doesn't it?
nothing against Lee or Thompson

Love trade talk mostly surrounds Kevin Love & Kevin Martin for Klay Thompson & David Lee, source told Yahoo Sports.

I doubt it's true.  Such a trade can't be completed until after the draft, at any rate, as Minny owes a protected pick to Phoenix next year.

this is all I needed to read = LEVERAGE

Real talk, no snarkiness about Love: I also think you guys are underestimating how bad Kevin Martin's contract is relative to his production -- think about the 1st rounder as the cost of getting rid of him.

Thompson + Lee for Love is ok, if the Wolves are looking for players who can contribute to a possible 8th seed run tomorrow.

Pricing the cost of Getting rid of Martin in exchange as a first round pick is right up the Dubs alley -- remember, they bailed on Jefferson and Beidrins the same way.
