Logic?

~Roy and Aldridge don't make bank for a couple of years, and Miller would be nothing more than an afterthought by then.
~If Webster was a "good" SG, then wouldn't we have seen it by now?
~Who'd play the tough Center minutes for the Blazers, because I don't know if you saw Oden last season, but...

That is a good deal for the Blazers but Minnesota would not want to do that deal.

Last time

these two made a deal the Blazers ended up with Roy and T-Wolves got Foye. :)
But...this trade is too good for the T-Wolves. Webster will score and Joel is a solid center especially as a backup. Brewer is unproven and Mike Miller wasn't Miller last year. T-Wolves win all the way on this deal, well player wise. Picks advantage to the Blazers.

Webster isn't an upgrade

Webster isn't an upgrade over Brewer. Joel isn't the type of Center the TWolves are looking for. Minnesota would rather keep the 16th pick.

When did Minnesota get the 16 pick?

Don't the Bulls have the 16th pick?

Pryzbilla is EXACTLY the center the Wolves are looking for... too bad he's not in this draft.

I dont know...Minnesota can

I dont know...Minnesota can rake up in this draft. I think if they could get Flynn, Mullens and Brown in the Draft...they could fight for a playoff spot.

Pryzbilla is slow, not great

Pryzbilla is slow, not great on defense, doesn't block many shots.....The TWolves would rather have a center like Thabeet. Minn would also rather take a chance on Mullens then trade their pick for Pryzbilla who is getting old. Timberwolves are building a young team. Brewer is better then Webster. Plus getting rid of Miller...no way Minnesota would make this trade.

Rodriguez & Fernandes & Bayless & the 24th pick for the 18th pick & Craig Smith & Foye & Miller.......That would be a cool trade.
