Just days before training camps begin, the Knicks and Timberwolves have agreed to a blockbuster deal that will see Karl-Anthony Towns land in New York and Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo head to Minnesota, sources confirmed to ESPN.
I definitely did not see that. I know Kat is not the centerpiece of Minnie’s future but they already spent a lot to get Gobert (compared to what was given for KD), now they acquired an inflated strong forward with some health issues in Randle and a protected pick, the shooter is the real only upside imo but not worth the trade.
However, I often disagree with Minnie’s GM, so…
On the other side, that’s a great move for NY, they lost some depth but nothing they can’t look for in February among ring chasers and FAs…
That sounds right.
I hope for them this will lead to something because buying high and selling (relatively) low doesn’t seem a good strategy on a long term

KAT disappears every post season, might as well try something new.
