Been a few weeks thinking through matters…and the Wolves can’t go into next season with an incomplete team. They have to do something. Maybe it’s LBJ but that feels so lofty. The big one is Rudy, who is getting dicey age wise. Can’t wait too long there. Might be the right time.

@TwolvesBlog 1. Rudy hasnt fallen off at all in the past 4 years. 2. Why would we not just wait until the deadline to find out if we should pivot off of Rudy or flip something else for a PF?

@Perrywinkle1267 Yeah it would be hard sell unless it generated something of immediate fit high value. His ability to generate routine season winning might be too important for the time being. Clock ticking a bit though, and gotta sell at a reasonable high (and not a fucking salary dump)

@TwolvesBlog The difference between Rudy and Randle is that Rudy is an actually complimentary player on this team, and has shown a willingness to take pay cuts to stick around. Like if hes not traded this year, hes getting extended at a much lower AAV.

@Perrywinkle1267 I could see that too. All roads lead back to roster imbalance. They just need another front court player in the mix. Whether it’s Rudy out or other means.

@TwolvesBlog Right, but the road out of imbalance is at the trade deadline when Ayo gets traded for said front court player
