I guess there are some issues with Towns and Minny, so the rumors have started and the guy in the above link is suggesting:

KAT for Kuz, Ingram and two first round picks

What do you think? Too much?

If it helps LeBron and George sign here, I do it in a second...

PG: Ball
SG: PG13
SF: Lebron
PF: Randle
C: Towns

Yeah, that lineup could challenge...

I've seen a couple of reports on Towns that indicated he was not well liked by the other players there. Not really sure what is going on with that but my guess is jealousy. Also, heard that he and Wiggins are not getting along. Not sure how much of it is true or just conjecture. Lots of conjecture these days by people who don't really know anything.

That being said, I don't really have enough faith in him to trade all that for him. Kuz and BI??? Then add two first round picks?? I don't think so.

But like you say, there are going to be deals done in back rooms here. If we sign PG13 as a FA and figure out a way to get Lebron or Kawhi, then if some deal comes through that allows us to nab Towns and the other guys want him. Well, sure I could deal with that, but I would see it as a third level move, after the main moves have fallen into place.

The issue with Towns IMO is that he's a 3 in a 5's body. He could possibly be the best 5 in the league, if he simply learn to play the role for his team. I'm not saying he can't play outside the paint, because he can, but he definitely can't guard outside the paint which is the problem.

With that being said after some thought and consideration... I'd pass, simply because we may find an equal or better player in the draft at a bargain price. Trade market will be viable as well...

So if the wolfs trade him after three seasons they must be convinced that he is not a player to build around and not a solid role player. Or something else is seriously wrong. Or the Wolfs are stupid.

Next trade rumor please...

Im assuming he's a RFA in 2019? (Wolves simply match any offer on him)
