There is NO WAY they include McDaniels in any trade. There is also NO WAY they trade Gobert after 12 months on a "four 1st round picks"-loss for a Dinwiddie/Bertans like package They will ride this out at least another full season. After three years of play-offs you have a much needed answer on KAT. Any young player can stink up one play-off series, he might even stink up a 2nd series (not a good start for KAT on that), but if he goes for the three-peat next year you are much more comfortable moving either KAT or Gobert in 2024.
Edwards/McDaniels are 21/22 years old. They won´t rush this.
These trades are just a fantasy imho. Though as Chicago pointed out Gobert would be the perfect Cuban target. Grossly overpaid, 31 years old, and living off his reputation. As such you should find it more likely that Cuban gives the Wolves at least the #10 pick, the 2027 pick, Kleber/THJ/Bertans.
The combination of the league going young and Cuban is a deadly combination.
League: Let´s get rid of any 30+ year old BIG MONEY player that is not a legit superstar with good health, an impeccable work ethic and locker room reputation.
Mark Cuban: Come to papi, Kyrie and Rudy.
So conclusion, you won´t get Gobert for cheap in the next 12 months, but if you give the Wolves our remaining two 1st round picks, they might do it. Whether that´s good or bad news, I leave up to you.
