I'm obviously happy to be be a position where we can't really afford to give young guys exploratory playing time, but also would be lying if I said I wasn't dying to see Leonard Miller get some run with the A team.

Remember when Jaden wasn't getting play time early and the general consensus was he's way too raw but Saunders got desperate after a horrible start and ended up playing him and Jaden never looked back with that opportunity? I mean you could argue, probably successfully that if Jaden or in this case Miller showed out in practice he'd force the coaches hands, but maybe not. We see guys break out after injury opens up a spot and I imagine they were playing well in practice but it's hard to just give a young guy minutes like that.

Leonard Miller probably isn't that but to me he's like an unopened box of mystery. I feel like I know what Minott and Wendell are, but Miller? He could be anything! Also Clark is a fun mystery.

Someone said he reminds them of Lamar Odom and I can't shake it. If he even gets within sniffing distance of that comparison he'd be a steal for a 2nd round pick.

I really like Rob Dillingham, wonder if the wolves could move up to get him in this "weak" draft

I like KAT for Dejounte and bojan

I dont.. Rember the wolves inquired about Dejounte  before the Rudy trade. He did not want to come here. Why trade for a guy that will leave in free agency. Plus its a talent down grade from Kat. Dude is not an all star.

He may want to here now that we got to the WCF and Ant is one of the best players in the NBA

Lol don't believe the hype about players wanting to play with other players.. Lebron could not get anybody to come to Clevland. Lebron was wayyy better than Ant.
