"With a heavy heart Ive removed Mike Conley from the Wolves Salary spreadsheet. Minnesota now has two open roster spots and have ducked the first apron leaving $2.45m in space under the 1st apron. If youre wondering what the return is it appears to be the flexibility that comes from getting out of the apron penalties. Minnesota can now take back salary (albeit only $2.5m) where previously we had to 100% match or send out more money. The Wolves just became easier to worth with. Something that is crucial if youre to be successful in piecing together a 4-5 team blockbuster."

"When flexibility is being talked about around the Mike trade this is what is meant. Getting out of the apron penalties helps open more pathways this season. Because theyre now $15 million under the 2nd apron they can also tap into their taxpayer exception of $5.7m to go over the minimum to sign a player. Next summer theyll begin $24 million below the 1st apron and have a $10.7m trade exception which makes them a much easier partner to work with should they decide to go star hunting again in the trade market.

Heres why: Right now the Timberwolves have $14996301 under the 2nd apron. Naz Reid has a player option for $15022464 so assuming he opts out that leaves the Timberwolves with $30018765 in space under the second apron. Julius Randle has a player option for $30935520 which counts as $32408640 towards the cap. If you trade Randle for expiring contracts that gives you a grand total of $62427405 under the 2nd Apron.

"Rudy Gobert on the perimeter is one of those dialogues where the discourse is so far from reality. Last year Rudy was incredible at guarding the perimeter holding opponents to .73 points per possession when defending in ISO. The Timberwolves often closed games with Rudy taking on the challenge because of how elite he was at it all year. This is why we didn't double on "the shot" in game [--]. For an entire season Rudy was one of the premier isolation defenders in the league. Secondly everyone likes to forget that he forced Luka to miss the possession before.

The national media gassed the Lakers far beyond their capabilities. They still have Luka and are capable of beating anyone on any given night because of him. But their roster shortcomings were always going to get them bounced sooner rather than later.
