Mayo heads to Memphis, Love to Minnesota

Yeah well, they did get Miller who is a past ROY winner (thin year) and a top shooter which is handy when you project that the wolves now have two post scorers to draw in the D... But the problem will never be scoring, it will stopping the other team scoring... this just means you lose games 120-112 instead of 105-95...

You gotta have the balance between top defending and top scoring.

I think it would be easier for a GM to develop a defensive squad, then try to find a couple of guys that can facilitate the offence re Pistons, Spurs and Celtics, than getting a scoring team and picking a couple of key defenders re Phoenix, Now Orleans and Utah.

Problem with that is that it doesn't put bums on seats.....it just might get you a parade though...

Don't AL and Love play the same position?
ie- Too short to play center center?

So the Wolves are saying- instead of a foye/Mayo backcourt with Al in the middle, they would rather Foye carry the backcourt and have a stronger (but ultimately failed) frontcourt.

We just saw again how important defence is to winning champs- if his intention is to build a contender, then AL and Love will not get it done. Miller is a nice add but again- he would be a luxery guy on a good defensive team that has a strong defender in the middle. Think spurs or magic.

Now with regard to Memphis... Could it be we actually have a Gay/Mayo backcourt? lol!
