I wonder about KAT.  What has he won?  The Wolves have moved some players in and out of there.  Has he raised the bar?  

KAT isn’t going anywhere for a while. Booker is possible though.

What has anyone won in Minny? It took 9 years for KG to make it out of the first round, and they never made it to the finals.

KAT may never be a , but I'd love to see what he could do playing in Atlanta.

KAT isn't someone good enough to drag a team into contention on his own.  I do think he is good enough to elevate a team that already has good pieces.  I'd also love to see him demand a trade and have our Hawks swoop in and take him away.

You're probably right, but who would've thought any team would trade away Kawhi, AD, Carmelo, Dwight Howard, KG, CP, PG, Harden, etc. all in their primes.

It's not likely KAT or Booker will be traded, but it would be great to be ready if it does happen. They fit age wise, and aren't playing with the most successful of franchises. 

A boy can dream, right?

I'm not so sure about this guy either.  Seems like he doesn't hate losing enough for my taste!

If this were true, then he wouldn't have played for Kentucky.

Or he could be a follower type that went to Kentucky because the wealth of talent wouldn't require him to care much.  Out-talent folks to wins.

'Like' that, AH.

It's funny to me that some of our fans want KAT but not...

Not revisiting that topic ad nauseum. - AHF

Just remember this the next time someone pulls up a old Marvin Williams vs CP3 debate. I am pretty sick of that one as well.

Some here like KAT and some don't like KAT.

The NBA sees both players for what they were/are and the proof is in the pudding; but they are paid a lot of money for that job. We are just a bunch of arm chair quarterbacks who hope to be right every now and then.

I like KAT a lot and think he would take our young team up another level. If Trae, Collins, Huerter, Reddish, Hunter, and next pick develop, I think the sky could be the limit with KAT.

Then again, if all that development happens, Capela could be the answer at Center as well.

Yeah - we aren't revisiting discussions from like a decade ago.  

Come on guys. - AHF

Got confidence in my cats.  Bear in mind that kg's Jackets are a decade out of the tourney.  He needs all the support he can get.

I love KAT, but it was just a Toppin plug. Nothing more, nothing less. Pure elite offense outweighs bad defense from a big was my point.

I'd be happy with Obi One, too.

D'Lo didn't have a choice in the matter so I'm guessing he pounded the table telling the Minnesota management team that they needed to bring in more talent and it wouldn't surprise me if he told them they should get D'Lo since he was glaringly available from the moment GS signed him.

This degree of savagery should be considered conduct unbecoming a mod.  Have you no shame?

It's not our fault the Kitty Kat folds like a deck o' cards at the first sign of pressure.
