MIN get Ilyasova and Roberson
OKC get Gay and Rush
SAC get Shabbaz and 2nd from MIN.

Really the only player on the thunder I'm really interested in, that I feel might be a workable deal, is Sabonis. And I'd be willing to trade pretty much any combo of guys outside of the core to get him.
Rubio/ Dunn
Lavine/ Dunn
Wiggins
Sabonis
Towns
That's a core I could roll with for years.

I think Sabonis will be a nice NBA player, but I don know that he gets to the level you're expecting.

I don't necessarily think he'll be a star, I'd be shocked if he is. That's why I wouldn't trade core pieces. My idea is that for all the talent Minny has they need a guy with a rodman or draymond kind of mentality. Not comparing talent levels just the mindset of a guy willing to do the dirty work, rebound, set picks, deliver a couple hard fouls, while still having enough talent to hang with the other starters. Its more about fit, than that I think he'll be great.

So essentially Sac gives up Gay for free? Try again.

Which is why as a thunder fan i love a Adams/ Sabonis combo down low.

Im assuming that Rush is Brandon Rush from MN? The one they just signed?
And why would the Wolves trade 2 wing players for another PF? They need another wing roght now, not another big.

@thunderfan: an Adams, Sabonis combo is definitely going to leave a lot of frontcourt duos bruised and battered.
