I'm glad you have a crystal ball. Like every other franchise, the wolves are one blown out knee and one trade demand from being back in the lottery. You have no clue what this team will look like in 2027, especially if Lore/ARod can't afford to keep it together.Except they didn't trade the next decade away. Every young core player is locked up for the future.
You need to stop acting like giving up late 1st round picks is somehow mortgaging the future. The Wolves got back to the top of the 2nd round to take a 1st round talent in Miller and he doesn't play. They'll have their end of the 1st round pick this year, yet many are calling this the worst NBA draft class in history.
Unless you have one of the top picks, the NBA draft is a much as a crapshoot as the MLB or NHL. Without Rudy the Wolves are in the play in round again this year. It's amazing how several of you would rather have that over a team that can actually compete for a NBA championship.
The 2020 draft was supposed to be terrible. It ended up being above average.
I'm amused by your kool aid gulp that Leonard Miller is a first round talent. I was at the game Tuesday night against the Wizards, the second or third worst team in the league. They were missing a bunch of their guys. After basically a year and a half in the G league and garbage minutes for the wolves, Miller wouldn't have gotten minutes if he were playing for the Wizards in that game against the wolves. That's how out of place he looks when he does get on the court.
