Is that all the T-Wolves got in return? I can't believe they turned down all those #1 draft picks from Houston and took that. This makes the 76's contenders in the Eastern Conference.

Rockets screwed the pooch on this one. They had multiple 1st round picks in their hands and let go of them.

They had to trade Butler. He forced the T-Wolves into a corner. They will still be a good team. It all depends on how the new guys fit in.
