And I do think that, to your point about Dyson Daniels and so many others, I think that right now the biggest question mark for the Wolves going into this summer is what do they do with that three-headed...

front court, Nasri, Julius Randle, and Rudy Gobert.

I don't think that they can go into next season with those same three guys here.

And if you're going to change out Rudy, you give up a lot of defense, you give up a lot of just leadership and competency and all of those things, but you probably unlock some more offensive firepower from Edwards and Randle and everyone else.

If you change out Randle and get some more shooting power,

around Rudy.

Maybe that makes him viable for another couple of years.

But I think that especially a Gobert Randall front court that is just so limited from a three point shooting standpoint, it makes them so easy to guard and it makes it so much tougher on Anthony Edwards to operate in the half court.

that something has to give there, whether it is Gobert, whether it is Randall, what they do.

But yeah, I believe Rudy has more than made up for what they paid for him.

But I also fully acknowledge that there are flaws and that there are special circumstances that you have to set up around him to continue to make this a good, viable pairing with Anthony Edwards.

Yeah, I think the one thing that I'm just going to watch closely is if there is one more leap for Anthony Edwards to make.

He was kind of the pseudo point guard this year, and it was good in some areas but not good in others.

His assist numbers dropped, but...

Every summer, we've seen him address a weakness and make it a strength.

Two years ago, he needed to improve his three-point shooting, and then he made more threes than any player in the league.

Last year, he needed to improve his clutch performance, his mid-range and rim finishing.

Then he was right in line for Clutch Player of the Year and was excellent down the stretch in games.

This year, I think he goes into the summer saying, I need to be...

kind of more cognizant of getting my teammates involved and making plays and making reads and getting off the ball when I need to and finding guys.
