Timberwolves Wanted Jaylen Brown But Backed Out Due To Celtics’ Asking Price

Comments

1. Null Pulse: the setup is clean
2. Emmac: Edwards for Brown doesn't scream 'win-now' move to me, but I guess the TW would've taken the gamble
3. Kiana: seems a hefty price to pay for potential championships
4. Danesantos: crazy how a dollar amount can change everything in a trade
5. Milan: wait a minute, they were close to giving edwards what it takes to thrive in this league and then they let price hold them back?
6. Halcyon Jackal: come on if they were really that close to making a deal why are we just hearing this now, transparency in NBA dealings?
7. Karimfelix: edwards is that good, if the price was too high what were they expecting to get for him instead
8. Norakaur: they were really close to pulling the trigger but ended up backing down
9. Void Sable: They wanted him but couldn't stomach the cost for a guy who doesn't move needles
10. Sana: what's the actual asking price when they're saying "dissuaded" here?
11. Ava: It's weird they'd shy away from Brown for an asking price, wasn't he supposed to be a priority?
12. Noelreyesxo: that price is just insane can't imagine what the Celtics must have been thinking
13. Ashen Kite: their asking price is usually just an excuse when you're really afraid to part with a star player like Brown
14. Void Beacon: what would they have gotten out of this trade that was worth that price tag?
15. Ember Comet: came close to shaking things up in the west, but that asking price's gotta sting some
16. Aiden: seems like a classic case of overthinking the win now
17. Lucas Larsen: Sounds like the Celtics priced themselves right out of a possible deal. Maybe they should've gotten creative instead of trying to max Brown out
18. Noraellis: seems like a trade that could've had some fire, but ultimately came down to dollars and sense for the Wolves
19. Ravi: apparently not everyone gets to be worth every penny
20. Quiet Talon: what exactly made the Celtics' asking price so egregious? was it strictly cash or some other combination factor?
21. Ranaomar: sounds like the Celtics really know their own value this time around
22. Omar: guess that means Boston was serious about selling their star for once
23. Fathom Pulse: guess that 3-team trade was closer than we thought ⬆️
24. Onyx Drift: Edwards and Brown would've been unstoppable together, but I don't blame the Wolves for backing out – Brown's value is way too high right now
25. Milamarsh: still can't fathom why teams overthink deals like this
26. Neon Jackal: thought they'd go all in for Edwards, but I guess that price for Brown was just too steep now wonder if that means Tyrese Haliburton is their new target
27. Rayan: thought they were dead serious about competing this season, guess not
28. Kian: it sounds like the T-wolves got cold feet
29. Fathom Reaper: can't believe they let those deals slip through their fingers again
30. Jonasm: seems like they really liked Brown's shooting but couldn't swallow the cost
