  • Rockets get Flynn from Wolves for Miller (AP)

    The Houston Rockets acquired point guard Jonny Flynn and Lithuanian big man Donatas Motiejunas in a trade with Minnesota during Thursday night's NBA draft and sent center Brad Miller and the 23rd pick to the Timberwolves. Houston used its first-round pick, No. 14 overall, on Kansas forward Marcus Morris and its second-rounder, No.

    Got a closer look at this whole trade. This one is hilarious. Way to go David Kahn. You make Isiah Thomas look like a genius.

    Wolves trade former #6 pick Flynn and #20 pick Motiejunas to Rockets for 35 year old Brad Miller, #23 pick Mirotic, #38 pick Parsons, and a future first round pick.

    Wolves then trade #23 pick Mirotic to Bulls for #28 pick Cole and #43 pick Lee.

    Wolves then sell #38 pick Parsons back to Rockets.

    Wolves then trade #28 pick Cole to Heat for #31 pick Bogdanovic, a future second round pick and cash.

    Wolves then trade #31 pick Bogdanovic to Nets for a future second round pick and cash.

    Uh???

    Ok so end result this is, Wolves traded former #6 pick Flynn and the #20 pick for a 35 year old center, the #43 pick, a future first round pick, two future second round picks, and cash

    I have never seen a team trade a former high lottery pick and mid first round pick for a player that is going to retire and a mid second round pick.

                    The issue isn't the trade, which they had to do and they did good by getting back solid piece because htey have wrecked Flynn's stock, it was taking Flynn and Rubio in the first place. It was poorly thought of at the time.
