I accept. Faried is a great player but he is alittle redundant on my team as he and Randolph are both best at the PF position. This move clears some cap space while increasing my team's depth. I would like to thank Kenneth for his energy and effort and I look forward to seeing him do great things in Minnesota. He and DeMarcus will make a great pairing.

Updated to include Option years on Len, McDermott, and McGary

I accept. DeMarcus Cousins hasn't had a winning season and entered the playoffs, and would like to win now. The Wolves believe having Faried in the lineup will boost our chances. A strong frontcourt tandem of Faried and Cousins is something worth fearing in the years to come.

I think Minny is giving up just a little too much here... Three guys with bird rights who all have potential, his team could have a huge advantage if he spends some money this off-season AND his young guys all develop and he re-signs everyone forever... So I think he might be breaking up a sexy rebuild in favor of contending, which is a bit short-sighted. However, he's not that far off from contention if he moves his assets well... And Faried gives him the frontcourt of a contender.
So, I accept. I'm going to miss how tightly this Minny team was built, but I'm looking forward to seeing how Milt cashes in on his players!

Brian- The only reason why I'm doing this is I'm afraid DMC will move out if we don't win in the next three-four years come his free agency. Otherwise, I wouldnt hesitate to say no. And yes,  I think this is one of the best made long-term teams I ever had.

If people think, however, that my reason is not in line with how the dynamics of d720 are (like the trade offer for Marc Gasol), I am not against having this trade rejected.

The Wolves maintain their position: Go for the best player available without gutting the roster needlessly. #trustthesystem

[Reggie Miller]

I accept.. Faried is a tested player compare to the other 3.. he struggled this year because he is not fit to the system.. I agree with Milt that DMC and Faried would be monsters in the paint..

[Steve Jobs]

I think Faried has a good shot at a breakout year, which would push him closer to a 68-70 than his current 66, but I hate Norris Cole and could never bring myself to take on a salary like Booker's even if it is expiring... Combined with the fact that Len has potential, Mitch McGary has a solid chance of breaking out this year, Doug McD also carries decent potential, and all of the players on MIN come with bird rights and RFA whereas only Faried (and Cole if you match for him) comes with a long contract... it seems like the least that could be done here is not be giving up the better 2nd round pick this year as well.

I think there's a 50/50 chance this ends up being regrettable, but definitely not rejectable. DMC and Faried will hopefully cause some damage together. Accept.
