The Baseline: Are the T-Wolves on track and are the Hawks wrong for staying intact?
The Baseline is back after the slow trade deadline with an action-packed show. Here’s what we have in store:
The Breakdown
- Are the Timberwolves progressing? Zach Bennett from Cold Omaha and the HP Basketball network joins us to discuss all things Minnesota. Is Andrew Wiggins living up to expectations? Does the team have too many veterans with Kevin Garnett, Tayshaun Prince and Andre Miller? Are Sam Mitchell‘s rotations stunting the growth of Zach LaVine, Shabazz Muhammad and Gorgui Dieng? Is Karl-Anthony Towns the real deal?
The Drop
- The Atlanta Hawks kept the core together was it the right decision? Should the team traded Jeff Teague or Al Horford? When will the team get wing help to bolster the core Kyle Korver, Kent Bazemore and Thabo Sefolosha?
Coast to Coast
- Buy out season has started. David Lee, J.J. Hickson, Andrea Bargnani, Anderson Varejao and Steve Novak are free…Joe Johnson could be next
- D-League call ups: Suns sign Phil Pressey and Clippers sign Alex Stepheson
- Pelicans sign Bryce Dejean-Jones to a three-year deal
