但是在七月時的交易，大家似乎不是這樣說?
可以參考系列文，這邊附上其中三篇的連結
[情報] Gobert去灰狼
#1YlqrBxJ
#1YlzjXfw
#1Ym8E4-R
當時大家看好的點:
1.DLO+KAT+Gobert，還沒拿明星就換到，這是要衝擊總冠軍了吧
2.灰狼會進攻，但是欠缺人防守，補進DPOY等級球員，有運動能力跟手長的優勢，，還能cover後場防守，無球/擋拆跟擋人品質也是聯盟頂級，搭配DLO跟KAT的三分，戰績預期起飛
3.DLO在傳球能力也不錯，如果有達到類似Ingles在爵士的情況，也能加成Gobert的威力
當然也是有質疑的點:
1.Gobert值4首輪?因為這樣等於交易了未來，如果真的還要戰績補強，可能就比較沒有籌碼
2.雙塔空間拉開跟防守橫移問題要如何處理
3.雙塔遇到雙衛以及後場點名，要如何解決，灰狼體系是否真的能整合Gobert的進攻跟防守，包含側翼組的輪轉協防，發揮1+1>2的情況
但以當時討論來看，至少也是有一些人看好，畢竟灰狼在之前比較偏重攻輕防的球隊，補進DPOY再怎麼說對於防守預期也是會有一些助益，不過當戰績可能沒達到大家的預期，說法似乎又不同了
不知大家覺得呢?

: 雙方對話
: Kirk Goldsberry: I was not a happy person with that trade for Minnesota. And
: I didn’t expect them to be very good, to be honest. The underrated thing
: about that trade—the assets deserved the headline… but some of the human
: beings that left Minnesota, they’re missing too. And the offense just isn’t
: good enough right now. And they’re losing the minutes with Gobert. You pay
: that much for a guy, and he comes in, and you’re a negative team when he’s
: on the floor right now.
: …
: Kirk：對於灰狼的交易，我不滿意，老實說我不期望那筆交易會很好。
: 那筆交易被低估了，雖然資產值得成為頭條新聞，但有些人也離開了灰狼。
: 現在的進攻火力不足，且Gobert上場時他們在輸球
: 你大筆請來一個人，但當他在上場時，團隊的正負值是負的
: Zach Lowe：Almost every trade that is divisive or unpopular—you can find
: some people around the league who will be like, "I kinda see what they were
: going for; I maybe woulda made that deal!"
: Zach：幾乎每筆有爭議的交易，都可以找到一些人說 「我大概知道他們想要幹嘛，
: 我或許也會那樣做」
: The Sabonis-Halliburton one is a good example: I thought people were way too
: critical; I didn’t like that trade for Sacramento; I thought it was a win
: for Indiana. I also thought people were being unfair in how much they railed
: against the Kings. You could find people were like, No, I think it’s Sabonis
: is really good! It’ll work there."
: Sabonis-Halliburton是個好例子，我以為大家太酸了，我也不喜歡國王的交易，我以為
: 溜馬賺到了。
: 我也覺得大家對國王的批判太過火了，你依然可找到人說，不 我覺得Sabonis很棒，很適
: 合國王。
: This one—I don’t think I found anyone who was like, "Here’s a hot take for
: ya, Zach! That’s actually a good trade for Minnesota." I don’t think I
: found anyone around the league who liked that trade for them.
: 灰狼的交易，我不覺得我可以找到人說「Zach 這是我的看法，其實這對灰狼是筆好交易」
: 我不覺得我在聯盟找到喜歡這筆交易的人。
: KG: That’s correct. If you woulda said two less draft picks, it would have
: still garnered a lot skepticism. And they gave up soooo many.
: Kirk：沒錯，如果你說少給兩個選秀籤，或許還有些懷疑，但他們給了太多了。
: 網友留言
: I am just wondering who they were bidding against.
: 我比較好奇他們跟誰競標
: Someone who is happy that they lost the bidding war
: 某人很高興他們輸了這場競標
: We’re Minnesota sports bro, obviously it was gonna be a colossal failure
: 兄弟，我們是明尼蘇達的球隊，很顯然那會是一個巨大的失敗
