Why would you want to help your rivals get better? If they get Rasho, we get the candy man, I see the Wolves better.
Do you know why the Spurs wanted Tariq? cause he has an expiring contract and he can address our backup at the 3. Tariq has quite a high ceiling but due to all the injuries, his growth spurtered. I think the Spurs were willing to give him a shot at addressing our need at the 3 and if it didnt work out we trade him before the deadline.
