    I need to hear the full context, but Teague’s time was coming to an end no matter what. It’s in a teams best interest to trade players, and players know that.

  2. 2 bad players being mad about a team not wanting them what a surprise

  3. FlightTop9852

    Makes me respect Okogie a lot less. The dude couldn’t buy a bucket when he was here, and opposing teams would literally leave him wide open whenever he got passed the ball. He’s lucky he had as many chances here as he got in the first place.

  4. TheeMalaka

    Don’t know why Okogie complaining he was unplayable for us and ended up in the ABSOLUTE BEST situation in Phoenix

    Sorry for saving your career bro

  5. We did ourselves dirty by signing Jeff to that contract

  6. Skolcialism

    Curious what they thought they earned and didn’t get

  7. Man teague was some hot trash so idk why hes saying anything esp when he was out the league within 6 months after we shipped his dumbass out. JO i get his grievances but man the guy didnt improve at all with us idk what more he expected and holds so much resentment even tho he landed in the perfect spot for him

  8. McCullyCullen

    Is that Tyus commenting too? What does his comment mean?

  9. Kamino86

    Teague got paid generational money to play like absolute ass, don’t know what he’s mad about

  10. PatBev_Clamped_Ja

    JO better be talking about Thibs/Saunders and not finch because by the time Finch got here, Josh was not contributing anything. Finch gave him an opportunity but he was incompatible with the rest of the roster

    And Teague was a massive fail bro had us so hyped when we got him only to put me to sleep with his dribble dribble mess.

  11. EmmitSan

    OMG Teague

    Dude, if you wanted the front office to not do you dirty, then maybe you could have…

    – shot all those open threes you had whenever people passed you the ball

    – or passed the fucking ball after you chose to pass up the open three to dribble into trouble instead

    – or, barring either of the first two…maybe played some defense?

    I thought getting rid of Rubio to sign him was horrible when we got him because we essentially traded a mediocre/good $12m player for a good $19m player (doesn’t seem like a smart upgrade for $7m). But then Teague got here and wasn’t even actually better than Rubio lol

  12. Whens Bryn Forbes going to tweet im sure he had issues with us too.

  13. ConstantTelevision93

    I hear Jeff Teague and shutter at the thought of a slow lob pass. How was he so effective at Atlanta?

  14. JO’s victim complex is weird, like you left as a free agent why are you mad, I at least get Beas & Vando’s beef.

    Gonna be crazy when the Suns crash out in the first round cause teams won’t guard him

  15. Nowell is gonna soon be in this camp. Just get an overwhelming sense he doesn’t care about this team in the slightest

  16. s_c_n_2010

    Ok so out of curiosity and boredom I went and listened to that clip.

    He went to talk to coach (Saunders) about why he got taken out of the game the night before, saying he scored 8 in a quarter (fact check: false), but Saunders said “perfect, I need to talk to you”.

    Then he says Geno (?) walked in to tell him he got traded. Not sure who he’s referring to but it sounds like he says Geno and says “he didn’t like me from the beginning.” JT thought/hoped that maybe he got traded to a playoff team but apparently they thought they were doing him a favor by trading him back to Atlanta “because he has a house there.”

    That’s pretty much it. Poor timing on breaking the news, plus trading him to a worse team.

    J(ust dribble until)eff T(ime runs out)eague

    Teague is salty KAT was mad at him when he dribbled the ball for 23 seconds

    Okogie is salty because team did not give him QO making him an unrestricted FA and he got only minimum contract.

    Tyus is salty because Rosas offered him 10/3. He ended up getting 27/3 so he has to be happy.

  19. lchalifour32

    Jeff Teague was fucking terrible after that 1st year soooo

  20. Rosas did a lot of players dirty. This isn’t surprising.

    It’s a business, but Rosas came into the job talking about family values and then was absolutely ruthless throughout his tenure. A lot of those moves ended up being great for the roster, but they’re bound to generate some bad blood.

    Disclaimer: this is basically just information lifted from many hours of listening to Dane Moore and Britt Robson

  21. mnemonicer22

    Has Jeff teague learned to make a post entry pass yet?

  22. foye2smith

    Too many podcasts in the world if Jeff Teague is getting calls to come on.

  23. Magazine_Mediocre

    I know we haven’t always been the best run organization, but why are these dudes so salty? Okogie has been throwing subtle shade at the Wolves every chance he gets this season it feels like, and that Teague stuff happened almost half a decade ago, why is he just now talking about it on a podcast?

    You’d think they would be glad to get outta here. Even Tyus apparently feels some type of way.

  24. VikingsandWolves

    I’m sorry these guys are in their feelings. Imagine making millions dribbling a ball and still being mad you weren’t treated with “respect” out the door. Excuse me, what the hell did yall do for the org to have them treat you like Kobe? I’ve been fired/laid off in way more sinister ways. Get over yourselves.

  25. OdinsLostWanderer

    I think Jeff got paid so beyond his worth he should stfu and feel blessed for such fortune.

    And also such bs drama is so very feminine. Who cares? This person said this, tweeted that, omg isn’t that crazy, what do you think about this feminine drama?

  26. LivinForThaCity

    I love how fans of this team will criticize the front office but then the moment a former player criticizes the same front office, people take offense.

  27. KATgonnaGetThatYarn

    When Jeff Teague starts a podcast you know there are too many podcasts out there.

  28. ComfortableMaster625

    Didn’t Teague say he hadn’t touched a basketball once during the off-season before his second season here?

  29. dukkthegoat

    Jeff Teague in a timberwolves jersey still gives us nightmares he was ass

  30. Remember when Teague tried to fight Ricky? What a loser.

  31. JonnyFlynnHad1373pts

    I see Tyus chimed in.

    I would be willing to bet all these guys are more pissed that here the team didn’t allow them to be their best offensive player because they were always forcing them to feed the Wiggins/Towns show.

    I know that irked Teague as he mentioned it back then. And judging by the shooting of both Tyus and Okogie since moving on you can tell this team wasn’t doing them any development favors with the roles they were asking them to play here.

    You can still see it with guys like JMac, even Conley in a few games since coming here. Extras and fodder are done dirty here. Financially they tried to undercut Tyus’ offers. I don’t know what Okogie got paid but he was a #20 pick so he probably did fine. JMac, Reid, Nowell…in more recent era certainly were getting done dirty financially. But they did all end up getting contracts that kept them out of street gutters;)

  32. swawesome52

    JO was promising his first two years with us but made absolutely no progress his entire time here. So if he means our front office doing him dirty because they didn’t resign him, then yeah, makes sense, homie had the most atrocious offensive game I’ve ever watched on a professional level (overreacting) with no sign of evolution. And Jeff Teague consistently underachieved.

  33. Theonlyfudge

    While I’m not gonna defend the wolves too much because clearly it’s a garbage org… tyus jones, Jeff fucking Teague, and Josh Okogie of all people don’t really have a leg to stand on tbh

  34. Everyone who commented on this has a reason to be a salty little bitch toward the Wolves

  35. steveworldtouring

    Love how salty ‘fans’ get at a guy joking around. tEAgUE wAS ChEEkS

  36. beardojon

    Teague was trash. You can’t do someone dirty if they’re the reason you got the first overall pick.
