If they make The Finals, then it's absolutely not an overpay; actually, I'd consider it an amazing trade.
The Timberwolves have never gotten that far and I don't believe they really had contending expectations, recently.
Even if they make the Western Conference Finals, then the trade was worth it. I feel you have to factor the franchise's history into this. The decade-plus of 'Spooky Wolves' discussion disappointed every single year.
If they finally get over that hump and appear to be a significant challenger come Playoff-time, then I firmly believe the trade should be considered well worth the price.
I don’t think we’ll be using over pay if they win a ring or make it to the finals for sure.
However, I will still always think they gave up too much for gobert no matter what. Seems like the wolves treated it like a more serious bidding war than it ever was.
If the Wolves got a ring, I'd trade another 4 picks to the Jazz just as a thank you gift.
4? I would trade another 10
