    The coaching staff doesn’t appear to realize they’re short handed either.

    ah how so?
    people told me 3pt shooting and lateral quickness on defense is the most important??

    bear in mind also timberfakes is the dream of every tanking team...full of unbelievably hyped up stars , allstars and top pick...

    @LikeMike

    hey tanking division chief, this is your future, if you are lucky, that is lololololol

    this is why tanking never works...people are just fooling themselves thinking their teams just lack some talent(ie allstars) and the rings will be taken care of....lololol

    THERES NO SUBSTITUTE FOR THE TOIL!
    THERES NO SUBSTITUTE FOR THE HARD WORK!
    THERES NO SUBSTITUTE FOR THE WINNING!
    losing cant produce winning...its against the laws of the universe let alone nba...

    Tell that to the Spurs the season before they drafted Duncan. They shut down everyone even an aged Dominique Wilkins and they wouldn’t let Robinson play even though he was ready at the end of the season. Or the Cavs before they drafted LeBron.

    Only thing that matters is having a top 5 player. If you didn’t have LeBron, Kawhi, Giannis, or Curry in the last 11 years you don’t win period. Now can you find that guy without a top pick? Sure but if you have a top pick you have the ability to select him too.

    What the TWolves are doing is just stupid but they are a stupid organization. They suffer from being a small market team who drafts terribly (2 PGs chosen over Curry) and can’t attract free agents. They will be a first round exit at best.

    Wolves were doing just fine before punting future assets for a incredibly flawed player in Gobert. Just a stupid move from day 1 and plenty of folks saw this coming. And yeah Gobert you definitely deserve to get booo'd when you play that bad.

    All in for this LOL. Imagine using those assets used to get him and actually getting real positive additions to their core minus Gobert.

    if I’m a Wolves fan, I’d be mad as hell

    they didn’t have to trade for this dude and give up everything…nobody was asking for Gobert…they weren’t a Rudy away

    How do they get better with no assets now? This man ain’t a free agent until 2026 unless he exercises his PO in the final year.

    Tim Connelly, wth were u thinking? He’s the NBA’s Bankman-Fried with this move

    Desperation and ego is a hell of a drug combo.

    true, but there wasn’t even any need for him to be desperate

    they won 46 games and gave Memphis a really good series…they had assets, Ant is only in year 3, and KAT is still just 27

    And then they throw everything away for Gobert???

    upgrade from D’angelo Russell, get a good 3&D wing player, and you’re looking pretty good if you’re the Wolves…now they’re stuck

    Ant already looks unhappy

    I watched the 4th quarter of the Pelicans-Wolves game…Gobert was getting targeted by Zion without an ounce of fear

    This guy is supposed to be a multi-time DPOY winner? Nobody respects Gobert’s defense
