Ha ha, this is merely for fun, seeing that there's hardly any news going around the world about the Minnesota Timberwolves, but I'd like to point out that this scenario is possible if other teams cooperate. The 2010 NBA draft features a much deeper draft than the last years, featuring a plethora of big men, great wing players, and one soon to be elite point guard in the NBA, John Wall. Currently, ...
The Minnesota Timberwolves. What can you say about that team? Well, how about they only won 15 games this last season. The most horrible defensive NBA team I've seen in a long time. That pretty much sums up the "team" as a whole, and that just like head coach Kurt Rambis said, "we were only a team because we had the same uniform on", a Zen Master 2 type quote. The previous season, ...
Evan Turner Expect the Minnesota Timberwolves to be in full 100% go-get-him mode. The best college basketball player has just hired an agent, meaning that he will enter the 2010 NBA draft, a wise decision by a player whose game will be rivaled by the NBA's elite. David Kahn, the Minnesota Timberwolves GM knows that the Minnesota Timberwolves desperately need an all-around 2-guard. And with their draft position, it's pretty much ...
  Lord forbid that Evan Turner returns for his senior season and John Wall wants to return to Kentucky for his sophomore season. Evan Turner should be on the Timberwolves radar and would improve the team drastically, along with the cap space and the other two draft picks in the first round. And with the two second round picks that the Wolves also have, you can see that this is a big draft ...
Darko Milicic has started to actually play well, posting his second double double in six games, while helping the Wolves win their 15th game of the season. When people say that the Wolves suck because Darko sucks for them, it's really a disgusting attitude to have because quite simply put, Darko is playing very well. He also works very well next to Al Jefferson—Jefferson loves the left block and Darko loves ...
The trio of the future? Maybe not, maybe so. Development and patience are virtues, and although the Wolves have only won 15 games this season, there have been a few bright spots for the Wolves going forward. And although for most games it's been Al Jefferson and Kevin Love, Darko Milicic has stepped his play up as well. It's clear to see that Al Jefferson is just now starting to get his rhythm and ...

Darko Milicic May Return to the Minnesota Timbervolves Next Year?

14 games ago, the Minnesota Timberwolves traded veteran forward Brian Cardinal for Darko Milicic. Losing Brian Cardinal was actually a big loss as far as leadership and a voice in the locker room goes. In enters Darko Milicic, a player that stands seven feet plus, with an amazing wingspan, a great build, and nimble feet that enables him to close out on shooters and block shots. Watching the footage of Darko in ...
(long sigh...) Ok, this season is filled with losses, lost effort, horrible defense, and poor offensive execution. What is there to take positive from this season? David Kahn, the Minnesota Timberwolves proved one thing, he means what he says. Although all the offers, David Kahn has kept his word by not trading any of his core players, and using this season to evaluate the players that he has before trading them. While David Kahn has ...

Keys To the Wolf Den: Al Jefferson Will Be Traded for “Love”

Posted: 18th March 2010 by Matthew Hayden in NBA
Yeah I said it before, Kevin Love will be an All-Star before it's all said and done. At the mere age of 21 years old, he's averaging a 15 points and 11 rebounds in only 29 MPG. Appearing fat, a little slow, not particularly strong, Kevin Love has the intangibles to be an all-star power forward, and one of the best rebounders to ever play the game. Possessing a variety of incredible skills ...
The Minnesota Timberwolves are subject to many topics of disgrace and disgust, everywhere from the players, to the coaches, to the decision making of the GM. One of those many topics have to be the head coach running the triangle offense with a young Wolves team. Many teams have failed to run the offense successfully, and the only teams that have run the offense successfully were sporting two of the top ...
