Googs was a good player here but Tough to put him on a Mount Rushmore when he basically only played 2.5 seasons.

Each of these men enhanced my love for the game:

Rashad McCants
Andrew Wiggins
Troy Hudson
Darko Milicic

What? "But you literally think Rashad McCants is literally the Devil???!!!"

While this is 100% true, I learned more from these men than any other players in Wolves futile lore. I learned how to hate players who don't make the extra pass... who offer friendly hollow platitudes in print with no semblance of making them happen on the court... who are out to "get theirs" no matter what... who tease and tease and tease but never put in the effort or focus to be anything more than a halfway decent player on a bad team... who are just good enough to develop a following of apologists... who are ultimately bad enough to lose virtually every one of those apologists eventually.

Because of Troy Hudson, I was able to lean in hard on following the anti-Hudson... Steve Nash-led Suns and the beautiful art of teamwork and passing from PGs.
Because of McCants, I was able to enjoy Boston's "ubuntu" gimmick with a knowing nod about the importance of team chemistry/construction.
Because of Darko, I was able to expand my repertoire of "in the annals of NBA history...no player who was (this) suddenly became (this)" schtick with confidence.
And I'm now eager to find out what my disdain for watching Andrew Wiggins coast and loaf and dribble into 22 foot turnarounds will do for my overall NBA fandom.
