2. It's only the 5th time in 18 seasons that the Wolves have won 30 games without Kevin Garnett on the roster.
Kat has been unbelievably special. He's going to make all NBA again. Kind of wish we didn't have to pay him more now. But damn he deserves it
Anybody remember that thread where this exact thing was discussed and debated?

I still don't think he would have made it if Davis wasn't put on a minutes restriction. Once again not saying he didn't deserve it but don't this he would have gotten it

If more money makes it more likely he stays... good.
The franchise has a lot more problems than an extra $8M cap hold.
Yeah, we can't constantly complain about Wiggins and his underperforming, only to wish that KAT wouldn't live up to his potential to save poor ol Taylor a few million
I agree that not even close to the Wolves biggest problems. It just sucks that, that 8 million goes against the cap. Lou Williams makes 8 million a year. 8 million is a solid rotation piece.
Once again it just stinks that the team building process is affected because media members declare KAT All NBA.
I just wish that stood l stuff didn't count against the cap

Lol. Well said! I was just looking again at KAT's stat line from last night. 41 points, 14 rebounds, 2 steals and 0 turnovers. And he did that against one of the better center in the League - a big, defensive-oriented center. I also noticed he shot 55.6 % from the field while going 8-10 from the free throw line and 3-6 (60%) from behind the arc. And of course, he's been putting up phenomenal numbers all season since Butler left.
KAT gives us a young 23-year old superstar to build around. Hopefully, we won't squander this opportunity the way we screwed up the opportunity we had with KG - the Joe Smith deal, giving up on Billups in favor of an injury-prone veteran, drafting Ebi instead of Josh Howard. The list goes on. Sadly, I see this organization giving up on Okogie the way we gave up on Billups. And I see more dumb draft decisions in our future. Right now, we don't even know who will be making our draft and other personnel decisions after this season.
Lose when we need it and win when we don't. I don't remember when anything has gone right for this franchise. KG really was an anomaly. It was amazing that he was loyal for so long to this shit show. I won't blame KAT for leaving when he does.
