Timberwolves path to success
win the 2021 NBA lottery.
Is it too early to scout the top 3 prospects?

Every game that goes by I look upon the roster and wonder how we thought this collection of talent could come close to .500

Only a 40% chance of getting a top 3 pick Hockey, even if we end up with the worst record in the NBA.
We have ZERO incentive to tank. It's obvious by now this team won't make the playoffs. But I would certainly hope they eventually get KAT back and start playing more competitively. It would be nice to head into the offseason with a bit of positive vibes around the team.

Q, based on what we've seen these games without KAT, 40% is sounding a lot more likely than playoffs.
Not sure what the likelihood of positive vibes will be when we end up with the 6th pick in a loaded draft, only to remember it goes to Golden State.

But it would be even worse if we tank our way to another bottom 3 season AND not get a pick, which is the more likely scenario. No thanks.

Re: Timberwolves path to success
All the Timberwolves need is one more super high draft pick... maybe another max contract guy... and a few more years of hope.

Re: Timberwolves path to success
Maybe we can deal Towns to Golden state for some combo of wiseman our 1st and their 1st and start over from scratch. Should be a good restart but wait til deadline.
Re: Timberwolves path to success
The path to success begins with replacing Gersson Rosas, who I now proclaim the second coming of David Kahn. Other than that, I have no thoughts or suggestions.

Actually think you might be on to something here. It would be contingent on finding someone else to take Russell too (without giving up any picks) and having new decision makers in place for the draft. Give us our 2nd back too (along with the two firsts) and let's roll.
Re: Timberwolves path to success
Ok I understand that everyone hates rosas, I get it im sick of watching small ball. I'm sick of watching Ryan Saunders coach. I'm sick of being the laughing stock of the NBA. But don't you think he deserves at least a little time to but his best lineup on the floor. I mean Kat and Dlo have played 3 career games together and they are 2-1. He found under the radar gems in Naz and Jmac and the jury is still out on Nowell. His 1st round pick last year just had a 20pt game tonight on 8-13 shooting. Edwards has at least shown legit flashes of what he could be.
I'm not the biggest rosas fan but I think it's silly to call him David Kahn when his master plan has played 3 games together (2-1). He might be that but think it's really premature
