I know we've discussed this before... but after reading the opening of that guy's column... I hate the list (article) even more. Most of the opening is prefacing how irrelevant it all is.

Stats are nice. But, stats + context is a helluva lot better. C'mon ESPN.


[Note: Again, it's not sour grapes over the Wolves listing. My beef is with the parameters of the list. It's fraught with flaws, rendering it effectively worthless... which SHOULD have never made it to the ESPN website.]

Where is the list of teams with old cores? (Players 35 and above) The Wolves have to at least be average t now with adding Miller right? Lol
