The Wolves if they played in the East playoffs

The more I watch the East playoffs, the more I think the Wolves (assuming Dieng is involved and Pek is healthy), would have been a bigger threat to beating Miami than any of the other seven teams.
This game tonight between Indiana and the Wiz is just ugly. Not great defense, just bad basketball. And Brooklyn is not good--just barely good enough to beat a decent Toronto team.
The Wolves won 40 this year in a tough conference, and blew a lot of close games (or simply gave them away--but lets not re-live that). I think they're one tough wing player away from being a serious factor next year, especially if teams like the Spurs and Mavs fall off (they have to eventually right?).
The best hope right now to fill that need might be Shabazz. I have to say he surprised me (will admit I thought we wasted a pick on him). He's got some dirty in him. Not afraid. Whoever ends up coaching next year needs to give him a chance.
