The Timberwolves now sit at 13-4, the current #1 seed in the Western Conference, almost 1/4 through the season.
Rudy Gobert defensive rating: 102.3 (#1 in the league)
KAT defensive rating: 104 (#2 in the league this year / averaged 109 historically)
Timberwolves: 106.6 (#1 in the league)
If they make the finals this year; are we still saying it was an overpay?
Even if we get to the WCF and follow it up another solid playoff run (WCSF or WCF), I think I would consider the trade a W for us.
This franchise has all of 2 series wins and both were 20 years ago…we’re not exactly awash in success.
