Glen Taylor on collapse of Timberwolves' sale to Marc Lore and Alex Rodriguez: 'It's business.'

Glen and Becky Taylor were spending a couple of weeks at their home in Naples, Fla. in mid-February, a quiet place on a narrow, passive river that leads into the Gulf of Mexico.

"We're going to miss five Timberwolves home games, which we don't want to do, but Becky likes it here,'' Glen said, and my immediate thought was, "And who could blame her?''

There was an office back in there somewhere — Taylor's Zoom room for business — and that very morning he was involved in a remote meeting with Marc Lore.

Except, this was not a discussion about the effort of Lore and partner Alex Rodriguez to complete a purchase of a majority interest in Taylor's Timberwolves.
