I was wrong about the trade, but the Timberwolves won’t need it. They’ll be dangerous anyway.
Kevin McHale, Dwane Casey, Randy Wittman, Kurt Rambis, Rick Adelman, Flip Saunders, and Sam Mitchell. Seven coaches in 12 years since the Timberwolves last saw the postseason. LeBron was in his second year in the league, the Red Sox broke the Curse of the Bambino, and Barack Obama was still just a senator in Chicago. While all of those situations have changed, the Timberwolves’ has not. But Tom Thibodeau can change that.
The Chicago Bulls were known for their defense while Thibs was at the helm, particularly their pick-and-roll defense
Now if you think Thibs can’t help a team make the jump, you aren’t looking at the same numbers as me.
