Minnesota Timberwolves: 2 trades for a superstar point guard
The Minnesota Timberwolves are now sitting in a deeper Western Conference with the recent LeBron James and DeMar DeRozan moves. This would be the time to make a trade or two so your team can keep up – you would hope so at least.
The Western Conference will force the Minnesota Timberwolves out of the top-8 seeding if they don’t decide to make some moves really soon. Moreover, with the fear Jimmy Butler won’t re-sign next summer, you have to give him a reason to stay besides the money.
The rotation of the current Timberwolves roster as assembled is a top-ten team in the West, but it’s ridiculous to say that they are a shoe-in for the playoffs when looking at the standings last season.
