It’s time, Minnesota Timberwolves fans... The second round is upon us for the first time in 20 years.
Across the sports landscape, winning a playoff series is but a ho-hum achievement. For Wolves Nation, this has been two decades in the making. An entire generation of Minnesota sports fans have grown up while the Timberwolves have floundered around in the cellar of the NBA. As the incompetence on 1st Ave. continued to mount, the Timberwolves were left in a perpetual free fall with zero hope in sight. To make matters worse? As the rest of the NBA world thrived under the stewardship of the LeBron James and the Golden State Warriors’ dynastic run, the Timberwolves were thrown into the corner and forcefully given a dunce cap as the rest of the NBA routinely placed the Wolves as the butt of all their jokes.
