The #1 Seed Minnesota Timberwolves will NOT get better THIS SEASON by trading one of their bigs.
National Media still saying this doesn’t work and they need a trade to get better this season clearly do not watch the team.

The success of Tim Connelly's 2 bigs plan for the Tinberwolves can only work with KAT's buy-in with the Wolves defensive identity AND with KAT's sustained threat as an inside-outside scorer.

Rudy anchors the defense and Ant steers the offense with KAT going inbetween creating a dynamic 1-2 punch on both ends of the court.

Not to forget the supporting cast Connelly placed around the big 3 of Ant/KAT/Rudy to help buoy the defense and offense together through the addition of Mike Conely, Slomo and NAW.

And with how everyone dislike KAT for all the dumb things he does, I believe vets like Rudy and Mike Conely will help suppress his dumb-assery. Elston Turner has also been added to the coaching staff, he is a defensive coach who likes to dress down players involved in defensive breakdowns during the half-time break, and hopefully instill that grit & grind mindset from the Grizzlies, where he previously coached Mike Conely.

So in conclusion, whatever success the Wolves achieve this season, its all because of KAT.
