The Timberwolves now sit at 13-4, the current #1 seed in the Western Conference, almost 1/4 through the season.

Rudy Gobert defensive rating: 102.3 (#1 in the league)

KAT defensive rating: 104 (#2 in the league this year / averaged 109 historically)

Timberwolves: 106.6 (#1 in the league)

If they make the finals this year; are we still saying it was an overpay?

It's still one of the most lopsided trades in NBA history and they can't even keep this team together. Getting off to a good start in November is laughably early to make any predictions for how their season will play out. This is a franchise that has a single first-round series win in their entire history.
