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?

I swear I remember a grocery store promotion from one of the seasons following the KG trade, where if you bought a certain amount of cans of a brand of canned vegetables, you'd get a free wolves ticket. It's been almost 20 years since I believed in the team like I do right now.

My wife and I used to get the 2 tickets a 2 liter and a large single papa johns pizza for $30 deal. We saw so many Wolves games that way and helped us get through a stretch when we really couldn't afford dates.
