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?

Yes, it's still an overpay because they could have paid less and still gotten Gobert.

Geez, I don't understand how people don't understand this. What Gobert ends up doing or doesn't is irrelevant. It's what the conditions were at the time.
