As a Timberwolves fan, I'd say it's ALREADY worth it. There were multiple full seasons where we literally barely won as much the whole year as have right now at 13. We're relevant. We're fun to watch. We're playing for today. We're in contention. We haven't had that in 20 years. I don't care what non-Timberwolves fans think tbh. They don't get it. Most of yall skip around with your favorite players anyway. You don't know what it's like to follow a losing team for decades. Only Kings bros can talk to us. I'm not losing sleep over some basic bench players and some #25-30 draft picks. We aren't #1 in the West without Gobert. Full stop.
Now I'm gonna enjoy this season that (barring injuries) will continue to be a blast
It definitely isn't already worth it because it can still go sideways. We shouldn't be so quick to crown them in November. However they are doing everything they should be at the moment.
Yeah this whole thread feels like people pushing backing against the early overreactions with…more overreactions. The Wolves are a tough 10-game stretch away from being like a 5-seed. The Pelicans and Grizzlies both spent about a week in December last year as the 1-seed in the West, and how did their seasons end up?
Let’s at least maybe get halfway through the season before we start applauding a trade for turning a team into a championship contender.
i feel like pelicans would have kept up the momentum had zion stayed healthy. wouldnt compare to them. this wolves team looks very strong, nobody is crowning them as champions, just celebrating a very good start
