Minnesota Timberwolves

Looking to identity and subsequently acquire what’s missing in your life? You’ve come to the right place. NBA power rankings are here. Before we begin, there is one housekeeping note: What follows is not the direct result of records alone. There will be lottery teams ranked higher than playoff teams and everything in between. Power [...]

Suns forward Markieff Morris had a very productive Wednesday night against the visiting Wolves in leading them to a 106-97 win, where he finished with a game-high of 24 points while only missing 5 of his 15 attempts from the field. And to show that things were really going his way—his twin brother Marcus Morris [...]

We all know DeAndre Jordan can throw it down with a purpose—and many teams have become a witness to that as he’s been doing this all year long with Blake Griffin. And on their 89-76 victory against the Wolves, Jordan provided us with another emphatic alley-oop slam, which was probably one of the best dunks [...]

Thou shall fear no evil, because the NBA power rankings are here to save the day. It’s been forever since we last saw each other. Like, a whole week or something. A lot has happened since then. The Warriors are clearly tanking, trying to avoid a first-round dance with the Thunder; the Nuggets fired Brian [...]

Kevin Garnett is the man. That is, now that he’s back on the Minnesota Timberwolves. It was easy for him to get under your skin after he left Minnesota the first time, whether he was with the Boston Celtics or Brooklyn Nets. It didn’t matter if you were rooting for another team that night or [...]

Goodbye, All-Star discussion and NBA trade deadline. Hello, playoff race. It’s that time of year again. The focus is on the playoffs and various position-jockeying that’s going on. This week we have a lot of movement to cover, from the Blazers’ slump, to the Spurs’ mounting cankers, to the Thunder’s improbable surge, to the Sixers [...]

In the standings the Timberwolves are the second-worst team in the league at a record of 11-42 for the first half of the season. There’s honestly not much to look forward to anymore except the upcoming draft lottery and of course the development of their young guns like Andrew Wiggins and Zach Lavine, the keys [...]

Stand up, folks. Stretch. Bend. Flex. Make old-folk noises. The NBA trade deadline is finally upon us. This implies two things: First, real, live basketball is about to begin again. Fist-pump it up. Second, the rumors are flowing like vodka and tequila and gin and rum and whiskey during J.R. Smith’s weekend-long vacation from the city of Cleveland. Navigating those [...]

Heigh-ho, heigh-ho, it’s off to the 2015 NBA All-Star Game we go. Okay, so, I’m pretty sure “heigh-ho” refers to yawning or disappointment, but screw it. I wanted to both rhyme and write “heigh-ho,” so let’s just pretend. Anyway, the NBA is speeding toward its All-Star break, leaving a trail of injuries, playoff-seeding battles and [...]

Andrew Wiggins is going to be a superstar. No, he’s probably not the second coming of LeBron James, as he was made out to be just before playing his college ball at Kansas. Then again, that same notion seems a lot less ridiculous now than it did leading into the NBA draft. Or just a [...]
