Timberwolves This team seems to have lost its soul since the departure of Garnett. The team's LOGO has also been ridiculed by netizens as Huskies. Indeed, the collapse of the team is no longer worthy of being called a "wolf." NS. Even after sending away " wolfberry brother " Wiggins , the team has not changed substantially.
After the coaching change and the trade, the Timberwolves 's record has not changed, although the team picked the top pick Edwards and traded the good brothers of Downs_span2 Russell, but he was always confined in a downturn. Unlike the Kings, the overall talent of the team is among the best in the entire league. The team with two No. 1 picks has always missed the playoffs, which is a bit surprising.
As 's new crown virus is raging in the United States, Towns lost his mother and relatives. This had a great impact on his performance last season. As the absolute core of the team, Towns has always been unable to show strong style and leadership to drive this team. This is also one of the main reasons why Butler left the team at the beginning. After joining the team, Russell couldn't find his previous state, as if being sealed, from the starter to the bench, the ability to break through and make fouls disappeared like invisibility.
The team's main shooting guard Beasley has also been in prison recently. He who was once talented in the Nuggets is now like this,The team is also responsible. From the management to the coaches to the players, the team does not have a systematic plan. The execution of the team cannot be guaranteed. No matter how many stars the team has, there will be no good results.
For No. 1 Edwards, his rookie season performance has been recognized by the public, and the team's internal management has not affected its own performance. The average performance of 19+4+3 per game is still relatively good in the first-year team. Due to Russell’s downturn, the team will definitely focus on training Edwards in the new season. If the team wants to improve, it must select and employ people. Work hard in the link, the team's temperament change is the first priority of this team.
offseason Beverly , Prince join will bring some help to the team. In particular, Beverley will upgrade the team on the defensive end. Beverley, who has always been good at bite defense, will also play a leading role in the locker room. During his career from the Heat, the Rockets to the Clippers, Bever Lee has extensive experience in reshaping team culture and execution. In addition, Prince's growth can also help the team's bench upgrade, but also can restrict Beasley's stupid behavior.
The road to reconstruction of the Timberwolves has been in the wrong direction. The talent of the team is not bad, but the team’s years of poor performance and improper management have caused the current situation. If the team wants to get rid of the imprisonment, it must dig deep into the internal problems and change the inertia of the team. Whether the debut of the new season can be recognized by the fans, the answer will be revealed in half a month.
