Timberwolves fans lamented in a long post: The whole world is laughing at us. .
But who can understand the darkness and decadence of Minnesota???
Time goes back to the summer of 2005. The Timberwolves offered the then 34-year-old Sprewell a three-year, $21 million contract. The madman didn’t even bother to read it and directly ridiculed him for not having an annual salary of 10 million dollars, which is not enough to support his family. Would rather retire.
At almost the same time, the Mavericks' Michael Finley was bought out by the team. At that time, the Timberwolves offered the best conditions the league could offer at the time, a promise of a full mid-level salary and a starting position. As a result, Finley voluntarily took a salary cut to play as a substitute for the championship and went to the Spurs. finally got his wish.
I knew from that time that the price to pay for good players in a bitter cold place like Minnesota was really too high. Players who are willing to spend money are reluctant to come.
It only took one season to go from the Western Conference Finals to the lottery. KG In the end, during the three-year lottery season of the Timberwolves, we could only sign Mike James, the former Rockets abandoner who broke out for one season in the Raptors. If you want to get Ricky Davis, the boss of Cavaliers , OK, take out Szczerbiak. Clippers acquired Yaric at a premium, and we included Eddie Griffin, whom no one in the league wanted, but he was lost.
Then KG traded 7 for Celtics . After so many years, I came over step by step. Al Jefferson has good data because he has no record and popularity in the Timberwolves, and All-Star substitutes are not his share. Golden boy Rubio was reluctant to come at first after he was selected. Kevin Love , Kevin Martin and so on. . . . How many years have passed.
God opened his eyes to the two top picks, Towns, Wiggins and Galavan. It doesn't matter if you don't win, I'll give you the top pick and select Hua Zi. Towns wants to play brother basketball. Yes, in exchange for Russell , who was selected as an All-Star. And after the first round was stopped this year, the management's operations were something I couldn't even imagine back then???
Is Gobert worth so much in the first round?? Not worth it. But I changed it anyway. Is Towns' super maximum salary reasonable? Whether it is reasonable or not, you have to renew the contract. This is the reality and current situation of the Timberwolves.
Look up the history of the Timberwolves. The threshold of the Western Conference Finals has been out of reach after so many years. . .
There is only one champion per season. There are also monopolies of some dynasty teams. Not every team gets a chance.
Now the good guy has two top-paid insiders. Coupled with the promising future of Hua Zi, former All-Star Russell, potential striker Daniels and other role players with acceptable strength, what kind of bicycle do you need???
Draft pick???After being punished for so many years Didn’t you survive it too? . . .
Regardless of whether there are any subsequent transactions, this year's Timberwolves will be the most active and exciting year in transfer transactions from all aspects.
From the founding of the team to today, the Timberwolves have never fought such a rich battle, never. .
So as an old wolf fan, I cherish everything I have. This status quo is something those honor fans and championship fans cannot understand. .
