Man I missed Zach Lowe. It took him long enough to write an article after Grantland died. He seriously has the best NBA mind out there amongst sportswriters.
And I completely agree with him. Minnesota's future is very bright after the disaster that's happened post-KG trade. Towns and Wiggins will be a great combo for years to come (They already look like they're ready to lead this team to a playoff birth), and they've got a great core of young pieces around them with Rubio, Lavine, Bjelca, Muhammad, and Dieng surrounding them. I even love how they brought in KG, Prince, and Miller to help nurture this young talent so that it can hit its full potential, although I am confused as to why KG and Prince are starting when it should be Bjelca and Lavine. Best of all, they are playing with a chip on the shoulder with Flip's unexpected death.
Now granted I'm partially rooting for them so that the Celtics can get another first round pick this year, but I'll always hold a soft spot for the Timberwolves after they gave us KG and Banner 17.
