The Timberwolves, at the moment, are the best team in the NBA.
They need 10 more victories to win a championship and have the right to say that themselves. The rest of us don't have to wait. We can see it.
The Denver Nuggets were the best team in the NBA last season and destroyed their competition in the playoffs to easily win the title.
In this second-round playoff series, the Wolves won the first game despite playing inefficiently on offense, then embarrassed the champs in Game 2 on Monday night in Denver, winning 106-80 after taking a 61-35 lead into halftime.
